I am sure this topic has been discussed many times but being new to this, I figure why not be straight forward and ask.

I have some speakers on several radios that have tears or rips in the cones. The material is all there, but there are rips.

What methods can I use to repair the tears. I have read that some people use fabric glue. Others will use speaker glue and coffee filters, nail polish, etc, etc.

What works for you and what would be the easiest way to go.

Thanks.
