Just bought 37-620 want to get it working
#16

Doctormap,

Sorry to hear about your speaker damage, but it can easily be fixed. I've used Aleene's Original Tacky Glue and a used dryer sheet for reinforcement over the tear. Aleene's glue is flexible and dries clear and can be found at Joann's Fabric or Michaels. The dryer sheet, after it has been used, is very light and very strong. You can probably find a You Tube video that shows how to do this. I'm sure you'll also get some more advice on this as well.

I would recommend cutting a round piece of cardboard to cover the speaker cone to protect it from further damage.

Tom
