People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

I think he means one of the wires to the voice coil is cut. I would just take a small piece of wire and make a loop on the wire and on the remaining voice coil braid wire and solder a patch on it. Then solder your extended wire back to the terminal.
