I really can't see a way of pushing it back into shape. If I can find the wide vac pipe I'll try sucking as non-invasive. Otherwise I may just leave it.
These may end up as my main speakers for a while. On the face of it they are pretty good - they are certainly widely used professionally as nearfield monitors. Neither Ruth nor I like how they look for domestic use. I've got various fabrics including some speaker grille cloth so there's scope for trials.
Another annoyance is driving them. As expected my Quad 33 hasn't really got enough output, even with the gain controls on the speakers turned right up. I'll frig some resistive attenuators from the output of the 405 as a temporary measure. About 8:1 attenuation should be about right, the controls on the speakers will do the fine adjustment.
