When installing my Alpine Type R Component system, my screwdriver slipped and poked a tiny hole in the rubber surround on the speaker. Will this effect sound quality at all? Is there any way I could fix this? Maybe some rubber cement? I don't know >< I'm not real good on electronics so any help would be greatly appreciated. The hole that I poked is extremely tiny maybe like a millimeter or two. Thanks a lot if you can help. Eric

 

Go to your local autoparts store, and buy a tube of black rtv silicone. Should only be a few bucks. Take a little on your finger, flip your sub upside down, and smear it on the inside. Will do the trick.

 

If it's a rubber surround, I'd dab a very small amount of silicone on the back side of the tear, then leave the speaker out in the open for 24 hours while the silicone dries.

 

Cool thanks That's what I figured just wanted to make sure ^^.
