    What's up guys? I'm new here

    I got some problems with my tweeter, and hope to get some help from you guys.
    I was measuring the size of my desk, and the magnet inside the tweeter pulled the tip of the tape measure, and it got damaged (see the photo).
    So here's my question: What type of tweeter I should buy to replace it? Is it TWVE1004?
    Also, can I still use the monitor with this condition?

    this should make little to no difference to the sound. as long as you can live with it aesthetically there is no need to replace

    I agree. Just make sure no dust enters the membrane.

    It's just the dust cover. No biggie. You can replace it if you really want to, but it has no affect on the sound.

    You can even IMHO use a black marker to hide the damage a little
