    Hi Superbee,

    You might try moisturizing the dented area to make it a little supple first, then affix a Dixie or styrofoam cup to a vacuum cleaner hose, and suck out the dent using the VC's low setting. I did this procedure with one of my 4313B's tweeter and it worked. Hope it works for you, too.

    With the house full of kids and my 2202's at strategic height I have experienced this far too many times....

    I have used a needle. The downside is that it leaves a small hole.

    Masking Tape

    I've had success using masking tape,fold it in a circle and lightly push it into the dent then pull out,for harder ones I have used gaffer tape but be careful as it sticks like shit to a blanket.
    So add this to the list

    I have used duct or gorilla tape on the domes of my 033 tweeters with some success. In the past I used the vacuum cleaner.
