how do you patch a speaker?
ii have a jl w6v2 and a hole a little bit bigger than the size a quarter but in a triangle shape. just wondering how i could patch it or what could i do to fix it?
Where is the hole? I once poked a hole in the surround of a woofer with a screwdriver. $75 mistake... If your hole is in the surround, they won't be a diy fix. If it's in the cone, I suppose you could find something stiff and thin to glue to the cone.
I don't see why you can't just use some epoxy or other semi-flexible-hardening adhesive and just patch it up. If you can, use some tweezers or something to pull out the flap , glue around the edges, position it back into place and let the glue cure before using. Should be fine...

you can't really patch a speaker cone or surround very well and expect it to sound good, or last too long.
Once they become damaged they pretty much garbage. Any fix or modification changes the weight balange, and movement tolerances of the voicecoil.

You need to hit the GF up for some clear nail polish, [or nail repair I think its called] then get some *** wipe, repair the "triangle flap" as best as you can, [using nail polish] then, cut a square of TP, [*** wipe] a little bigger then the "hole" and lay it in, over the "hole", and use lots of nail polish soak the TP, just like laying fiberglass, do one layer on each side, I have had speakers work for years after a repaid
