Hi, accidently broke one of the two lead out wires in my focal 165v speaker - you know, the wires that are glued to the speaker cone. How do you reattache this wire? what glue do you use? thanks

Uh, glue? No, the tinsel wires on a loudspeaker are not glued. These are the electrical connections between the terminals and the speaker voice coils and they are soldered. If you have broken one, your safest bet is to take it to a speaker repair shop rather than try and fix it yourself.

I remember i pulled a pair of speakers out of a triumph spyder one time speakers were so old the cone was seperating from around the basket so the owner hot glued all around the speaker to try and seal it, the glue was so hard and there was so much the cone wouldnt move.
