I just finished doing a writeup of how to repair PSB Image tweeters. I haven't found any information on the internet on this topic, but there is floating around many recommendations for a third party tweeter which I do not think is a great match. In the hope that this information is useful to someone I'll leave a link to my blog/whatever:

Thanks for your time and effort with this.Have a pair of t55's with this issue but doubted the third party tweeter idea also.I'll be trying your repair.
Hi Njaal Brekke @elenhinan , glad to see your elaborated blog post!
I bought my PSB Image 2B way back in 2005, but I accidentally pushed the dome with my finger as you can see on the attached photo and I've always wished to fix it, since I couldn't manage to correct it.
It is amazing the lengths you went to repair it. I don't have the ferrofluid or acetone, but the tweeters still seem to sound like before (not sure I notice the pushed one), and since I see you separate the dome from the magnet from the inside, maybe I can push it back with a Q-tip again! You say "be extremely careful since the wires are very thin, and if you break them it’s game over". Do you think I can push it back without breaking?
