Repairing the dome
Rather than possibly damaging the dome further.... You can drill a small hole in the back of the dome driver. Carefully blow pressure into the hole until the dome is returned back to the original shape. Tape the hole shut.

The drivers are custom 😡 They are marked Logitech behind them.
Logitech carries NO replacement parts/satellites.
If I build new ones, what do I do of all the satellites?
I bought them cheap, I don't like them(Subwoofer sounds like crap and is much too loud), they're not powerful, one satellite is broken, my card is 7.1 and the speakers 5.1.
I bought them for 70$ but any other stores sell them 90$.
I think I'll keep them like this while waiting to build my first speakers, and once the new ones will be ready, I could make a 4.1 system for my Ensoniq AudioPCI?(I have real speakers plugged to the Ensoniq, not a big deal)
The speakers are too old to be returned, it makes a month and a half I bought them I think.

I new there was a reason for people to fear getting involved with English courts.
So... for new speakers, what would you recommend?
The use : I listen to compressed audio(OGG&MP3), movies and my brother play some games(And he's the one who got his foot under the wire and pulled it without knowing it) so I'd like something that is cheap but sounds good. The Audax and Tangband speakers would not fit to my need , the Tangbands are 25$! and the Audax are out of stock. 175$ just for the Tangbands is pretty much for me(Too young to work...)
Here's the link to the speakers section of a local shop:
http://addison-electronique.com/pdf/Section-A.pdf
Page 9-18, about every models are under 20$(Small woofers to piezos). This is a surplus store, so they have some Sony and the like custom models without specs... There are also Addison brand ones. The only names they give are Crown and Acoustic Research sometimes.

Those guys sell new thimble tweeters...
where are the current one's crossed over... that will help us figure what is suitable.

Dunno, but when I opened the satellite, there was a capacitor inside it, I don't remember it's value nor I know the impedance.
Actually, if nothing suitable can be found, I guess I'll build a complete set, these Logitech X-530 sound really bad.
There's a bit of highs, if I boost them, the set sounds as if they were made of cheap CTS piezos. The sound is practically muted between I say 500Hz and 1.5k and the "bass compensation technology" makes a compression effect on the subwoofer.(It sounds too much loud too. headaches...)
I think I'll build 7 satellites and 1 subwoofer instead.
Take a piece of insulation tape or something similar. Stick it to the dustcap and pull it out slowly. The cap should come back to shape. I did it with a woofer I had and it worked, though there is a little mark left on the cap.

Its value & the nominal impedance of the tweeter will give us an idea....
