Saving a Worn-out 'scratchy' Speaker
Overloading loud-speakers can damage the voice-coil and lead to a scatchy sound.
No need to scap them, here's a simple method of reviving them. And at no cost!
Supplies
Soft toilet or face tissue - unused.
Remove the case to reveal the speaker
Apply slight pressure with your finger (or something soft) to areas of the speaker cone until you find a spot and pressure that makes the sound clearer.
Carefully insert lightly crumpled soft tissue between the cone and the metal housing, adjusting to get the clearest quality sound.
Re-assemble the radio.
