If you can see where it came loose, you should be able to solder it.

It is a capacitor that blocks bass going to the tweeter.

Wait, I saw it wrong. It is a choke coil that blocks highs from going into the woofer.

I may have mispoke on the other post then, considering OP made two posts about the same thing.

Is it actually an inductor?

Yes, it is known as choke coil, inductor, reactor. Basically a highs blocker.

You should be able to solder that joint back if you know how to solder properly. If not.. take it to an Audio shop or a Computer repair shop
