my hurt RE

I tried to install my RE comps today, but became frustarted when things weren't going the way I had wanted them. While trying to mount the speaker, the drill slipped and popped a whole in the cone and there is also a small split in the surround. (see picture below)

Will it still work, sound okay, or and I screwed out of a speaker?

See if you can buy a replacement.

Or, be evil and tell them it came that way, so that it's covered under warranty

well, the basket or frame whatever it is was bent upon arrival but I think I might just buy another one.

I was at a funny angle with a crappy drill and some not very friendly screws. Add in my frustration and I was bound to have something go wrong on me.
