Default Monitor problem

I have a set of M-audio DX4 monitors. Wel lanyways I left for the weekend and when I got back my monitors domes were pushed in and my family swears they never touched them. Its weird how all 4 domes are pushed in

I was told from someone to try using a vacume carfully to try to suck it back but that did not work. Does this effect sound in anyway. The top little domes are pushed in too. Anyway help would be awsome

Somebody got you good. How do all the domes get pushed at the same time? That's very interesting.

Hmm... only thing I could think of is to somehow get them back out from the front of the speaker... was someone angry with you regarding something? seems very odd that they would ruin a piece of gear like that... You might consult with a local electronics repair shop to see if they have any other tricks off hand to get them back out... Instead of a vaccum, you could always try a shop vac if you have access to one. The Shop Vac's have stronger power to them and might be able to help, but might ruin them in the same respect... I would consult a repair shop before proceeding... Goodluck

No one was angry at all. It could have been my grandmother cleaning my room and wiped them down. I will try a repair shop to get the fixed. Thanks

well, good news then is noone is trying to sabotage your gear... on the other hand, I might reccomend the purchase of a good feather duster for speakers in the future. Goodluck
