I have a pair of Paradigm V3's (been loving them) that I got off of Ebay and I very recently started noticing this flapping/farting/extra vibration noise whenever I played any deeper bass, on one of my speakers; it definitely wasn't there before. So like an idiot the first thing I did was practically saw off the front with a kitchen knife (you can't take the grill off) to see if there was a tear somewhere. Wasn't one, but I did notice that applying a small amount of pressure to the cone stopped the sound. I replaced the grill/wood back on (I'll need wood glue for that later) and then decided to unscew the back instead.
I didn't see any wires or capacitors messed up inside, so I then unscrewed the driver and pulled it out. At first there was nothing visibly wrong so I tried gently pressing on the cone, and I think I found what the culprit is:
It looks like the cone broke away from the surround (or half of it at least; the other half is fine). The surround itself is still in fine shape, though. Am I right in thinking this is the problem? If so, what kind of glue should I use to glue the two back together?
Thanks
