Relax dude, you simply need to send it back to Alpine to get the speaker re-coned dude. :)

Was this person working for a store perchance? If so, it's their problem not yours.

You need to send it to one of alpines dealers who will then send it to Alpine in Melbourne.... You cannot go to Alpine directly as they only deal with dealer...

take them back to the place you bought them and say "They were like this when I pulled them out of the box"
