My speaker is broken like on the image above and it sounds horrible. Do you know where to buy similar speaker in order to replice it?

Does anybody know, if I can get a replacement speaker for the subwoofer of the JBL 2.1. system? Thanks!

I was unable to find a replacement for the Atlas subwoofer it uses and ended up “recycling” the whole thing :( I’ve since replaced it with the the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1s and love them.
