I'm by all means no professional but i can tell you from what i see is that it appears your tinsel leads have definitely separated. Now, as to 'why'. I can think of your amp pushing to much power to the cone which in turn caused it to excurse out farther than intended causing the tinsel leads to be over extended and snap. Or the loud "pop" you're referring to is very likely to have been your amp clipping.

Recone I think Fi can do it. What is your box tuned to? And how is your SSF set?

I'd never let David touch an old XXX. Fi needs to do it. You can order a recone right from the website.

I agree with everyone about going with Fi. It will take a while but it'll be well worth it.
