With nothing to lose and a speaker to gain, I've removed the cone (cutting around the lip) and fixed them before. Almost always it's the thin copper wire which breaks at some point before it begins it's spiral around the "cylinder." To find it I'd use a needle (or exacto blade tip) and a magnifying glass. If no break was visibly evident, I'd guess the break is at the "meeting point" where the lead connects to the inner copper strand. If a break was visibly found, I'd simply scrape the copper wire clean of the resin coating, then apply solder. It works! Then I'd simply glue the lip back in the exact positiion it was originally. Of course, if the break is inside the coiled part, then there's little you can do.
