How To Re-Edge Broken Speakers

You have two obvious choices: either buy a new speaker or replace the entire driver assembly. The hidden option number three is to repair the speaker yourself. As long as the paper cone isn't damaged then really all you have to do is replace the foam and gaskets around the paper cone.
