Default Woofer removal - Infinity Interlude IL10

cecilrhayd,

I'm having the same problem, but the IIIb's do not have a back plate
to remove. I have removed all the four screws, but the woofer remains
in place. Can you assist me in what I need to do in order to remove
the driver. Do I need to rotate the woofer to remove it???? Please
help.... Thanks...

Lyn, if the woofer you're trying to remove is going to be replaced or rebuilt,
there's no harm in cutting part of the cone out to expose the woofer's frame.
Then you can use a tool like a crow bar to apply some serious force to that
frame to pull it out of the recess it's mounted in. Some mfgrs, especially
high end ones like Infinity, use sealing compounds to make things air-tight,
that have a lot in common with glue. Work your way around the circumference
of the woofer applying a little force at a time so as not to warp or bend the
frame if you plan on having the woofer reconed - a bent or warped frame is
junk.
