How to remove B&W 800 N midrange??

I am pretty sure the driver is blown and would like to remove it to test/replace. It looks like the midrange driver is held in by a threaded rod that goes through to the rear of the enclosure. Does anyone know for sure? I am the second owner, so there is no warrantee to be concerned with. Thanks.

Yes, I replaced my mid driver according to the instructions above. Not hard at all. The problem turned out to be a fuse type device built into the crossover. B&W sent a new crossover at no cost. Problem solved. However, my speaker made no sound at all. Different from your problem.
