Removal of Optimus/Lineaum dipole tweeters


Anyone have any experience in removing these tweeters and/or the accompanying woofers from the Radio Shack Optimus LX-5 and LX-10 speaker systems?
Would like to experiment with these units,but don't want to damage them in doing so.
All advice is appreciated.My thanks in advance.

It appears that there are 3 screws holding the "tweeter assembly" down (left/right/rear) on the LX-5.The LX-10 appears to have the left/right screw hold-down,but has a flange affixed over the wiring coming out of the cabinet.
If loosening these screws,can the tweeter assembly be removed safely and intact? Thanks in advance.
Thank you Elevick and Ait.Have the LX-10s in pieces.Ceriously considering a switch to the Aurum Cantus 7" drivers.Will be replacing components in the crossover and rewiring.
Two questions:
(1) Would I be better off with "new" cabinets/better built?
(2) Are the tweeters exactly the same on the 5/5ii/10s?
Thanks for the help and advice-in advance,Tom


The cabinet maybe improved but this experiementation is not recommended unless you know how to measure box/driver/crossover properly, YMMV. Take the simple approach, due deligence research at Madisound as recommended and try small upgrades first.

I found re-wiring the 10's to yield nice improvement. Have not had the need to do anything else besides stuffing the cabinet.
La45 is correct from what I know.
If I were really concerned, I would get some dampening sheets and coat the entire inside of the speakers...
