tweeter replacement, original glued in

Scratch that it doesn't mention Michael Green in the title.

erik,

Did exactly that and it is quite solid.

jond,

You are right, I've seen his posts.  Thanks.

Pooh.

Is this the type of tweeter with small screws that hold the tweeter motor to the faceplate? Those usually have replaceable domes, AND you could, if very careful, unscrew it, leaving only the faceplate attached. After removing the motor you could insert a thumb, or perhaps a razor from the back.
I am not responsible for any blood loss this may cause you though! :)


Best,
E

erik,

I already got to there and now have it in pieces.  I went to Madisound and ordered two replacements as closely matched as I can.  We're not in rarified air here.  Just need to remove the faceplates now.  That's the challenge without unnecessary damage to the cabinet.

One thing you might try, if you have a heat gun or a hair dryer. Heat the cabinet around the tweeter then apply ice in a. Sandwich bag directly to the tweeter. The sudden contraction might break the bond and while the glue is soft, it may come loose.
