Hi I need to get a replacement for the driver. Would you know the specs or where to get them from? Bose support has not been very helpful with this , since I live outside of the US and repair would be expensive, I need to purchase the driver only to fix it myself. Any advise would be appreciated.
Hello I needed to reconnect my capacitor on my Bose Soundtouch 10 after dropping speaker. The IFixit steps to open the speaker were perfect! After reconnecting capacitor, shaking the speaker was no longer required.
