Remove the rubber from the bottom of the speaker, use a medium blue plastic spudger to gently work its way under the rubber and slowly peel off for each of the three feet. The order does not matter.

Step 2

Remove the six 11 mm Philips #1 screws found underneath the foam to remove the steel outer metal frame.
Once the screws come off, keep them safely off to the side.

Step 3

Remove the metal frame gently and set aside.

Step 4

Remove the two remaining 11 mm Philips #1 screws holding the base and set them aside.
