while removing the screws with the other

hand.

Caution: The woofer is approximately

10 pounds with the weight unevenly

distributed.

Woofer replacement continued:

(solid black) cables are still attached to

the woofer terminals. Notice the positive

Caution: The horn weighs about 5

pounds, and the weight is unevenly

distributed.

driver following the previous section

diaphragm look like after they have

been removed from the horn assembly.

plate adapter simply by pushing down

diaphragm (right) both look like. Place

the new diaphragm (part # coming

same steps as above, but backwards

diaphragm should now be pumping

out those highs again. Sweet, you just

replaced a diaphragm!
