What I did was not unsimilar to what is shown in the posted video. Definitely protect the face of the cabinet with something soft enough not to scratch and firm enough to not allow a dent in case something goes a little wrong. Carl at Alon/Nola used an everyday product called Mortite rope caulk to seal the drivers in his acoustic suspension boxes, and it was a bear to peal a driver away from so proceed with caution - it is not a race!

When I upgraded the drivers in my Alon speakers years ago, Carl Marchisotto recommended I use a certain sized screw that was just bigger than the hole in the driver, which was screwed into the front mounting hole of the driver until it became engaged and then I was able to pull the driver out from the front, similar to what was recommended by @elliottbnewcombjr I suggest trying the recommended methods posted below before prying against the cabinet, which seems to be asking for trouble. |
