Replacing Blown Meadowlark Blue Heron 2 Tweeter


I'm seeking guidance on how to remove a blown tweeter from a Meadowlark Audio Blue Heron 2 loudspeaker without damaging the cabinet.

The tweeter is recessed slightly (flush with the ash baffle) in a circular cutout. There are six T-15 screws around the perimeter of this ScanSpeak tweeter. I have removed these but the tweeter doesn't budge. There is no way to pry it out. I have a replacement tweeter at the ready but I can't get the old one out. There is no access from the rear of the loudspeaker cabinet where the crossover is located.

Any ideas, or help from any one experienced with this loudspeaker, would be greatly appreciated!

Put a 3 x10 wood screw in one of the holes, cock it so that the threads grip into the sides of the hole, use a set of pliers and apply steady pull outwards and it'll pop right out.

If you need a picture of how to do this shoot me an email and I'll send you a picture

Good luck
