Thiel CS1.6 How to remove woofer?

Lay the speaker down on its side, unscrew and open the bottom plate, then unscrew the four mounting bolts on woofer and you can move the woofer out from the bottom.

Thanks!  This'll be my late morning project.  Need to see if the drivers have separated at the spider or a dead coil.  

Tried it; my arms aren't long enough.  Is this the only way????

Well, I managed it.  If anyone reads this post the removal sequence is to remove the bottom with the x-over, unscrew the driver, unsolder the leads (remember where they hook up), pull out ALL the fiberglass (wear long sleeves and gloves!) but wait, there is a screw and washer going from front to back which holds the back part of the insulation, then the speaker will slide out.  Now to test that sucker! If the drivers need to be replaced I may just scrap it for the good parts.

I’m not sure what you originally paid for the damaged speakers, but I think the cost to repair them will be well worth it. One of the last genuine Jim Thiel designs.
