How to replace tweeter on new Klipsch speaker
Thanks, Zd542. It appears that the screws holding in the drivers would be accessible by removing the twelve rubber plugs on the face that are used to hold the grill. Any idea how to remove the rubber plugs? Looks like a special tool is required.

Sam Cook
"Night Beat" and "My Kind of Blues" are both tops, but you really cannot go wrong with ANYTHING Sam Cooke recorded. Or, as Michael Scott, the World's Best Boss, would say: It's all good!" 
Why is the price of new tonearms so high
Hey Johnnyb53,Thanks for the cool pic. Do you have a photo of the later upgrade model with the VTA adjustment? 
thinking of trying vinyl
Forget the turntable, vinyl is such a hassle. So---where is this used record store? 
Why gold?
