Anyone know how to get this sucker open? I've got all visible screws (including under rubber foot) and the level control pot nut removed. Apparently I need to remove the front grill but it won't budge. Do I just have to get brutal with it? I'm not having luck Googling for it.

Re: Zylux (Dell) A425 subwoofer disassembly
Can you remove the back panel and see inside ? I'm wondering if there are clips that need to be released to remove the front ?
Just found this video. The sub looks the same. It doesn't show the front being removed just the securing points after the front has come off.
Mute the sound if you are offended by swearing lol

Re: Zylux (Dell) A425 subwoofer disassembly
Mystery solved. Thanks for the vid but it didn't help.
I had to get medieval on its buttocks with a flat-head and a rubber mallet but I got it off. Plastic posts into particle-board baffle with silicone glue on the ends of a couple of them. The control pot wiring is also silicone glued thru a hole in the baffle. Gotta clear that and disconnect the speaker, which are what's keeping the rest of the guts from exiting thru the back panel. They used spade connectors on the speaker but soldered the negative spade on. Why use the spades if you're gonna solder the thing on anyway? Some people's children...

It was made in a capitalist version of a prison-like workplace in a communist country.
I was wrong about the glue though, it's hot glue, not silicone.Last edited by SteveNielsen; 08-06-2014, 04:22 PM.Comment
