- Sorry for the quality of the audio and video. It was shot with a $10 camera.
I did not always have the camera rolling, and there were times that I wished that I had caught some of the progress on tape.
Much time was spent carefully removing the last remaining glue joint from the magnet / core. I used high bond Loctite 404 to glue thing back together when the parts were aligned.
The irony is, there's no way this item's nearly worth this skill and attention and the shop and all.
I enjoyed the process... have a similar item lined up to repair like this. Not gonna do it...thanx!
that pizza roller razer tool you've got would be perfect for what I need right now. I'm trying to cut out perfect pieces of some cheap vinyl wrap for my sx-650. Scissors suck. Well... I should say, I suck with scissors.
Depending on what surface you are refinishing, you can make the vinyl 1/2 inch bigger than you need, press it all down into place, and then trim the excess with a razor. Or google eBay for rotary cutter.
Who taught this guys anything about speaker repair? That poor voice coil is done. He may as well rip the softies out, replace magnet where it should be, and then shim the new voice coil over the bottom poll that he seems to think he needs to shave down! haha. OUCH!
Yea I have the same problem with a magnet from my Carsten subwoofer and this magnet is extremly strong
this happened to me today. it was an electrovoice 15" woofer and the magnet had fallen out of the woofer. wish I had watched this video BEFORE attempting to put that magnet back in :(
I wish you had showed how to get the speaker open. I can't figure it out.
If you notice in the opening shot of the video, with the speaker apart, two tall black cylinders (and four short ones) that protrude from the back of the speaker front. Each cylinder has a hole at the end. That is the very hole that the screw goes through that marries the front of the speaker cabinet to the back of the speaker cabinet. With the grill off of your speaker, you should see from the front of the unit there are six holes. Put a number 2 Philips screwdriver down each hole and undo the screw at the bottom of all six. You can see that the two middle cylinders are extra long; therefore the screwdriver has to be sufficiently long to get to the screw at the bottom of these two “wells”.
Just pop of the cover screen in the front then that whole plastic piece the screen was on also pops out just need a flat head
Well, what to say...except the song is way old and now it's called SAN MEXICO, i guess you know why.
A lot of effort for an average quality driver. I would've gone to either MCM Electronics (now Newark) or Parts Express and bought a replacement driver.
He was challenged by a buddy. Tell me you haven't taken more time than necessary to rise to a challenge like that?

Crap Polk Audio Speaker! or crap bose speakers all the f* same
Don't be so quick to blast Polk speakers. I have a set of Polk SDA CRS that I paid a thousand dollars for back in 1984. These speakers will handle 350 watts of amplifier power and will play as loud as you can stand. It's the best set of speakers I've ever owned. Yep, they still sound as good as the day I bought them home 33 years ago.
we not in 1984 !

If you'll look a little harder, I said mine were SDA CRS, not SRS. The CRS was a Compact Reference System. I may be wrong on the purchase date, it could have been 1985. If you'll look just a little harder you'll learn something. It doesn't matter what you think or what you say. I have the speakers and I've blown people away from 5 houses down my street. Here's a little more information. polksda.com/crs.shtml
