How to take apart a home tower speaker?

[JH74]

I removed the 4 screws from the board,but it was still firmly attached,so i didnt want to pull too hard.The white resisitor is still on there really good,it doesnt wiggle at all,and does not appear to have any loose connections.I might get a multimeter too check the wires going to the tweeter.Also the back speakers appear to be separate from the front,there is a board that runs all the way up the speaker,in the middle of the cabinet.

there is a board that runs all the way up the speaker,in the middle of the cabinet.

Please explain ?

Pics are worth a thousand words.

Do you mean a circuit board ?

No,i removed the back tweeter,when i reached my hand in the hole,behind the foam is a wooden board.It runs vertical in the speaker.I'm not sure why its there but it separates the front and back speakers,literally.

Ahh ok, internal baffle/bracing/seperator.

If you don't have a soldering iron then I'd say it would be best to stop and find a freind that has one, and a multi meter.

Will make life so much easier for you.
