Leak 2020 Speakers

Hi,

I've just purchased a pair of Leak 202o Speakers to go with my Leak 2000 Turner/Amp

This may seem a stupid question, but how do I remove the front grille? I've tried using plastic pry tools normally used on mobile phones, but I don't want to use too much force and damage the metal surrounds or grille clothe

I've searched the forums, but all I can find is threads dealing with the drivers, almost as if the grille removal is so simple it doesn't need a comment

Thanks in advance

Andrew
 
Sorry, didn't think to add a pic

Looks similar to these, so maybe the same mounting method?

"They are incredibly tight fitting. My fingernails won't do it. I needed a sharp pry tool and still managed to leave slight marks on the metal trim. I've seen lots of questions on how to remove the grilles. My advice is use a stiff pick and start at the bottom to minimise visibility of marks (inevitable)."

"The metal frames are screwed to the cabinet. It is a simple thing to gently pry the grill cloth (which is wrapped around some greenboard) out of the frame. All is revealed after that."

You were correct, and I only left a very small nick on the bottom metalwork, thanks a lot
