    I will add this technique to my woofer removal attempt this evening. Wouldn't have thought of the blow dryer. Hopefully successful and not in the market for new woofers tomorrow. Ready for "Altec Surgery". Thank you.

    I just yanked mine off and amazingly, the gasket stayed with the speaker along with pieces of plywood.

    I clean dusty cones with a very slightly damp cloth.

    Or if you can get your hands on one of those miniature vacuums for keyboards.

    I'm getting worried, we haven't heard the outcome of the removal attempt. : /
