Hi all.

Have anyone in here disassembled a pair of JBL LSR705i?

I am using 8 of them in my theater (4 surrounds and 4 in the ceiling) but I am searching for a speaker with less physical depth for my next room. I love how the LSR's sound and they match perfectly for my LCRs.

Now that I have the LSR's and like how they sound, I was thinking that I could disassemble them and make them taller/wide but less deep. It looks like the front can be de-attached. Anyone tried this? I know it will change the crossover settings but this should primarily be in the bass and I have a BSS Soundweb connected which could fix this.

(I do not have the budget for JBL SCL-series which would be perfect).

Looks like your basic Open Baffle design ...
doesn't look difficult to try it for yourself.
