I'm new to the forum, and not exactly sure where to post this, but I need to get the front panel off of a Bose Acousstic Wave 3000 radio (the taller one) to fix a hole in the acoustic tube that carries the bass. It's a long story, but I can tell you the hole is approximately 9mm in diameter!
I have all the electronics removed, but can't seem to be able to separate the front panel from the rear section (where the long plastic tube is located). It seems as though the front panel must lift up. Any ideas? The electronics are fine...I just need to repair the holes. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
If you want to see pics, replace the DOT with an actual "."
So you missed the electronics? Can't help, sorry, not sure you'll find any people here who'll know how to take one of those apart, Bose isn't too popular here. Why not call Bose?
Hey, nice shot...I'd have hit the electronics.
ps You have to have 5 posts before you can post pics or links....as you've noticed. In the rules somewhere
Yeah...I was thinking this was more of a technical site than a repair...I just used the Bose for my computer speaker. I have a Yahama RXV3900 hooked up to a nice pair of old Swans, though.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a site I might be able to get help from? I'm NOT sending this into Bose...I just need to get the front panel off, and repair a couple of holes in the plastic tube. It seems the Acoustic Wave, much like an atom, is mostly empty space.
Bullet went in and out, straight through only one of the tubes used to amplify bass. The front grill doesn't come off, so I used some JB Weld for plastic in front and out the exit wound as well. I slapped it back together, and back to 100 percent.
Thanks guys, have a laugh, but remember...do not trust even a weapons expert if they tell you a weapon they hand you is clear...this one surely wasn't. I got lucky nobody was hurt, and all I lost was a 27 inch monitor...the $1100 Bose was saved. It does make for a pretty nice computer speaker setup.
Thanks again for those who tried to help, or at least the one guy who responded. Have a good weekend, dude!
If it were me, I'd grab a hammer and finish the job...put it out of it's misery. Not worth another bullet.
