Eto mas-simple:

Carefully swipe old credit card at L.I.S. to acquire new LS50. Check the aesthetic cover plate edges to see if properly placed. Take it home & enjoy!!! Hehe!

Move the cone and see if the spider follows.

Good Choice! Let the experts do it, sayang the Driver alone looks very Good & Sturdy built. maybe its a lemon during the production line. Atty try nalang sa Warranty service here sa KEF distro, maybe they'll honor it

Also check if the tweeter assembly moves. Remove the plate behind the magnet, AFAIK doon accessible ang tweeter mounting.

There's a lock at the spade connector. In this pic the tab is near or at dead center, triangular part:

Disconnect by pulling the wire WHILE pressing the tab.

The faint yet devilish "hehe" is a sign na gusto ituloy ni atty ang DIY adventure nya. Go atty go! ;D

Let's do this. For science. But I cant get this guy out. Where is the lock? By the way, spider moves when cone is moved.

Spider moves when cone is moved. Faint grating sound can be heard. No visible lumps or damage on voice coil. Tama ba? The voice is coil is the one na parang karton na cylindrical sa gitna ng toilet paper?

the tweeter assembly should be fastened at the middle of the main woofer magnet assembly by way of a screw or adhesive.  Can you take a good picture of that hole in the middle of the magnet assembly?

In hindsight that woofer magnet looks like its as big as the main driver itself. No wonder that thing can play real big without losing coherence in spite of its diminutive size.

Ok bro. Will take closer photo tonight. That black cap thing on the right covers the hole which I removed by turning. I did not see a screw in the hole but will check again later.

I think courage got it right. That black thing that you unscrewed is the one that fastens the tweeter assembly in place.

As per specs, its a Uni Q driver array. I saw some videos of Kef Uni-Q array just being pushed para humiwalay sa main woofer. Wala bang movement kapag nag push yung loob kung saan naka screw yung takip?

Atty di kaya instead of removing it you should push it back in so that the wave guide is flush and it doesn't hit the cone? Baka dun sa screw lumuwag.

+1.. base dun sa video, pinigilan nung guy by holding dun sa edges nang tweeter para sumikip and hindi sumama yung tweeter sa ikot nung takip sa ilalim while making it tighter
