Introduction
What you need
Step 1
Front Grate
- To remove the front grate of the speaker grab a metal spudger and go to the back corner of the device where the front panel curves around the device. Insert the spudger and ply apart the corner until clips release from panel. Repeat for the other side of the grate. When all clips are released pull grate off from the front of device
- When working with electronics, it’s important to choose a tool that’s ESD-safe to avoid accidental damage to the device. The metal spudger is great when you need serious prying power, but the regular black nylon spudger or a plastic opening tool should be used whenever possible.

Step 2
- Grab two metal spudgers and insert one into the slit underneath the silver plating on the top of the device. Pry upward with the spudger until you unhook the two locks on the top. Repeat same step for the bottom of the device. When all four tabs are released, slide device out of the casing
- Use caution when working with the metal spudger, as it can potentially damage your device.

I wanted to completely disassemble the speaker to see if I could modify its power source (from battery to USB). but found it glued shut. There are screws that would seem to open up the internals, but removing the screws did nothing. In the end I put it back together, and decided to not replace any of the screws. The glue and metal case are sufficient. No screws necessary.
I would prefer it to not power down while using USB power, but destroying the speaker to convert it to USB power is not the answer.
