PREPARING TO PAINT:

1. Separate the parts of the speaker. Remove
the brackets and bracket knobs. Remove
the grille by carefully hooking it with a
bent paper clip and pulling it gently away
from the cabinet [figure 4].
2. Mask off the binding posts on the back
of the speaker [figure 5], the end panels
and bracket knobs, and carefully mask off
the front of the speakers to protect the dri-
vers and baffles while painting [figure 6].
The grille features an engraved logo pod.
You can mask this off or paint right over it.
