You don't have to remove the woofer to get at the adjustable
crossovers- and the backs are countersunk on the edges, for a really
tight fit. Also to get at the speaker wire connections to each driver,
a removeable back makes it much easier, than pulling each driver out.

Well, OK. But why would you need adjustable crossovers or access to
the wiring unless you were changing drivers?


You need adjustable crossovers while changing drivers ?? What you said
is a red herring argument.

Changing drivers- if you never had to change out at least a tweeter,
you haven't been listening to music very much, or very long. I've
changed tweeters in many speakers, and mids- and my main speakers just
had the woofers changed out for bad surrounds, under the lifetime
warranty. Those lasted 20 years, I bought them in 1986.

I had to cut open a speaker that was sealed and glued together once, to
change the crossover cap- because I was changing out a bad tweeter and
could not get to it from the front.

see ??
