Anyone on here had the misfortune to have work on one of these POS ? If
so, how do you get into it ? It's got me beat. Front grille comes off,
and a number of obvious screws then exposed. On the bottom, below the CD
drive, is a plastic 'plate screwed between the front and rear case
halves. Remove that, and the CD drive comes with it. That can all be
unplugged and removed. That then exposes a PCB, again screwed between
the front and rear halves. Four screws out of that, and the board is
then adrift, but not going anywhere, as it is still apparently fixed to
the case rear half by a screw into the phono connector block, that's
behind a thick plastic stuck-in trim panel. With all that lot out, the
front case-half appears to be largely adrift from the rear, except right
around the middle, where it 'feels' as though there's another screw
lurking, but nothing visible from any angle, front or rear.

I've even taken the speakers out to make sure that there are no other
screws behind them.

So I'm stuck now. Anyone know the secret ... ? d:-\

Have you tried low temp hot air over the stuck on trim, to soften glue
