Sony SRS-X3 Speakers Replacement

Remove rubber feet on the bottom of the device

Remove 6 silver philips head screws with PH1 bit

Remove bottom plastic cover of speaker

Remove 2 phillips head screws holding battery pack with PH1 bit

Remove battery back with spudger

Unscrew 3 phillips head screws using PH1 bit

Remove green board. Battery pack and green circuit board should still be connected to the speaker by a ribbon wire. This is normal.

Pop off front speaker face (dark grey with little holes) by pushing out 3 tabs where screws were previously located and sticking spudger in crack where grey speaker face meets the outer shell

You may really have to pry on this part, it is not easy to remove and will pop out when released

Remove 8 black phillips head screws shown with PH1 bit

Remove front face by prying 2 black tabs shown using spudger

This face is glued in and may need some elbow grease to remove. Don't worry about breaking anything, as it is all connected

Remove speaker wires from each speaker (2 wires per speaker) and take speakers out of device

Speaker wire connectors are made to connect very snug, so they should be hard to remove. Give it a good tug and they should pop off the male end

You can now replace your speakers and reassemble this unit. If replacing the mother board continue with steps 10-14 in the mother board repair guide.
