Using the standard metal spudger, begin by prying at the bottom of the plain rubber end cap (the end without the USB or auxiliary input).

I was able to remove the cover without cosmetic damage. I used a 6” sharp knife blade, slid it into the crack and twisted. As Kevin states in Step 2, you are trying to lift up the center of the long edge. The top short end has two tabs and the bottom end has one big tab in the center.

Yes I agree with Student4Life. Just insert the spudger into the top short edge (the edge without rubber foot) and you can remove the cover without noteble damage.

Continue prying around the end panel, prying at different points until the entire panel is out of its seating.
Carefully remove the end panel.
The tabs which connect the panel are on the short sides.
WARNING: you will likely cause cosmetic damage to the end cap.

Using a T6 bit, remove the flat topped 5mm screw located on the bottom of the casing, underneath the rubber foot.
This is the only flat topped screw in the speaker, so keep track of which one it is.

I didn’t have a T6 bit. My set only went down to T7. I was able to seat a jeweler’s flat-blade screwdriver into the head, press down firmly, and turn the screw head. Even after breaking the screw loose, there was significant drag to turn it, so be careful of the tool slipping out of the screw head.

Push against the side without end cap to slide the internal components out of the case.
While holding the metal outset casing with one hand, press on the black inner plastic casing with your thumb.
It will be very difficult the first time. There is a rubber seal on the outside of the plastic inner case that creates a lot of friction with the metal outer case.
