I took the 3 backs off and unscrewed the speaker but it would not fit thru the braces that cove the back. How do I get the speakers out? Do I have to unscrew the front baffel from inside?
 
You have to turn it 90 degrees and slide it out. It will fit through there.

+1. Took a little trial and error on my part but I eventually worked them out. And new ones back in!
 
I tried that and they didn't seem to come out that way, I try again.
 
Tried again as was able to turn them over and then squeeze them thru the bottom opening, a little tricky with that block of wood, you could damage the cones if you loose your grip.

One thing the screws holding the speakers to the baffle didn't have any washers on them, making the screw head a close fit to the speaker mounting holes could damage the holes, this is the only knock on this cab, it's design and build are top of the line, great cab.
 
Thanks for this thread. I recently replaced one of my Elite 80's and found things to be a bit tight. But yeah, Buckeye's advice worked well. :D
 
So what did you put in there?

I have a Tourmaster cab on consignment sale at a music store and is isnt moving even at 149$. I am thinking of just swapping speaks and keeping it.

I am curious to know how the swap went.
 
Softail,

I put a WGS HM75 in there and am quite pleased. It puts out a tad more bass than the stock speaker and has a bit more of a scoop, which works beautifully for clean stuff. I feel like I have even more use out of my volume control on my guitar now.

Bruce's Elite 80 speakers are great speakers, but I have always enjoyed mixing and matching in 2X12's so that I have two different flavors going on. Seems like the tones get a bit more texture, a bit more 3D if you will.

So far as selling your cab, unless you really need the money, please reconsider the selling your Tourmaster cab! I really love these cabs! If you can afford to, try a different speaker. :thumbsup:
