    I've the same concern as the comment above, can I buy the top ring separately?

    Yousef -

    Opening is not as simple as demonstrated in Step 6. I have followed everything through, am I missing something?

    • Remove the five 7mm screws on the inside of the JBL Pulse 3 with a Phillips #1 screwdriver.

    This phase could be difficult. Try to “twist” the speaker to have a little gap between both parts and insert gently a screwdriver or opening toile to spread the gap.

My speaker is making weird noises. It sounds like being crack. Do I need to replace the speaker or try to teardown to clean up the dust?
