Good evening / Im thinking of shortning my alons to fit a cabinet set up in my liv room.Does anyone know if the speaker post are glued and can they be heated up so i can remove the 4 corners so i can shorten the speaker and do you think it will change the sound that much of the speaker

Just finished reworking a set of Alon model II mark IIs. I assume that you are talking about the four large wood dowels used as corner post in the top section. The top section can be removed by by first removing the midrange and tweeter sections. Wire will need to be disconnected from the crossover networks ( located in the bass enclosure). Be sure to mark their location so that they can be properly reconnected. There is a bit of caulk on the inside where the wires go through the top of the bass section. Remove so the wires pull out easily.save it for re-installation. Set the mid-tweeter section aside and try not to disturb any more than you have to. Now you will see 4 screws that holds the top section to the bass section. Take them out and The top section can be removed. While at it check the glue on all of the crossovers. It has a tendency to release but is easily repaired with glue gun and one of the new hot glues I use Arrow Slow Dry Sticks. Contact me if I can be of further assistance.
