Hey, think on the bright side, at least you didn't have an alternator-sized mouse pop out of it!

Some threads around here boggle my mind.

It could be like the z-640 subwoofer. The screws for that are behind the speaker grille, which not only snaps in place, but is also glued down for good measure. It needs to be pried away (which will very likely cause damage) to reveal the screws.

lol. I could but my entire hand and some of forearm in the side port and still have more to go. Just open it up; you voided the warranty already anyways;).

I went in a hole, right?

Why not try and turn the sub over, so the ball can roll back out of the port, or is the port baffled, and not straight thru?

it curves.

thanks for the suggestions guys, i'm gonna try some stuff and see whats up. most likely i'll end up making another thread about whatever stupid thing i do trying to get the ball out.
