- Avoiding cracked veneer on base of DSP-5500 MK-I's
Don't wiggle them on a rug without some sort of feet on them (e.g. Superspikes). MK-II's added a extra base to avoid this issue.
- Removing Grills on MK-I DSP-5500's
For the Vertical units you have to losen the sides. For Horizontal you can usually just work it out gradually around the edges.
- Removing Grills on DSP-6000 heads, DSP-5200, DSP-7000/8000 Midrange, DSP-7200
DSP-5200's remove by pinching them vertically.
