Diamond Audio Loudmouse Repair?

[Tim Baldwin]

Has anyone had any expirience repairing a Diamond Audio "Loudmouse"
sub-woofer system? Mine cuts out occasionally but can usually be made to
work again by some wiggling of the knobs on the front - so I suspect a
trivial loose connection or dry joint inside it. But I can't figure out how
to get inside ... I don't see any screws holding the case together and a
gentle prising at the seams with a screwdriver doesn't seem to show any
movement. It looks like the whole casing has been glued together - any
suggestions of how to get inside?

Don't know about a Loudmouse, but I had a Labtec that was hot glued
together way down inside. When I asked the vendor how to get it apart,
the answer
was, "you don't."
I pried on the plastic lid until something broke and it came apart.
Then I had to patch it back together. Do a good job with the glue.
A tiny air leak can make it sound horrible.
