Is it possible to buy a replacement subwoofer? Mine has been dropped and it's only the bass elements that sound distorted, thank you

I also cannot find a subwoofer replacement on the web. Do you know where I can buy one?

BOSE has a $75 option to refurbish the speaker, they do not sell the parts…..

Where's the best place to hide an airtag in this Bose speaker? In your opinion that is. (Airtag is modified to not have a working beeper)?

I am working in repair cafés and had one yesterday. I was disappointed about these screws, which I could not open with my iFixit screw set (Pro Tech). It was not Torx. Maybe Bose changed it for some models. I am missing a pentalobe screwdriver with a hole in the middle. The P6 (should be named PL6 by the way) from the Pro Tech Toolkit is too small and has no hole.

Since the battery started charging with another power supply, we did at least not have to open it.
I am very interested in a tool opening those screws and how they are named. Maybe I could abuse a kind of spanner driver or create one myself.

I did some research and these screws are called Torx star 5 point (translated from German), which is in my opinion not an official designation. According to Wiki, these should be Torx Plus Security. Torx Plus was patented by the company Acument.
Just funny, that I already HAD these in my car for coffee machine repairs... But I didn't know, that 'Torx' could have been 6 and 5 star. Since the designation seems not to make a clear diefference.
