Replaceable Voice Coil

Just saw this in May's issue of popular science, thought it was pretty cool. You can simply replace the voice coil by removing 6 screws that are around the coil's cap. http://www.bostonacoustics.com/car/car_product.aspx?category_id=17&family_id=130&product_id=373

If you are blowing the VC often enough that it needs to be easily accessible, then you are doing something completely wrong to begin with.

Nice concept. Not a lot of practical value for the consumer on that subwoofer...but that it'll likely decrease BA's expenses for warranty work, giving them more income.
