This guide outlines how to replace the power supply from the Definitive Technology W7, with a model number of 093207098505. The motivation behind removing/replacing this part is that it provides power to all electrical components of the device. Symptoms of a defective power supply are the device not turning on, or the device turning off randomly. There are no potentially harmful things that can be encountered during this guide.

    • Wedge the spudger in any of the four corners of the panel and apply downward pressure on the spudgers handle to pry the panel away from the speaker housing.

    • Repeat this procedure around the perimeter until the panel releases, then lift the panel up by hand.

    • The gray mesh bag covering the speaker will now be exposed.

    • Flick the switch on the middle of the lock down to loosen the sack.

    • Pull upwards on the locking mechanism to loosen the drawstring. Stop pulling when the mesh bag is loose enough that it can be pulled downwards.

    • Unclip the two white connectors from the power supply. This is done by pressing the two white plastic strips on the clip together, then, pulling upwards.

    • If removing the clips from the power supply is difficult by hand, use pliers to press the two white plastic strips together, then pull upwards.

    @brendant (@magnusenl266) this guide is awesome. And, very accurate reflection of the steps required. In fact, I really wish I had found it before I started breaking down my W7. :)

    So, now that I have my power supply out, where can I buy a new assembly? Definitive Tech is no help on that front.

I was wondering if you have the part number or a source for the power supply board. I took it out hoping to find a part number but no luck. Thank you in advance for your help.
