You could try heating and cooling cycles, to gently break up the glue by expanding and shrinking metal (ice cubes in a waterproof bag), but with cooling you risk condensation buildup inside the unit, on the other side of the metal fascia...
That laminated chipboard is easy to chip.

ill just have to wait for a really hot day and try it again there not that bad that they need doing asap but thought remove the bolts tip it down and take a look, but not going to happen.
could be just a gasket that has turned to glue they are 20 years old but there is something in there holding it in

Can you work some dental floss under a corner and gradually use it to saw through the glue, going under the fascia? That works to remove 3M sticky pads sticking things onto windscreens. Again, first protect the edges of that delicate chipboard laminate with masking tape layers or something - gaffa tape could rip that laminate off.

Best leave it unless absolutely necessary - you may be able to soften the glue using heat, or break it up a bit using heat and cooling cycles... but you risk bending that fascia using force and that would be a total disaster. Sell em while you can? And don't buy another pair of Genelecs...
I'll give you a tenner for the pair

Have you got a thin bradawl? If so, you could insert it into a hole and push the shaft against the metal fascia, side to side, up and down? The bradawl shaft must be thinner than the hole. If you do this with each hole several times, you might eventually get enough lateral movement to loosen the glue? Go easy though, as it would be easy to damage holes in the metal fascia. Just a thought to ponder... (doing what I've suggested will of course foul the internal threads a bit, but at least that's invisible damage, which can be fixed by retapping the holes)

Did you cause that chip in the bottom left hand corner? If not, seems likely someone has tried (at the very least) to get that fascia off using a screwdriver before.View attachment 53399
ifix it kit wont cut it that fkn thing must be 20kg and held in buy suction cos i cant move it fkn 1mm
the top part is a sealed box so no way to get at it from behind ill just have to get some help and take them off the stands pita. and tip them forward and it might fall out on its own.
i never done that damage but looks like they used big screwdrivers last time they was moved as one part has broken away, if i can get the fkn thing out i can glue it back down and get the shoe polish out for the corners.
if you have deep scratches use candle wax to fill the scratch the over it with floor polish then buff it

well i phoned source distribution to speak to a tech guy as the service centre for genelec and said that wave guide is part fkn metal a weighs a fkn ton so best off tipping them on the front and if it still wont move use like that thing above in the bolt holes to pull it away said its a right pita and said no glue or gasket.
