So the first step is to remove the original speaker casing.
As you can see I used a flat head screw driver to open it up.

MAKE SURE ITS NOT TURNED ON!!

So... you took a couple speakers... and made... another couple speakers?  I understand that you started with a two-cabinet system, and ended with a single-unit system, but wouldn't it have been easier to, say, hot-glue the two original cabinets together and call it done?

But hey, I'm all for taking things apart and putting them back together in a different way, just for the joy of the experience, so if that's the point here, more power to ya!

Hmm.....why would someone do this? Maybe your speakers didn't have that vintage tin-can sound to them.

I did something similar.. using the same speakers as he used as an amp on a 12volt battery. I took a cheap $20 sub (2 speakers) and put them in a round coffee can both in the same can, with a hole in the side. I wired it up to the amp I hacked up with the computer speakers on my battery and I used it to play party boy in school :) LMAO.. I recently took the speaker apart and made them into two tube subs using 4 coffee cans.... two each.. The sweet smell of 400Watts in a can
