Metric 4x10 bassguitar cabinet

[LFlab]

I had some pretty nice planed pieces of wood which I had laying around for a while already, can't remember what I bought it for (there's a great place to buy all sorts of wood, and they have a "hobby attic" with smaller planed pieces for builders of small boxes, and I usually cannot contain myself when looking around there  ). And I recently got one of the small Hotone bass "amps" (they are like 3W or so), so I figured I'd make a small bass cabinet for it. Already made a ton of bass cabinets with serious bigger speakers, I wanted something very compact, so I chose 4 10cm drivers (Dayton Audio TCP115-4), pretty inexpensive (17 euros each) and Fs seems low enough. They probably are underdampened for a bassguitar application, so I'll stay well away from using them at their rated power level.

Enclosure volume is about 13 liters, tuning frequency will be 55Hz or so. I've tried them now with a closed back panel, because I was keen to hear them. Seems the little Hotone amp is not up to the task though, so I'll need to find a different amp to drive this cab.

Wood is cherry for the sides, beech for the top, and basswood for the bottom panel, the baffle is 9mm ply, with a large brace at the back.

Dovetailed carcass, the cherry sides are almost quartersawn (which is why I bought them, because thin panels in cherry have a tendency to warp a bit otherwise).
