Ok, so I ordered a 10 inch Weber Sig 10 A-S speaker with a tweed cabinet from Marsh Amps about a month ago and I finally completed the amp building. The issue is that I cannot get it to fit properly with the back panel enclosed. So it looks like my cabinet is too small. Is this the case? If so, can I get this corrected some how?

I think the tweed cabinet that they sent to me was designed for an 8 inch speaker.

The chassis is unscrewed and upside down.

You've installed the amp too far forward. It needs to be flush with the inside lip of where the panel goes.

Remove the speaker's magnet cover.

+1. I have the same cabinet and same speaker. The dust cap has to be pried off the speaker magnet--a flat-bladed screwdriver will do the trick. This is the standard installation technique for this cab & speaker combo, per Marsh Amplification. Here's a photo of mine:

Great, thanx for the quick responses. I removed the cover and proceeded with the installation.
