Hey Guys,
In answer to the last couple of posts, I mounted the speaker to one side of the cabinet as I wanted a hinged top for a small storage compartment. In one of my pics you can see the multicolored laminated bottom of that compartment. Since I was giving this to my son, I knew he had to have a place for an ipod. To allow charging, I have a surge protector inside the cabinet and that also has 2 USB jacks on it to charge an ipod and whatnot. Back to the speaker, I wanted the new grill cloth to mount flush with the outside so I cut a 1" wide ring from a large diameter pvc pipe and placed a piece of double stick tape around the outside diameter of that. Next, I took my new grill cloth and stretched it over the ring and then put that into the large circle hole that I made in the side of the cabinet. It was a snug fit held in place with some screws on the inside of the ring.
About that resistor, it was a little out of spec but I had to replace it because one of the leads broke off when I moved it out of the way to replace a cap. I soldered a new piece of wire to it but it will not hold. Funny thing, I dont see the value of this resistor listed on the Rider Schematic but I'm still new at this. I will keep trying.
