If I remember correctly, the speaker is also very sensitive to distortion
of its metal frame (and therefore cone) if you tighten down the nuts too
much. You may have already tried this but try backing them off and
readjusting them so they're finger tight and no more. If things rattle,

That is true for the standard speaker, but with the KBT1, the speaker is
changed to a smaller one that has no mounting screws, it just sits with
its magnet settled into the hole in the battery bracket - it needs to
have a foam washer around its magnet to kee3p it from creating rattlie

battery option is a bit on the tinny side.
Refer to the KBT1 instruction manual and check to be sure the speaker
has the little foam ring and that it is inserted properly.
Another point with that internal battery option - I have
Thanks. Glad its not me!
