Re: amp question

likely just a part of the speaker baffle, for rigidity, or maybe to protect the speaker cone and dustcap.

Re: amp question

might also block/disburse some of the high frequencies, can help with the beaminess of the highs

Re: amp question

I have the same amp I replaced my 1" strip of wood with mahogany. I am getting a much darker, richer tone. The downside is it added 10 lbs. to the weight of the amp.

More than likely it's there to prevent punctures of the grill cloth and speaker.

You could have drilled hundreds of small holes in it and weight relieved it.
