Is there any chance of evaluating x/o parts for value ( uF, ohms, mH)?
To me it does not seem like a keeper, although I could be wrong.
The mess is telling us nothing about schematic.
The thicker wires used as a measure of design improvement are nonsense.
They produce issues, solving nothing, other than appearances.
The damping wool quality is good, placed wrongly for a vented application.
I would take everything apart, clean the mess on x/o, measure parts values,
make a new board, modify schematic for better sound, make room for new port.

The shape is very cool, I find this cabinet very well built, I wisch I was able to make the same... but the surface finish is ugly as the stands color in that mix. Paint the cabinet in white or black with a front plate in black fabric with the stands in blacks and it should pass the WAF. All black also is less obstructive in a room.

It certainly a good idea to construct the bass cabinet though if not huge (WAF contect), i.e. not tooo much deep.

or sell the unwanted parts and start fresh.

I suspect the maker feared of the vibrations, and that should be the cure for stopping It. Sort of a condom...I’m starting to wonder if these were some elaborate plan to deceive potential buyers
Not sure why they felt the need to cover the components in chemical metal ( bondo )

To fulfill his/her program, he/She should Just have used the binding posts as prolongation of driver 's terminals and put the crossover external.
Mid way should be the best, keeping the bi(tri-) wiring till the amplifier.
Many brand put the crossover in a pot and cover with resin
Why not fill the entire speaker with resin? 😎
Seriously - the original Watt with the Puppy woofers was a quite good speaker, but this replica looks more like .. well .. it's a really bad job when you look inside it.
