How to get into the box? the bigger ones are easy in comparison.
Such a litle thing putting up such a fight. I've removed the speaker to have
a look inside and all I can assume is that it is just very strong metal/wood
glue locking the top panel part into the woodwork. The rear section is loose
of this L section panel but locked in place by the top section.

Where and how to break this bond ? or something I've missed altogether ?

Its that double sided glued foam stuff, large areas of it around the 3 sides
of the top section..
Eventually gained enough confidence to push a blade into the 3 to prize
apart.

What kind of glue will you use to push/put it back together? Some of
the glues dissolve the foam stuff.

Probably nothing, the panel is held to the wood carcase by about 8 large
bolts and the foam must just be there for hermeticness , if thats a word and
anti-rattle.
Speaker is just 4 inches diameter , about 6W powered by a tiny surface mount
IC with no added heatsinking so hardly acoustically significant front/back
leakage I'd have thought.
This is a tiny thing , only 9x8 x 6.5 inches overall.

Sorry, if I misled anyone, 9x8 x 6.5 inches excludes the handle

I've seen women carying bigger handbags than this

post mortem on the Jalco socket

No obvious problem but for minimal metal and plastic content and makes a
nasty scratchy/clicky noise on turning a jack plug in there, probably
because the tip contact is along the axis of the plug rather than across.

I suspect it was failure to positively disengage the grounding contact as
only something like paper thickness separation with the plug in place. I
could not induce the problem as found and had to take word of owner that he
had to bend the plug one way to make a contact.
