Ah, no problem, thought it was worth a mention :)

That big round magnet on the back of the speaker? It pushes and pulls the paper cone in and out thousands of times per second with the AC audio signal.
2 screws might be enough, but the point is that the more secure you can make the bracket, the better the speaker will perform. It probably won't matter with drivers of this size, but if it's no big deal -- why not sink a few more screws?

So is it the frame is more likely to vibrate with 2 instead of 4? Or is there danger of just the two working loose?

Im still curious what software and hardware is going to run inside this.Looks a really nice build,but i wonder how you could possibly have anything running rocketlauncher squashed inside.I honestly think before planning out button placement,you should look into software youll be using,and how it could impact your button choice.

I'm most likely going to be using a Raspberry Pi 3B+ inside running RetroPie. The plan is to customize the layout to only run arcade games. I want to be able to play some fighting games (SF, MK, etc.) so that is what is guiding the button layout. I have never even heard of RocketLauncher but I'm not 100% sold yet on any set up and I'm willing to learn. I would like to use a computer and Windows XP running MAME and MaLa because that is what I'm most familiar with but there isn't enough room.
