Does it breathe? I built a couple speaker enclosuers for my home stereo and the plans I used said the box has to breathe through a port in order for the speaker cone to move properly. Baffles were placed inside the enclosure to slow down the sound waves behind the speaker. The baffles prevent the sound waves behind the speaker from canceling out the sound waves comming from the front of the speaker. The port is a tube of a determined length to let air out but break up the sound waves. Of course this is probably a moot point since tiny speakers are generally sealed on the back side. However I think Antonio hit the spike on the head and you changing the CV's helped. Keep us posted!
