I took some thick rubber tape and wedged some into the problem areas to silence most of it. That area looks like quite a pain to disassemble to fix properly.

The very beginning song "The Wanted - Chasing the Sun" plays a noise out the rear speakers that seems to hit the resonant frequency perfectly. It's not a bass note, it's a decidedly midrange "noise" that buzzes back there like crazy in mine.
A few pictures will be nice
