I got a brand new bass then my speakers went boom

So I started playing my bass again last year after not playing it forever.  I finally got better than I was when I was in a shitty band my senior year.  Lately I've been going to music stores looking for deals on a second 4x10 speaker cabinet.

A few weeks ago something that wasn't planned happened though.  I fell in love with a used bass.  It was a 5 string and I loved it.  I played it on a few amps in the store and it sounded and felt amazing.  So I bought it even though I didn't plan on buying anything.

I bring the bass home and hook it up to my setup and it sounds like shit.  I play with the settings on my amp and I get it to sound ok, but not good.  I figure fine and start playing it. 

Not even 5 minutes into playing disaster strikes.  Two of the speakers in my cabinet stop working.  Fuck I tear apart my cabinet I found out some solder gave way on a speaker.  I think I can fix it, but I need a second set of hands to do it.  So now here I am two weeks later haven't touched either of my basses angry cuz I don't have anything to play them on.

I guess that's what I get owning equipment as old as I am.  Damn it I want to play right now!
