The simplest way to control panel damping is constrained layer damping which is 2 layers for each panel glued together with a glue that never totally hardens. The panels can be the same material or different ones. A simple one going back over 50 years to the old IMF Monitor speakers is to finish a wood(MDF today) panel with Formica(or similar material) with the non setting glue.
Rigidity in this case would usually be bracing perpendicular to the walls, preferably close together, say 4 to 6 inches.
