my cut for my sub was supposed to be 11 1/8 in. when i cut the circle i had no pattern and didn't exactly cut to 11 1/8 in. about a 1/4 inch off at it's greatest differrence, will htis affect the quality of the sound or my box.

As long as your screws have enough wood to bite into and the seal is air-tight, you should be fine.

the sub i an installing an ed a 12, has a rubberring oround it, does this act as a seal once screwed in, and do i need to buy weatherstripping. finally, is liquid nails sufficent for making a speaker terminal air tight.
NOTE: when building boxes, go thee extra mile and use fiber glass, carpeting has to be the biggest pain in the bass. in fact i'm considering opening a sweatshop in veitnam and having six year olds carpet boxes. lololololol

yes this rubber does act like a seal. But if it isnt tight in the first place it might not work. Its kindof like a last thing just to make sure.
You dont need weather stripping i just put my 15s in
liquid nails works very well for air tightness
