[QUOTE="dopey, post: 914994, member: 545708"] I wouldn't use silicon caulk inside your enclosure. The fumes from the caulking will attack the surround of your speakers. All you need is wood glue and you're enclosure will fine. As for strength that is, the wood will break before the bond of the wood glue. If you're using silicone to "seal" your enclosure.. don't waste you're time. MDF (medium density fiberboard) is very porous. What that means for us in car audio is that we cannot have a truely sealed enclosure using mdf, without laying fiberglass resin to the interior of the enclosure. [/QUOTE]
