[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8792474, member: 634282"] Looks like it isnt sealed to me either. $0.99-$1.50 Tube of Caulk should do fine. I do not see a PORT on the Enclosure at all?? Looks SEALED to me and Not Burch Wood or MDF.. More like Pressed wood. May be ok for a sub under 600 rms @5/8" or thicker if you can not get a hold of Ply wood or MDF or Birch. And it is Painted on Outside should help. Itll work. We used Plywood back in the day 5/8 up to 1.50". That wood is not very Acoustics worthy to begin with. Im sure it leaks some where. Sub Rear PORT Rear in trunk space. Majority 10inch Kickers Ive installed and used myself like 1.4-1.6 sealed and 1.6-1.8 ported and around 35 htz. Id recommend sealing up/enclosing those Rear speakers, before they end up getting damaged by the subs pressure movement. Might even remove them all together to get some bass inside the cabin area may help [/QUOTE]
