Question Sealing A Ported Enclosure.

Has anyone attempted this? Is it as simple as pluggin the hole? or would the dimensions not work for the same box

Dimensions could be an issue. They would most likely not be ideal but may still work fine. Also may depend on the driver.

I would build a new box.

But yes plugging the hole it is as simple as that. Take care to seal it also [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

This soudns gheeto but it works, and I do it.

If it's a PVC type port, just fill it with a sock or a shirt or something.

I used to use my coat to fill my ports on my SPL box for daily driving. LOL
