I wouldn't use duct tape at al. I'd recommend sealing it all up form the inside, with caulking. Take the driver out of the box, and seal all the edges with caulking,. make sure it leave it 24 hours before re installing the driver, as the vapors from the caulking will deteriorate the foam surround.

Why in the world would you use duct tape to seal your box?? Maybe use some wood glue between your joints and like he said, caulk the inside edges with silicone or something.

Radio Shack sells Stinger Wiring kits. I was happy to see that, but somehow I can't picture them being big in the car audio market.

I thought everyone knew that that's how we do our box building here in winnipeg.

Cardboard boxes and duct tape
