Stuffing a box always seemed counter productive to me.. we work so hard to get the internal volume correct (subtract port size, subtract speaker cone displacement, subtract bracing, etc...) - and then said volume gets reduced by some arbitrary amount of stuffing.

someone edumacate us please!

TMK moderate stuffing does not reduce, but virtually enlarges the box volume. Explanation about it can be found in the book by mr Dickason.

IMHO us diyers are abbrev-obsessed and AFAIK this doesn't occur as much on other types of forums, though OTOH IIRC maybe diff on PC forums, BTW YMMV but SWMBO will probably agree on this ...

Are we talking about stuffing or lining? It's not a bad idea to put in a small amount of lining (say open cell foam) on the walls and this won't have any noticeable change to volume. Light stuffing with something like dacron is another matter.
