I've been reading around the nation for suggestions on subs and sub enclosures. A couple of times I read that people got more bass out of their aftermarket door speakers by simply sealing and deadening their doors making the door like a sub-enclosure. No one really went into detail on how to do it. Can anyone explain it, or point me to a thread where its explained?
Bass - Seal and Deaden doors?

I think that you are reffering to "Dyn-o-mat". And yes, alot of times if you dyn-o-mat the doors, you'll get a little deeper bass. Don't expect it to sound like 10" subs though!

It can never be perfectly sealed though because the drain holes in the bottom of the doors have to be left open. This mod also gets rid of any rattle your door panel will make against the metal which happen from bass.

Vibration is wasted energy. Anytime you can stop vibration you will improve the quality and volume of your speakers output.
Unless you build an enclosure behind the woofer you cannot totally seal the door, but sealing up big holes will help your bass a little. And also cut down road noise.
