It's semi closed. I don't have any particular plan to do anything, but there's a lot of room in there, so it's definitely a potential consideration if there were any particular benefit. Where it is only an 8" I thought there might be some bottom or mids I would gain.
I see the odd amp for sale where the owner has put in a larger speaker. Maybe that's why it's now for sale: they ruined the sound??
...so ever since then, I always hang on to the buckle.
