OK, in typically James fashion I slapped together a cheapo Cab earlier this year. It has 2by10" speakers with a range of 60 to about 4000hz. As it cost me about £40/$65 to make i can currently put up with it's frequency range.

Any general suggestions for boosting the high mids somewhat?

- bearing in mind that i usually experience 2by4s as disabled SUV/landrovers. ;)

The question is a bit academic at the moment as i'm waiting for someone to send me high wattage resitors so i can rewire it to a nominal 8 ohms and run the Vox through it.

I hear stuffing it with glass wool ??(trial and error) can be one way to go, or is it better to try and calculate a "Maze" type affair of baffle boards,ports etc ?.

I realise that this can be a very scientific and precise topic,but i'd like to keep it simple if possible.
Accuracy,you say? hmm interesting concept..
