| Try to buy some drinking straws and cut them in the same length as the bass reflex port in your speakers and put them in the port. Make sure that they are tight (but of course not so tight that they close for the air). |

| |
| The straws eliminate the "organ pipe" resonance of the reflex port. This resonance is usually not good for the sound performance. |
| |
| Try it. It is (almost) free, you don't need to open your speakers, and it is easy to remove if you think the result is bad. |

Suggest
you read the Thiele & Small papers, to understand
what the port is and does, before doing this. |
