edit: why the need for stuffing?

Stuffing an enclosure (we recommend lining the walls with fiberglass insulation over using polyfill) reduces internal resonances which smooths out the overall response. It also fools your subwoofer into thinking it's in a larger enclosure. For instance, if you had an enclosure that was 1 ft^3 and you stuffed it with a pound of polyfill the subwoofer would think it's in 1.25 ft^3. I.e. it will play lower.
