No, it's done purely for aesthetics. Some flush mount, others surface mount.

The woofer has a built-in gasket. The tweeter doesn't. If the wood is very flat and true, then no gasket is really needed but it never hurts to use one. You can make one from thin cardboard or PVC.

No, sorry. I think you said you mailed an order in, yes? It hasn't arrived yet. We'll email a confirmation once it comes.

Master

Wayne,

You had a link showing how to make gaskets from 40 mil thick plastic. Where do you buy plastic like that?

You can find it at most hardware stores as shower pan material.

They don't use lead anymore for shower pans, they use this stuff.
