its the pillow stuffing material you can pick up at wal mart and roughly 1lb of polyfil per 1cuft works nicely

Oh yeah I have seen that stuff in boxes but I never knew what it was for. So, exactly what does it do to help and how do you make it stick to the box without it being shot threw the ports? lol

small amounts of chicken wire can stop it from flying out the port, and it makes the woofer "think" its in a bigger box

That stuff was meant for sealed boxes, never heard of anyone using it in a ported box. Kinda defeats what ports are suppose to do.... move air freely.

yep, you can use it for ported boxes as well. It will give you a smoother response.

thats why kicker uses it it all their enclosures! i believe they use it for the flater responce like polecat said but it will also act like a larger enclosure.

Just going on a little bit of experience from my 15L7 I had and a few boxes I built for it, and on other peoples experiences... 6 cubic feet is not enough for two 15" L7s IMO... personally I consider that just a bit more than what is about right for just one... If at all possible, I would go with the 8 cubic feet Derrick824 suggested at a minimum.

Maybe try an isobaric config?

My brother used it in his box that was 2.93cuft after displacemtn tuned @ 40hz it does smoothed out the response also made it less "boomy" for lack of a better word.
