Yes, I did play deep bass music with the narrow cover panel removed...Bass seemed to have a somewhat deeper response with far less low freq vibration...Did you play any music with the back cover off? How did it affect the sound quality? That cover has insulation padding right over those ports so I wondered what type of difference it made with it on vs off? I doubt the holes are used to tune the subs frequencies, that's more of the port design for that (width and length). I would imagine that they put the cutouts to decrease the bass resonating off the metal. If the air was completely released it would definitely cut down on the rattle and muddy muffle sound.
That insulation you see on the narrow cover plate isn't thick enough to cover over the 3 elongated openings...The insulations is apparently used to reduce that panel from rattling...
Also, with the narrow cover removed I did actually cover those 3 elongated openings while playing deep bass and the vibration was absolutely horrible with bass response noticeably lessened...
I'm wondering if a 2" hole punched into that narrow cover plate in front of those 3 elongated exhaust holes might help with both vibrations and improve low freq response?
Side note: there are quite a number areas that need to have vibrations eliminated within the rear cargo area...I've identified a number of areas but it';s like a game of wack-a-mole where you eliminate a few key areas and then start to notice other spots you missed!
