Is it ok to plug the port on my woofers?

Asked by pikipupiba (1629points) February 10th, 2010

I have two fifteen inch woofers in my sound system.

They sound pretty good, but when I plug the bass reflex port (by covering it with my hand) the bass hits harder, sounds clearer, and the cone throws farther (do you know why these things happen???)

Is permanently plugging the port ok? What about only occasionally? Or is it NEVER a good idea?
