I've just recently built a fiberglass/mdf enclosed sub box. Ive never built a box before, and i was wondering, when i drill a hole in the box for the sub wires it isnt goin to be perfectly air tight. The instructions i got on building the box were very specific about the box being air tight. I was wondering what should i use to fill the extra space around the wires so it holds pressure? thanks

Silicone rubber cement. Also known as RTV.

I second that. One tip: Let the solicone cure before remounting your driver; the fumes while curing can be bad for your surround.
