I just use a piece of 3 mil plastic sheet draped over the top half of the speaker if I am worried about water.

It's always good to go back and check on old posts.
Might I assume, this is why my stereo has almost no bass? I Don't have a sub, but my stereo is seriously lacking in bass and mid range. Old country sounds okay, Rock and metal is marginal, Hip-Hop is a No-Go.
I might have to modify my baffles.
Update:
I cut my Boom Matts out just like this pic. WOW what a difference.
Originally, I was seriously disappointed in my new speakers. After this mod to the foam baffles, there is a significant improvement.
Before, as the volume increased, the bass dropped off significantly. So, at half volume or above it sounded crappy and tinny.
Now, it sounds full and proper.
Thanks for the great tip.
