I think we both are big fans of the recessed look Do you have to double it? Nope. But there's no reason to not do it. It won't hurt anything and it can only help.

Thats the easy part. When Im trying to put it back and line it up with the screw holes it is a pain. When Im trying to line it back up thats when it'll catch my fingers lol. Ive probably had to start 2 or 3 different holes just cuz I couldnt get it lined back up the right way. Plus my sub weighs roughly 40-45lbs. But its not like Im removing my sub from the enclosure everyday or anything,Im jus sayin.
