rear shelf speakers- should they be enclosed?

Hi All-

When installing new speakers in the rear parcel shelf, is it better to leave the bottoms of the speakers fully exposed to the inside of the trunk (as in my 108) for air supply (not the 80's band...) or to enclose them with some kind of bass box or similar to minimize the amount of sound lost into the depths of the trunk?

Just read a thread about the 123 chassis, and rear shelf- it has a full metal bulkhead beneath the shelf that essentially closes off the speaker apertures from the trunk- read that this reduces the amount of bass the speaker can produce-

I am confused- do I want to enclose my 108 rear speakers or let them remain exposed to the trunk interior?

If they should be enclosed, any recommended methods? The parcel shelf itself appears to be some kind of plastic.

Thanks,

JAS
