Hello all,

I have a 1992 Fender Acoustics Junior and noticed when I was cleaning the speaker area and pressed slightly on the speaker the other one moves out.

Would it work better if a sound hole was added? (ie, has anyone tried this ?) I have other acoustic amps with pressure relief hole as part of the design.

I am sure the engineers are smarter than me so it may be designed to be air tight.

Thanks

The Acoustasonic uses a closed cabinet to extend the bass response to lower frequencies. Opening a port or sound hole would cause acoustic cancellation of low frequencies as the sound coming off the back of the speaker is 180 out of phase with the front of the speaker.
It reduces the overall volume of the amp but its a cleaner sound
