i've seen this written in me maxpower/haynes manual. they say you buy it from toy shops,


what's the idea behind it? does it effect the size of the enclosure?

it makes the sub act as if it were in a larger enclosure. i.e. turn a 1 cubic foot box into a 1.2 cubic foot box.

yup, as above. When the wadding fibres vibrate in the box they generate heat and increase the air pressure in a sealed box (like the air pressure in a tyre) making the sub work like it was in a bigger box. It also dampens the airwaves bouncing around in the box which may otherwise work against the cone.
