I got everything back together and gave the neigherhood a audio test.

Everything sounds great. The high end and mids didn't really seemed that changed but everything did seem more clear and seperated somehow.

As for the bass, I noticed a bigger difference. All bass freqs were more detailed, crisper, and punchy. I played with different EQ settings and found the cab reponded very clearly to individual bass freq adjustments better then before, plus I could also boost them higher then before without the tone becoming muddy.

I'm not sure if it was the better wire, the foam, or sealing everything air tight ( likely a combination of all ) but the cab has been modified for the better, even if the change is small. I can at least sleep better now knowing my cab is as good as it can get.
