Ugh... there's half the problem there as well... the tape will be
creating a gap between the speaker frame and the mounting points, which
only serves to exacerbate the "leakage" problem. If you have to use
something to physically isolate the speaker from the deck, use a "solid"
foam, and use it all the way around. I've used "RV foam" before, a
stick-on strip that seals up nicely (aka "weatherstripping tape"), when
such a tactic is required. See an example here: http://tinyurl.com/4mddxs
Building a solid wood deck and just attaching the speakers directly to
that will be more effective, though.

That's just to "aim" the mids and highs. Won't help this issue at all.
