Are you talking about that fiberglass insulation? What, exactly, is the purpose of it?

When I was a teenager, a friend took the back of his Bandmaster speaker cab off, and we saw a solid sheet of fiberglass insulation - it was apparently attached to the sides or something,and not the back itself. Well, looking at that, I thought the entire cabinet was full of the stuff. When I built my first cabinet (something the size of a Dual Showman cab, but with only two 12s in it) I went to the hardware store and bought a bunch of fiberglass batting, like you'd put into walls or attic, and literally stuffed the cab full of it. I think it sounded ok, but kind of dead. I really didn't know what I was doing.
