Wadding inside cab

[Wild Steve]

Just picked up a used Aguilar cab and it sounds really distorted on the low notes.
One thing I noticed was that the material inside seems to be hanging down in front of the ports (see pics) - could this have something to do with it?

It probably has nothing to do with it, but in any event damping should be secured in the cab so that it doesn't hit either the drivers or the port.
