The usual basic takes are: 1) Try to prevent resonance by using inert materials and/or construction. 2) Change the resonance frequency. 3) Spread it around. Basically, you won't know how something will affect your sound until you play with it, to get a better sense of how various treatments actually affect the sound from your driver in the situation it's in. You might try a heavier and/or more rigid back chamber, larger or smaller, and you might try lining and/or stuffing it with different materials, and tighteing and loosening connections, with softer or harder gaskets... the list goes on and on. At some point you will find the best compromise version of what you want to hear from the driver. On the other hand, can you actually hear a "bad influence" from the resonance that you mention here? Anyway, if you doggedly target precisely the part that bothers you most now you will at least find out sooner the price you will pay to address that problem in that way, and you can go from there, trial and error. Yippee.
