I would like to think plugging the top would be the best option since most subs that have just one reflex port have them positioned lower on the cabinet. Also about the plug being in a certain distance, I don't think it would make much difference so long as it is completely closed with no air leak. I used to have a Paradigm PS-1000 which was a bandpass enclosure with three large reflex ports on the rear. I used cloth to plug the ports and it sounded fine. Without at least one port plugged the subwoofer was a chud machine. It actually sounded nice after I plugged some ports.
