[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8840471, member: 614752"] A fair bit less once you figure double layer (at least) of 3/4" wood all around, bracing, and port displacement. Still though probably adequate for that much cone area. I've never tested or modeled those myself but 8-10 cube per isn't out of line for high powered 18" woofer in an efficient box and obviously you can stuff them in as small a box as you like, though eventually at the expense of efficiency and/or low extension.... or so says Hoffman. Why would you attempt to shoehorn these into too-small airspace just to throw more power at them to get to the same output as just putting them in a sufficiently large box? What sort of "power handling" do you figure you'll gain from less airspace? What is your goal here? [/QUOTE]
