like after all of the space the subs and port take up also called net box volume. what you currently looking at when you look at the google sketchup is gross box volume which does not include these. and memphis's website is confising as shit lol

Okay if the subs need 4.00-4.80 cubic feet and the smallest box I build will have 5.56 cubic ft. Will I have enough box for a port? I can build my box 5 inches taller and 3 inches deeper.

Would it hurt to have too much box cause the measurements I have are for a 5.56 cubic foot box. I get lost on measuring the port. How do I figure the calculations for that?

yea to much box would make the subs go wowbonkers! on low notes and you dont want that. since you probably arent the best google sketchup user yet id try to get a general idea using RE box calculator
