Looking for some sub box design advice. I just picked up an Alpine Type S 10" sub and am looking to build a 1ft³ sealed box. In the following image I have drawn up 4 different designs and was wondering if any of the designs would be better then the other. It others words, which design would be the best design?

Thanks. All four will fit fine as it is going in a trunk, I am just curious if there were advantages with either a slanted face of flat face.

not really. a box is a box, long as the airspace is the same, it'll work well.

What if you use egg carton type foam inside?
