Sealed box size for Focal 27KX

According to the downloaded *.pdf from Focal, their recommended box sizes from that sub is: 0.71, 1.06, 1.41 cu.ft

Can anyone that has auditioned this sub tell me which application would give the most output with accuracy.

Also does inverting the sub alter sound performance?

I'm going to start with 1.00 cuft and see how she does then go from there. I'm placing it in an odd area so I have to make sure the positioning is optimal!

Yeah... I'm just going to move this to the SQ section because it really doesn't have anything to do with SPL

I have an old 1 cu.ft box kicking around that I use for burn in. I'll try that. Easier to make a new top plate then a box!
