thats a 3 cubic feet gross box. After displacement (space sub and port takes up) you are actually down to around 2.5 cubic feet for both subs which is suffocating them. Looks like its a prefab bro, ditch that and build a custom one.

to find the gross cubic feet, you subtract 1.5 from each of the dimensions because thats how much the wood thickness takes up. so H x W x L after subtracted would be 30 x 11.5 x 15.5 = 5347.5

divide that by 12x12x12(to get cubic feet)= 1728

5347.5/1728 = 3.09 cubic feet, subtract 15-20% for a rough port displacement for a prefab" ballpark. and you are left with barely any usable NET cubic feet.

12volt has a spot you can get cf too I think.
