Ehh I think most people are too involved with watching the SuperBowl right now. It's kinda slow 2night.

On the Fi Q 18, you could prob go as small as you need, but it's not going to be a good output.

Well, my box is dual chambered 8 net each with 80 square inches each of port tuned to about 29-30hz. The box takes up 44.5" x 21.175" x 42" I believe. Yours might be about the same as half of mine... not sure though.
