[QUOTE="Immacomputer, post: 2881688, member: 570419"] 2-2.5 cubes would be pretty nice and should give you a smooth and deep response. If you're looking for more punchy bass and not as much low end, 1.5 would work well for that. As for building the enclosure, wood glue is what really holds everything together. The screws are used to hold the wood while the glue dries. If you have enough clamps and time, screws are useless. People who put like 4 billion screws in a single panel don't really understand that the screws are not really adding anything to the structural integrity of the enclosure. If you need to use screws, I recommend only using a couple per panel and to pre-drill, countersink, and keep them about 4-5 inches away from the edge of the wood. This will help reduce splitting.
