I'm not sure, I've never heard anything wrong with square boxes. As long as the airspace is right, then it should be fine.

That is what I always thought but I have heard on this forum that it is best to have the front of the box at an angle.

Just was wonderin' why.

here is the theory ( I don't agree with it ) with a perfectly square enclosure you run the risk of cancelation due to standing waves in the enclosure. But at the length of low frequency waves your enclsoure would be the size of a bus for this to actually happen. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Unless your enclosure is humongous don't worry about it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

That is one stupid theory lol, I agree with it to some extent, but only if the box huge like you said.

looks and a better fit. And it's less likely to tip over if someone doesn't fasten it down properly. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
