I wanna make a box for 1 10" Bazooka EL . Can i use 5/8 wood mdf or do i have to use 3/4. Whats the best wood to use if i did use 5/8 tho. Also how do u calculate the volume on a box that is slanted in the front? Thanks

For a 10, u can use thinner mdf. That is the best wood to use. For a Normal box use inner dementions (L)x(W)x(H) /7228= your volume

i use 3/4" mdf with my 15" in a ported box and it does good. So i think i would use that size and u wont have to worry about anything
