What is the Proper Size Box for this Sub?

[dthor68 10+ year member]

I just purchased this Sub, Dayton Audio DCS255-4 10" Classic Subwoofer 4 Ohm. This speaker was recommended by a long shot over 3 other models. It looks like the volume needed for this speaker is very small at .3 cubic feet. I have a 12" x 12" x 12" Sealed Box made of 7/8 MDF. Can I just drop the Dayton in and cram a bunch of stuffing in the box or will I need to cut the box down to make it perform at its best?

Thanks,

Derek

should work fine in that box but have a bit less power handling.
