The very best enclosure for a Volfenhag subwoofer is a sealed enclosure... a 22 gallon trash can, with the lid tightly sealed.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

Your enclosure is WAY to big. You only need 1.25 to 1.5 per sub sealed. You have over 8 cu.ft. Those subs are highly over rated. 350 -500rms is all i would give them for the pair.
