I have never noticed any bottoming out in this enclosure as of yet. but hey thats why I asked if there were any cons.

To add B.J. Fisher of http://www.fishercustoms.com/ was going to build me a 4cf box for these two thats why I opted to build the 4.6 so when I droped in the third sub it would be about 1.5 per sub

So if i were to buid a smaller box do you think I have / should go down to a 2.5 cf box or could I get away with say a 3-3.5cf  and be safe.

WinISD Pro shows me, for two subs, 2.5 net cu ft and maxing at 500 watts.  The blue line shows 3 subs in 4.6 cu ft net and maxing at 600 watts.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
