I want to built speaker box with three 10 inches Octane-R High Excursion Subwoofers. The spec is .4 cubic ft. Want to built box without divider inside and sealed box. I want the box smaller as possible. Do I have to calculate 3 woofer X .4 cubic ft to built a box?
Thank

1: Yes.
2: BAD idea. You need to put dividers in there. If one woofer to become disconnected, it will be destroyed in very short order by the other two's pressure wave.

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."

In addition to what haemphyst stated dividers act as bracing for the box very important.......dont forget to calculate displacment for the dividers.
