No... Assuming I'm actually really learning this, too big of a box could possibly hurt your speakers. Though I could be mistaked. Box size=dependent on the sub, certain subs like big, certain like small. Just depends on the design and usually what manufacturer's suggest.

build you sub box to the manufactures specs. a larger box will make your subs sound like crap mostof the time and really boomy.
