I am frequently amazed that my fellow contributors try and reinvent the wheel. If you go to Troels Gravesen in his prime, you will find he did the SEAS CA18RLY to death!
16L or 24L reflex seems to do the bass trick. I have often enough visited the SEAS factory in Moss, Norway to see what these fine people do.
TBH, a driver with a Qts of 0.47 is saying closed box to me, albeit in the measured Vas of 32L. H1217-08 CA18RLY
But if you can accept a slight bass bump for a smaller box reflex, that's OK too.

very interesting article, thank you!
using 5 cm thick polyurethane panels on each side, does the apparent volume increase or have no influence?
It can't, until you also include driver Vas, Fs, effective Q (Qts + any series resistance in the circuit from wire, connections, series inductors &c.), and the box tuning. Once you've included those: then you can calculate the mathematical anechoic response of a vented box (not the same thing as a traditional bass reflex).
