I have an idea but wanted to bounce it off the sub experts here regarding calculating the volume for a six sided enclosure like the new Paradigm SUB1 and 2 and the Martin Logan Descent.
I am thinking I can first calculate the volume of a Triangular enclosure using the great enclosure calculator located on this site: http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/enclosure-volume-calculator/
Then calculate the volume lost by the 3 sides that would need to be cut out to make the 6 sided enclosure. Basically I am looking to make a polygon but all not all 6 sides may be equal, just 3 and 3 but I haven't got that far yet.
If your wondering what the Paradigm Sub2 is here is some info:

I am not going to be making my own SUB2 but like the force canceling configuration, just check out this demo Paradigm conducted on you tube:
Any ideas on what would be the best method to calculate the volume of such and enclosure?
