The cylindrical shape is the key to withstanding the pressure. I've seen prefab tube enclosures made of cardboard. It's a very dense, heavy-duty cardboard...not like a packing box.

how about a wedge shape? where the subs would actually be on the smaller side and the box would flare out kind of and the bottom would be bigger.

scetch but it gives you the idea.... that would be a side view, all of the "walls" would be strait (as in not round) and the subs would be at the top.

It's hard to say. You start straying too far from the norm and it ends up really just becoming a guessing game. I'm assuming you'd like to stick with something tried and true rather than trial and error.
