Great price for those speakers! PiAlign suggests 1.1ft3 tuned to 40Hz, which is in between the size of the one π and two π cabinets. Your speaker will work very nicely in boxes from 1.0ft3 to 5.0ft3 (28L - 140L) tuned to 40Hz - 45Hz. Basically, it will work in either the two π or two π tower with a port change to raise the Helmholtz frequency.

That's a handy link, thanks. It looks like the forumulas are slightly different, but they calculate similarly. Notice the length offset on one formula is (L + 0.8d) and the other is (L + 8/3πd).
8/3π = 0.85, so the formula are very similar. One uses 0.8d for length offset and the other uses 0.85d.
