Hi Greg,
I have built several Pi speakers, and even a few variants. ( One PI towers, and 3 PI's built sidewise. ) If you can , stick to Wayne's plans. They are mature designs, have been in production for a while, and they sound great. I think it's more important to stick to dimension volume in the smaller boxes than the larger ones. Size gives you a little bit of wiggle room. I don't think an extra brace is going to hurt anything. I'm more worried about vent placement, and too much stuffing in the enclosure. You may have standing wave problems if you deviate too far from box dimensions, and vent placement. When you add extra stuffing to vented boxes, transients often lose their edge and sound dull. Experimenting is fun though. And my fire pit always seems to have one of my projects in it.
Steve
