but it's also much thicker than the standard flatpack
It look thicker but it is not: the flatpack is 1.5 inches sides, top, bottom, and 3/4 for the middle separator. Mine is also 1.5 inches all around, and 3/4 at the intersection of the 2 tubes.
Right now, I would say the bigger problem is the vibration in the front/back direction of the top of the cabinet. At high volume, when I put my hands on the side of each tubes, there's more vibration on the top one. This is noticeable. I imagine you get the same effect with the standard flatpack and most likely worst on the 3 woofer version. A larger base might mitigate this issue a little bit. The effect is minimized when I add 50 lbs on top of the cabinet. See picture below.
Nevertheless, the bass is super tight, super controlled. I really like it.
