I'm with you on that kingranch. Two 12s in a box that small doesn't seem right to me. Every other vehicle I had, I ran double 12s in a big box. That's why I was blown away with the sound from the single 10" JL Stealthbox. Fit just fine, and looks like it belongs there.

Best to build a custom box.. that prefab box isnt right for your design. I have a STX with only a half cab and got a custom box with the two biggest 12's DB Drive makes, and still have the other side behind the diver seat empty.

Maybe one day i'll break down and buy a JL.. They really took time developing that enclosure/sub to get the best results... Kicker does the same thing but not so much for vehicle specific but their big box/sub combos are LOUD....

You got a youtube video?

I personally think 10's sound better... like more punchy if that makes sense. you see all the bass guitarist running 4-8 10's and they have almost no restriction on speaker size to worry about
