(volume= length x width x height) Chances are the box for the 10 isn't big enough, but it may be. Plus, the hole that you actually mount the sub in has to be big enough, and unless you cut out the hole more, the 10" sub box won't be big enough. And all sub boxes don't have ports ("air holes"), the ones with are called ported boxes, the ones without are called sealed boxes. They just give different types of sound.<br><b>References : </b><br> You should look up the specific needs of the sub you have, but usually 12" subs need about 1 or 1.5 cubic feet of volume.
