Thanks for the reply also if you don't mind me asking how deep is that box and are those particular subs a thin line where the normal depth for subs I have twin 10" Alpine's in my 2010 grand sport convertible with the Alpine sub amp...sounds amazing and going to switch them over when my new Z06 2lt shows up but they are little deeper I believe ...then don't know if the new top would fit in the car!

Hello I was wondering how the 10 inch sub woofer worked in the box that it came with built into the Corvette I'm getting a 2016 062 LT and I already have a pair of Alpine typeR subs but I have not heard the JL.
is the one 10 inch speakers sufficient sub in your opinion?
thank you so much

Just curious did you switch out any other speakers and why did you go with for 8 inch subs instead of 2/10 inch or bigger was a depth issue? please let me know is I am picking up a new Zo6/2lt in about 12 weeks and I want to have everything ready to go for it thank you so much....

I would match the sub to the enclosure for the best solution.
