The trick with having some good low end extention with 2 eights or one 10" is in sealed enclosure you need some air space. Don't cramp the speakers in the smallest box they can fit in, you need some Cubic feet in there for them to get some low end extention. Cause with smaller boxes tend to push the Frequencey roll off higher, with tends to make kick drums snappy, yet the low end will suffer with a reduced output.

No my friend for 2 8" subs I would go for 0.75 Cubic Feet for each 8" or a 1.25 Cubic foot Box for a 10", if you want a smaller box look to go with a ported box then. Granted these size boxes are not exactly a one size fits all yet most subs will perform well in these dimentions.
