You will get a noticealbe increase in output with a 12" than a 10". There are 12's that are designed to fit in small boxes and 10's that need big boxes.

Be sure to check the recommended cubic foot size for any sub before you buy.

Off hand I know that Elemental Designs and Reasonant Engineering make 12's for .5 cu.ft. boxes. I'm sure there are many others.
