no, but they are dreaming.

Has anyone made this happen in an X-series?

I seem to remember someone making it fit?



I am wondering if the 10" can be swapped for 12".

I know there are a few JL models in 12" that have different "depth"



I like the Idea of the 12" sub after have 2 of them in my last boat (G21)

Its an entirely different level of effortless bass/sub even at low volumes.



if there is a thread on this please post

I thought the G21 was limited to 2x 10" JL IB subs and you had to get a G23 or G25 with WaveFront sound to get 2x 12" IB subs??

I did the 12 inch JL IB sub in factory location on a '13 x25. My pictures are the second install in that thread linked a couple times. I powered it with a kicker cxa1200.1. ITs a substantial difference and worth the work and money for that sub. The 10 inch IB with the stock power is useless compared to the 12 inch with decent power in the same location. I didn't have to move the barrier that seperates the cooler from the sub, but if you do have to for other model boats Im sure its no problem. Its just two screws. I have 2 Wetsounds XXX in the observers compartment and it surprised my how much the 12 inch IB sub puts out even with the XXX's playing as well. (thats with the observers compartment open too for the comparison).

Don't assume that since it fits in an x25 that it will fit in every model. The x25 has an extra raised portion to give it more room. The x2 doesn't have that and I'm pretty sure it won't fit. I looked pretty hard at doing it. It also looks like the xt22 has the adjustable recliner back and looks like it might not fit there either.

^^^^^ this right here. The 12" sub wouldn't fit in a X23 as the 10" sub was a tight fit

No assumption made, I saw on my X2 that there isn't much room available with the 10. I also noticed the X25 has the step up for the back rest. I'm looking past a easy direct swap, looking at doing a little modification to make it work. Haven't figured a path yet, but I will come up with something. Plan B is to install under the helm.

Someone did it in an x30 as well

From my calculations I can make it work, I would have to trim the bezel of the speaker some, which wouldn't affect performance, but it depends on how devoted/ lazy I am at the time whether or not I go that route.

I remember thinking it was gonna be tight in my X30....but at that time JL did not have a Marine 12" grill /speaker combo.
so Im not sure now

My G21 had the Factory 10" in the observer seat.
+ a JL 2x12 super Sub in the Starboard rear locker.

it made the Boat shake when desired. It also warmed up the Sound at Surf Distance.

And at almost 90 pounds added extra ballast
