The thing is you have 6cf going by external dimensions, once you add in sub displacement, the area taken up by the mdf, and the area needed for a port large enough to get rid of any port noise, you only have 3.5-4cf to work with. Technically it would work, but I think you'll have better results going with a single 15. You can give it the space it needs/deserves, you'll get similar output, your electrical system might actually be able to handle the draw, and you'll have the boner factor of owning a 15 (which IMO is at least as big, if not bigger than the boner of owning 2 12's).
