Just some thoughts ahead...

A single 10" speaker has a surface area of 78.5 ² inches. You have two of them- resulting in 157²inches. Are you thinking of replacing it with a single 12" with a surface of 113²inches?
Before you are going to replace them, do the replacement speakers have enough air volume to breath? Does the "Vas volume" fits? If not- it will be waisted money. Bigger speakers must play with an appropriate enclosure. Check, before you are going to buy and maybe get disappointed.
