If this softbox is 48 inches long, can one speedlight evenly light it?

Any thoughts?

For reference, I usually use a Yongnuo 560-II in each one. Plenty of light, and if there's any inconsistency in spread, it's so miniscule that if you find it you should probably chastise yourself for wasting precious life energy trying to find the flaw.

And the more I look at the one in your link, I think that's the one I bought. If so, you should be forewarned that it's a little bit fussy to set up, but after you've done it a few times it's not so bad.
