Which would be louder?

Two Audiobahn 1206T 12"s (1100w RMS each = 2200w RMS for pair) in a ported enclosure

or

Two Kicker L5 15"s (750w RMS each = 1500w RMS for pair) in a sealed box?

Both would be wired to a 1 ohm mono load.
Both would also be powered by the same amp...A Soundstream PCA2000D which puts out 2000w RMS @ 1 ohm mono.

Ported will be louder but sealed will sound better.

oh and for the question in your post, it will depend on the box you use, the 2 kicker 15's in a ported box will be the combonation you are looking for.

whatever subs you want, you can easily build a box for them. If you want SQ, go sealed. If you want SPL, go ported. Simple as that.

Crazy, loudest, and deepest dont go hand in hand. A sealed box will be able to play lower frequencies, whereas a ported box would be louder.

About what brand, model, size, and box type you're looking for.. Well, depends on your budget. How many sq feet do you have? Are you willing to make your blazer into a two seater? And your amp, is that the only amp you'll be able to run? Not going to get very much with only 750 RMS.
