more cone area....... if its the same make and model. 12s would be louder due to more cone area and so on and so on

well yea or even 15s if you can fit them. may need to save a little more money but its ALWAYS worth it to save

remember that's if there the same make and model.

so a 12" Type R would be louder then a 10" Type R due to more cone area. just like a 15" Type R would be louder then both of them.

The box you put the subs is everything, You can make 10's louder than 12's.

But say if you built a box recommended for for 10's and 12's. Generally the 12's would be louder. So if your asking, "In general, if 12's are louder than 10's, IF they are the same model, just different sizes?" Then your answer is yes, due to cone area.
