I have heard the Brahma, and the Kicker 15L7. They are both pretty rowdy subs, can't comment on the RE, I have not heard it.

The XXX would be my choice from those you listed. I've listened/tested them all.

There are other options, and a few that aren't available to the average consumer.

If you have 6 cubes to work with, the L7 will impress you, with enough power, vented of course.

That's 2 bad...

If you could find another 1/2 a cube, 2.5 cubes sealed is enough for an Eclipse Titanium 15.

You had the two Type R 12's in 2cubes total sealed?

Go with the XXX or B15. With 1500rms either of these will take the two type R's if they were in small sealed.
Personally, I'd go with the XXX 15 in 1.6cu.ft.
Both RE and Adire have excellent customer service and you won't be disappointed in either.
