2x2x12inch or 2x15inch subwoofers

I am deciding between either a Rythmik G22, E22, or E15HP2.

I will buy 2 of each.  Would 2 12inch drivers deliver more room pressureization or 1 15inch driver?  Salk recommends 1 15 inch over 2 12inch woofers.  I have 2 REL S510s in the front of the room connected by both High Level and .1 and the speakers higher up would be in the back of the room.

Room is 2200 cubic feet, and has full accoustic treatments.

for what?

I am a fan of a stereo pair of subs, located near the mains, front firing, no ports.

bass imaging is created by both the fundamental's volume (as any imaging is), and by the overtones even if the fundamental is mono

i.e. 36hz 72/144/288 ....

always best to use pre-out to sub, back to main in from sub: that gives the amp and the mains both a break from trying to create low bass

I just re-discovered this track: Mila Drumke, bass solo and vocal

I don't know about streaming, but the bass on the CD is awesome!
