2 15in orion hcca or 4 15in kicker cvx?

what would be better an louder. the 2 15in orion hccas or 4 15in kicker cvx's. both would be in a ported 3.60cuft box. ill end up spending the same amount either way i go so the price doesnt matter.
$orion sub (each)$395shipped. $ kicker cvx's (each)$180shipped. 2 audioque 2200's (each) $350shipped.

ported box $190 shipped depending if i get one or two of them.
 
no comparison-- the kickers all day
(when you say 3.6 cu.ft. box i hope you mean for each sub, not total, because the box will be much too small for either setup--their recommended minimum ported box sizes are 3 and 3.5)

factors that determine the amount of bass
--RMS wattage
--frequency response
--cone surface area
--boy type
--sensitivity

they both have the same total RMS wattage
the kickers frequency response is 18 - 500 Hz and there is no info for the Orion's
you have twice the cone surface area with the kickers (two more subs)

a speaker that has a sensitivity that's 3dB higher than another will only require half the RMS wattage to achieve same amount of sound/volume and the sensitivity on the Orion's is the lowest i have ever seen at 30 vs 92.3dB (that's absolutely terrible)
