difference between Crystal 12"s and 15"s?

Yeah I bug too much about these things but what's the difference between the two? Will the 15" bump more due to sheer size or will they bump exactly the same. The 15"has more room so it will naturallt sound better right?

the 15 will probably be able to handle sounds that are lower. you should look at the freq responce of the two and compare that

I'll be honest...I don't know how to read this so like could you verify wat you said? All the stats for both are here.

you do realize if you want to go with the 15 your box is going to have to be much bigger. the 15 is more sensitive so you would get more responce to lower bass notes

Sealed box, ported box, or bandpass box?

one's a 12", the others a 15". Both make bass. 15" may play a little lower, but it's all dependant on how they're installed.
