Kenwood amps have never been very strong no matter what the claim. You will get much more SPL out of the 2 12's rather than the one 15 due to the efficiantciey of the 12's compared to the 15. I believe the 12's will be more efficiant than a 15 when paired together, plus you will have more moving mass. Thus creating higher spl. Also, it will be a cleaner bass. The larger the speaker is, the harder it is to control. In addition to that. I think your amp would be much better suited for the 2 12's in a dual voice coil running 2 oms stereo Than running a mono load with the one 15.
