Loudest and deepest cab?

Another vote for the 15/6/1 with a 15 sub or the 1515/66/1 . With two 15" woofers fEarfuls are very deep and can go too loud . Fairly easy to haul too .

The 15/6/1-15sub stack is the loudest, deepest thing I've personally ever used. Outdoors with no PA support? No problem :)
 
To get the maximum acoustic loudness per watt look at Bill Fitzmarice cabs
There is no such thing as a "Horn effect" other than horns couple the driver better to air than a regular baffle, you get a lot more volume per watt. Read about it at Bill's site.

Too bad manufacturers don't actually publish measurements and charts. There'd be no question on which had a better curve for what you want to achieve. And construction, design, power, and price, would actually make more sense in comparison. It's done for FOH cabinets, but bass players don't demand it for bass cabs.
