Default Which kick harder?

I have been considering the "Premium Replacement Speaker Package" and the "Standard Replacement Speaker Package" from KEE AUDIO. Now, I defnitely want the highest quality speakers, however bass is quite important to me. I don't feel like I'll ever want to add a large sub and box though, so I wanted to know what you guys thought about how each of the bass drivers in the packages were kicking.

I was a bit skeptical, as the "premium" package came with CDT CL-6 midwoofer drivers, and KEE's website says its base frequency range is ~65 hz

But the DVC Bazooka Sub has a frequency base of ~39 hz and has more power handling capabilities it would seem

Which is louder and has better sound quality in the lower ranges? (I do not care much for my bass drivers kicking above 1000 hz anyway)

I am mostly looking for decent quality, but loudness is what I really want.

Thanks ahead of time!

Actually, I was really looking to stay with either one of these, thanks though.

I am on a budget and the packages are hard deals to turn down, I'm still just worried about the bass output on either package

IMO, for sail panel subs I would still lean heavily towards these three!

CDT ES-06($95ea.), CDT HD-M6+($100 ea.), ED e3.6($85 ea.)

I have to advertise according to MAP. I can however price match those with a legit retailer who has them lower. I always do that for members here.
As for the original question...which hit harder...on the stock system, the Bazookas will hit hardest because they utilize the stock amps power the best being DVC subs. I recommend the premium system for aftermarket systems using aftermarket amplification or if you plan on aftermarket amps in the future so you don't have to swap speakers again. For a stock system though the standard package does fine.
I also want to point out that any of the CDT drivers like the M-6, M-6+, and ES-06 or ES-06+ will not hit hard on a stock system at all because they require aftermarket amplification for optimal results. I would recommend at least 75-100watts RMS power to those and the stock system will not put out anywhere near that. You will be disappointed with them or any speaker like that on stock power.
