The AE AV15 seems to model the same as the adire tempest (in a sealed box at least)
If I was looking at subs to go under mtm's , stereo style, cost no object, waf an issue, I'd build a pair of subs as speaker stands with 2x 10" on the front and 2x10" on the back. ie: 8 speakers total. Could easily get away with 8"ers in this app aswell. Look for drivers that model to a low Q (0.5) in the box. Again I'd buy the peerless xls 10" as its about the only thing available in the UK, and it has an excellent reputation. These subs could move serious amounts of air, while only taking the 'dead space' of the speaker stands.
8 x xls 10" measures up easily against 3 x 15" tempests. ! You wouldn't even need the rava anymore...
El-pipo : not necessarily but a big ol' box would be needed. WAF can be worked around by building subs into furniture (tv stands, cofee tables etc)

Should have added : if the enclosure works out too wide with the subs on the front and back, you can put them on the sides instead..

AE AV line of subwoofers is better than the old Adire Audio Shiva/Tempest line, the price is also higher.
Comparing it with the new Adire Audio line, it would compare with the Maelstrom line but two times cheaper.
The aluminium cone also give a stunning visual look.
