4 modified Klipsch Heresy's with four additional sealed, stuffed and downloaded 12" subwoofers. Cross them over at about 50 - 60 Hz with a sharp slope ( preferably 24 dB's / octave, but 18 dB's will get you by ). Crank it up and bring plenty of power with you : )
As a side note, ported speakers tend to sound like crap when you really start driving them hard. That is, unless they are VERY well designed and / or optimally tuned for best operation in the high spl range.
One sign of a more advanced ported design would be the use of what is called an "aero-port" or some such similar device. This is a port that uses a horn-like flare on both the exit and entrance of the port. Think of it as a port with "Mi-Horns" on each end : )
Passive radiators will almost always sound noticeably slow compared to an optimized sealed design, but are capable of great bass weight in the bottom octaves if really done right. Sean
