Powerbass Xs 15's vs Type R 15's

[MrSplorDie 10+ year member]

I was planning on buying a pair of 15in Type R's, but i recentley heard my freinds setup of 2 12'in Powerbass xtreme's, and //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif they impressed the hell outta of me, so now i'm thinking about either getting some Powerbass Xs.15's or the Type R's, but which setup should i go with?

looks pretty nice...could be a tough decision... could go the money route, whichever is cheaper...

eh, those two subs are pretty much in the same league. Ive played with both many times, go with whatever is cheaper or matches your interior better (if thats important to ya).

ive done a lot of stuff with powerbass and i think imo that the pbx's will be louder given proper power and enclosure! the pbx 15 will take 3000+ for burps and daily ive had one on 2200 rms with no issues for 3 months straight and i beat that thing to hell and back and it never failed as a matter of fact the guy i sold it to is still beating on it with 1800 rms
