Short answer: they measure identically, so choose the XV15-BASE unless you need the ICE layout. Both 15-inch ported drivers deliver 119.1dB CEA-2010-A average, with the XV15-BASE using a rear-ported cabinet and the XV15SEICE-BASE adding ICE amplification for a compact, efficient design. The ICE version costs $300 more at $1,895 versus $1,595.
Buy the Power Sound Audio (PSA) XV15-BASE or the Power Sound Audio (PSA) XV15SEICE-BASE, whichever you find used in better condition; both are discontinued. For a new speaker, start with the HSU Research ULS-15 MK2 instead.
