Short answer: the XV15-BASE for 119.1dB output at a lower price. The PSA XV15 is a 15-inch ported downfirer with 500W delivering crisp detailed bass that digs deep into the lowest frequencies, but the BASE cabinet posts 119.1dB CEA-2010-A average and costs $400 less at $1,595 versus $1,995.
Buy the Power Sound Audio (PSA) XV15 or the Power Sound Audio (PSA) XV15-BASE, whichever you find used in better condition; both are discontinued. For a new speaker, start with the HSU Research ULS-15 MK2 instead.
