I'd take the Xtant, better sound quality, a little better build quality, and like you said, more features. The JBL would be my next choice. |

the only feature the xtant may have that the JBL doesnt is a subsonic filter...and seeing that you are using a ported box you will need a subsonic filter...
i dont know the price difference in the xtant and the JBL, but if i'm not mistaken the xtant will cost quite a bit more...the JBL usually runs about $225 shipped and you can get a 20hz highpass FMOD to put on it that will act as a subsonic filter (about $25 more)....this is what have for my Brahma 10"
like i said, the JBL BP600.1 is a great amp! |

Check out sounddomain. YOu will have to go with the xtant 6.1 which is the same as the xtant A6001T. Try on ebay a place called electronics delivered and see if they will ship to ontario. |

Yea but I would defintely go with the xtant A6001T or the 6.1. Both are the same amp just the 6.1 is the newer version. I know someone that has the A3001T pushing a JL 15W3 thats 500 rms. That amp only puts out 300 rms and it knocked down his rear view mirror and cracked it. |
