Both are an 8" sub with a superb high quality 150w BASH amplifier. Much better than the JBLs as they will go lower, and are much cleaner sounding than anything else in the market at that price point. I know the Hsu comes with a 30 day money back guarantee, so you can try it out in your home before you decide to keep it. I think the Outlaw also has a 30 day home trial period, but you should double check to be sure. These subs simply blow away $500 and $600 subs such as the B+W ASW650, which is a pretty good sub in its own right. I used to like the PSB Subzero, but although it is a nice little sub, it cannot keep up with these two.
