Everything is a compromise of one sort or another. WinISD is free to download. BTW, other than the 2245 for a bit deeper bass, WinISD says that the 2241 is the best alternative and that's what I use..., based on WinISD. The 2241 gives up little in the way of deep bass to the 2245, but has as much more "texture" and volume and can use/will produce better results a smaller cabinet than the 2245. It also gives up some power handling and volume to the 2242, but provides a deeper bass in a smaller cabinet.
That's good info, thank you. I want to mate subs to a pair of Yorkville U15. I don't want to go bigger than 5'. Is there a Mac alternative?
