if you really care for a good hard hitting bass, I'd go for Z-5500.

this is why:

Z-5500
Subwoofer: 10” high-excursion ported driver with 6th order bass reflex enclosure.

>> when you say 6th order,its a bandpass system that has a good sounding effect
of the driver (subwoofer).

while X-450 only throws:

Subwoofer: 5.25" ported driver.


...remember,always go for the bigger driver (subwoofer) in terms of circumference
or diameter.

Z-5500 - 10”


X-450 - 5.25"

likewise the handling power:

Z-5500 - 188 watts RMS

X-450 - 70 watts RMS

at the very least, consider your room size also, the big Z5500 is not meant for small room.

hence, if u got an average sized room and money to spare, get the Z5500....
X540 is meant for the small room and those on tight budget..

Thanks both for you
