    Here's what Ed had to say when I was debating a 3rd sub in my HT comparing the two.

    "The Plus/2 in the 20 Hz tune has about the same max output capability as the PB13U. The two trade places depending on the test frequency, but in-room SPL peaks on source material will be similar from either. Adding a 3rd Plus/2 or a PB13U to your dual Plus/2 will increase max SPL capability by about 3 dB (around 40% more acoustic output). "
    Shoot the jumper.....................BALLIN.............!!!!!

    Agreed, The Ultra-13 has a Fatter bigger sound, the Plus/2 has a lil
    quicker sound. Both have outrageous Output and hit hard. I will be selling
    this Plus /2.

    Sounds like it, but I think he has a 13U and was wanting to add a second sub. Not sure what happened there.
