    I personally like the yorkville better, it throws better and they are very reliable bottom ends. I never heard the RCH or QSC so I can't comment on those but the JBL are good but doesn't have that low roll link the yorkville in my opinion.

    you would have to consider what music you are playing mostly as well. Hiphop or anything with a low bass note i would go yorkville with chutney indian I would do the JBLs.

    You honestly just have to go by what you like because I'm sure everyone will have a different opinion based on their own listening of sound.

    Yorkville has the loudest output of them all. The QSC KW181 however is my choice in powered subwoofers. For me, the bass sounds cleaner and more accurate. People compliment my sound quite often. The thing that really sold me when I was first making my purchases was that the QSC is way more compact, and its only 67lbs. I can fit two KW181's in my mom's Honda CR-V trunk. I can also fit both my JBL PRX615m's and 1 KW181 in a Honda accord with all my other necessities (NS7, cables, etc.). Transporting the Yorkville is a PAIN. I've done it before lol. I'm a mobile DJ. I need to be mobile. The yorkville is a great speaker, but for mobile rigs, the QSC takes it hands down. Pair it with the right tops, and you'll have a great setup for large crowds.

    Thanks Trev! Think im going to get the JBL PRX715 and one QSC KW181 for now. Where you buy your DJ stuff from? I got a NS6 so that is what i will be using with the system.

    Yorkville - is very good,very deep bass, but VERY HEAVY

    QSC - is very good,not as deep or loud as the yorkville,but for the 88lbs it gives output louder than most single 18's

    RCF's - havent heard them

    JBL - good output for 18's,relatively deep ,but no built-in crossover or internal fan to cool amp(which is a BIG deal)

    ...so my suggestion would be...................QSC KW181
    ..its your choice though

    I want a authorized dealer. Always like the warranty for safe measures.
