I'm thinking of buying a subwoofer. Which one is better, the SVS SB17 or the XTZ 3x12?

I'm thinking of buying a subwoofer. Which is better, the SVS SB17 or the XTZ 3x12?
Could you help me compare them? Thanks. I'm looking for a subwoofer that delivers authentic sound reproduction. I use it for both home theater and Hi-Fi, so when watching movies, I want a visceral, punch-in-the-chest experience, and when listening to music, I want true-to-life reproduction without any coloration. Please help me choose. Thanks,

Sorry about the late reply. The SVS sub is a small sealed unit for domestic harmony. It stats rolling off at around 30 Hz. SVS do make some really good subs though. The XTZ 3x12 is an all out beast of s sub, but only you can decide what your needs really are.
