ashdown 220 blue or fender rumble 150

So I've been to my loval music shops and m really unsure whether to get the fender rumble 150 or ashdown 220, so is there any opinions and also which is louder, the fender has a bigger speaker (15 inch compared to the ashdowns 12) but the ashdown has 70 watts more?
 
If you measured their volume with a db meter they would probably be within a 2 or 3 of each other.

Choose which ever one sounds best to you for your real world application & musical environment.

Fender is soon to release an all new re-engineered & redesigned Rumble series this week at Winter NAMM. :hyper:

The current Fender Rumble 150 is a solidly reliable road-worthy & gig-worthy performer that sounds great with wonderfully rich lucious well defined tone. Plenty of bottom end umph & volume for bar gigs. It also just happens to be the best selling bass combo on the planet. :bassist:

This will be replaced by the new Rumble 200. :cool:
