The Colossus 15XB has a higher Fs and slightly lower Qes which could indicate less awfullness when combined, it's not certain though, as apart from that the drivers are quite alike.
If it wasn't awfull but not great either, I would advise to listen to it some more and play with the high pass, low pass and perhaps some in/out of band, all of the above make it more or less awfull in the wrong settings or if absend.
Perhaps you're in the 1% group that dislikes the sound (at least openly), it will grow on you though
Best regards

Cheers.
I have said this before I don't beleive that Peavey Speakers are suited to the CUBO design because there are much better drivers out there. Peavey Speakers will sound reasonably ok in their own cabs.
I have built a pair of Cubo 15's with PDN.15SB40's and you would not beleive what these cabs can do with a matrix XP5000 running at 8Ohms per side.
I have also built 2 15" & 2 18" Cubos with Enenence Kappa's and Delta Pro 18's and they were great too but the PDN's are unbeleiveable.
Thanks Again MR CUBO!!!!!

What makes you feel that it doesn't reach 40 Hz close enough?

I tried a Peavey Lowrider 18" in a Cubo18ext. It performed very badly. Sadly, the Peavey Lowriders are only really suitable to BR alignments. I like the Cubo18 though and I'm now saving for a different driver. I'm in Australia, so sourcing drivers is expensive. Going to try a Ande SB18-5 www.andeyinxiang.com.cn/eng/Arti ... icleID=215
I know this is related more to Cubo18 but I think the Peavey Lowrider 15" would be designed with similar BR based purpose in mind. I also have a thread on diyaudio where I was discussing the attempt with others:
