Can't say about X1s, but for the Maxx2s, front/back tilting seems a lot safer and more stable. I still would have a second person to place a hand on the raised end to make sure that if you happen to raise it too much, it won't go over. On the Maxx2s, I could tell that when the rear was raised enough to allow the wheels to be removed and the spikes inserted, the speaker was heading towards tilting to the front. As long as you are careful and deliberate and have an extra hand, you should be fine. One other thing I did was place a thin rubber mat (like a tool chest drawer liner) under the jack so it wouldn't tend to slip at all on my concrete floor).
Good luck,
Mark
