You're right, it's SQ in the judges opinion, which is still subjective //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif And a rule book can't tell someone what sounds good to them, so YES it's very subjective in the real world, but more defined for comps is all... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

SQ is not subjective, but how we measure its accuracy is. Unfortunately some people turn this into 'SQ is subjective' and decide this means they can say anything they want in terms of what sounds 'good'. This includes such falacies as sub diameter plays any significant role in its ability to have 'SQ', MT's and BTL's sound 'good', and running multiple subs sounds 'good'.
Good judges do not evaluate systems based on their personal preference in the sound. They have specific cues they listen for, and try to make as scientific and accurate an evaluation as they can. At least... that's what they are suppose to do. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

i would look into the tc-1000/rl-i 8's (both the same , basicly). very well rounded subs. get loud and sound **** good doing it. i have 500wrms a piece going to mine and i still get suprized how loud they get for being thier size. i had one of mine in .4cuft sealed and .8cuft ported. though i prefer the ported box , its no slouch in a sealed box if space is an issue. mos def some woofers to look into. imo.
