18in FI BL vs. 15in L7

[CL_That_Thumps 10+ year member]

which sub would sound better overall (louder, hit lower, and sound better) ? with one of the below amps.

im probubly going to get the hifonics 1600 rms amp or the 2000 rms amp. I havn't decided yet.

i basically have around 300$ to spend on an amp to push one of the above subs.

im also open to other suggestions on different subs or amps.

thanks

the BL will take a dump on the l7 ( or so I've read)

i dont think the l7 could even handle that. put 2000 on the btl and you will be HAPPY!!!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

im lookin at getting the BL not the BTL so everyone knows.

BL in theory(since it hasnt been heard yet) could like as stated above eat an L7 and shit it out

so the 18in BL would destroy the 15in l7 with the same 2000 rms hifonics amp?

has anyone ever heard the 18in BL or any fi subs for that matter?

the 18inch bl is in between the q (sq driver) and the btl (extreme spl driver) which makes the bl a leaned to a spl driver which will get loud from its specs id say it will get louder then the l7 and sound alot better, in my theory if u know anything bout a re sx its a will be a lil louder then an sx, but i think the sx would sound better

The 18" BL would definitely get louder and handle more overall power, if that is your primary concern.

I dont see how people can say that the BL can be an overall better sub than an L7(im sure it will be) when no one has heard a BL, no one has seen a BL(in person) and no one has messed around with a BL. What their tellin you is jus off of hype give it a week until the BL can prove that it is would its said to be.

Getting mine on the 1st. Woot !

If scott says, it will be in between the Q & BTL, Then i'm sure, it will !

A more fair comparison would be a 15 inch BL with a 15 inch L7

That makes a lot more since. If this thing is comparable to a re sx (I honestly don't know much about the BL) then I don't see it being any better than a L7.
