3 BTL 18's Vs. 2 21" wardens Vs. any other options!

[46panel 10+ year member]

Got rid of my 4 18" fully loaded 07 BL's and now wanting to upgrade. Those subs were in a horribly small box and decided I want to try something else. Want a loud daily driver that can occassionally compete. Going to most likely either wall, or do some sort or 4th order or clamshell. I got around 26-27 cubes and will be powered by two Sundown Saz-3000D amps. I am just really worried about losing so much cone area going from the 4 18" BL, but I know that box was not good and wasn't near its potential so I think I can get louder. Thinking about 2 21" wardens, or 3 BTL 18's, or anything else really.

wardens

Reasons? About the same amount of cone area as the BTL's but 2 vs 3. Also will either of these be louder than the 4 07 model BL's?

Is a 250A alternator and 3 HC1800s for charging system truly capable of handling ~/>6kW?

Idk, never used either one. The Wardens are different and HUGE! It will just be a million times kooler IMO

Because strength of the motor structure compared between the warden and the BTL.

And he's working on the Charging system, But it suffice for the time being.

Irrelvant post and is not what I was running, was 1800 up front two walmarts in the back and yes I was running it with a pretty big drop, but not no more. ANYWAYS back to the sub discussion please.

I have now had the pleaseure of trying the warden and BTL. did not get to test in same install however, but have a basic understanding of power handling from both. Still have not had the chance to max out the warden yet, and I already say Warden > BTL
