Sorry guys i had to ask. I will be building this for my 97 acura cl. Im not looking to compete,looking for hard hitting loud ass bass not spl. i just wanna out slam most guys around me mainly my friend at work 2 12" kicker l7's, with kicker 1000k in a 07 dodge nitro with kicker box. i will be buildin my own box to specs for the sub. I really like the btl's but wonder what would be best for daily. my budget is about 1k and finding used stuff is fine when the time comes. I just can't decide which would be the best choice 18 or 15, and which speaker choose from. I've done all the reading and i guess it is personal choice in both. i might have the room for 2 15's and more cone mass and would keep up better with fast bass as i listen to mostly rap. I don't mind using up most of my trunk but it is big. Sorry for the endless rant and the 1 millionth speaker ?

i would say try the 15" bls take 1500 daily run 3000 total.Only reason saying that the btls are power hungry they need alot of power to get moving.If you want a one sub setup i wouls say the btl 15 should be perfect pm for details i am running one right now on about 3000 watts it gets pretty **** loud
