[QUOTE="newusername, post: 2192123, member: 562064"] The BTL's work in astonishingly small ported enclosures due to their low Qts/Qes, low Vas, and low Mms. How much room does he really have? I really would not recommend using a BTL in a sealed enclosure; optimal performance will definitely be found in a bass reflex enclosure. Any driver can be fine if you watch the gains. There is not really a need to put 1700W on a Q series driver, but I'm sure you will be fine as long as you are careful. Music is so dynamic that it is hard to define when you are using too large of an amplifier, but again, you can adjust the gains accordingly. Would he have to? Well, no one has to, but I would highly recommend it. I personally find midbass more appealing than subbass, so that would be my biggest concern, but it depends upon his musical tastes.
