Would you agree that the Fi BL is a good mix of spl and sq?

I had two of them and they got plenty loud but I am not a fan of ported. If I ever get fi again it would be Q's sealed. I would try fi again nice solid well built sub just those bls didn't have the sound I wanted, but got plenty loud.

**** thats not what i wanted to hear....So what if the Q's dont get loud enough for you?

I need something with a good mix. I thought the BL was there sub that was between the BTL and the Q. So that would seem like thats what they have to offer me. Hmmm.... maybe fi isnt what i want.....

The BL sounds decent. Dude commenting is biased since he doesn't like ported. But for a loud sub, I think it has decent sq.

Ya ive owned 3 different 15"s. SSA icons. DC sound lab level4's and Fi BL's. I didnt think the BL's sounded all that good. But how much power you working with?

I loved my Fi BL's.. they hit lows extremely well and had nice upper extension, I thought they sounded excellent. Maybe it was the box. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Wish I still had them. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

If you get a bl and build a good box for it you will be very happy.

if you want loud and are going ported for the money spent i will say well worth it. but if SQ is what you are truly after it just isn't there. They do sound good don't get me wrong I liked them but SQ and loud to me has always been more about a decent amount of power into lots of cone area for low distortion and sealed.

You will want a ported box. If you have 1300-1700 watts on hand, get a BL and put it in a proper enclosure. It will sound good, and not be "sloppy" assuming you have it in a good enclosure. If you have 800-1200 go with the Q, unless you plan on upgrading to more power in the future. Stick that in a good ported enclosure also.

Notice the bold. I can't stress that enough, as that is really all that is key.

Yeah i was thinking of buying a sundown SAZ-3000. With that i would be open to alot more. What do you guys think with that kind of power? I heard the BTL has no sq.

Why does it seem you HAVE to give up sq to have shit that pounds?

 

[gotparts90 10+ year member]

If you get a 3000 and 2 Bls it would rock and till sound Ok for an spl vehicle. But do not skimp on the box, it will sound like crap no matter what woofer it is in a shit box.
