Boners of the month seem to stem from people being inheirtly lazy to do some research on other driver manufacturers. Amazingly enough, there is a whole big wide world of subwoofers out there, if anywone would bother to educate themselves //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

but its easy for a noob just to read FI afer FI post on a few fourms and get the jist of what they think they need...so wtf do you all expect happens //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I swear no one researches anymore.

Those are the eaxact reasons I chose my RL-P.

I researched and it came down to a choice between it and another sub and I felt I made the correct choice because I did my research.

that's what impresses me.

those LA subs you showed moved a lot, but excursion doesn't always = loud.

1. My comment was directed at the OP remarks about finding 10's equal or better. Those LA 10 without a doubt are just that.

2. I dont think Meade is running 10's fyi.

3. Very true, excursion doesn't always equal loud. In this case, it does.

You're close enough. I bet I could change your mind.

I don't see why it did poorly.... They are just tc9 subs which always perform well

maybe it decided to send DC through the speaker terminals and give the poor ID a surprise //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

LOL @ quoting a meade video. 4 18's of ANY KIND worth talking about is going to do that much.

Which is another reason why i sold my BTL. Issue with space and the boner. So many i mean too many people have Fi now. Just wanna be different and go a diff route. I know these subs that came out, which is really impressing. Can't say anything now, but i'll wait till i get it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

I took both boners, but not at the same time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I started off with the Type R's in 5 cubes @ 34hz w/ 1.2K then 2K rms...

Sold the R's and got a 18" BTL and put it in 6.7cubes @ 31hz w/ 2K rms...

I'm really impressed with both setup's and have totally wow'd everyone that I've showed them to. Local caraudio shops are in awe of the output that the type R's can do for being such a budget sub and the BTL they say is just insaine. I've had nothing, but great complaments from the local caraudio chops in my area. I must say though the BTL is way louder, hits lower and gives my audiance much more of a wowing effect.

If anyone in AZ wants to hear my new setup let me know. It's allways soo much better to have heard a sub perform before you buy it. I took my chances with bot setups having not heard either before and was happy with the results.

You hafta hear it to believe it. For the people that base there opinions just off of reading a review of watching a video that just dosent do justice.

BTW this is what I've ran in the past that I use to compare my newest "boner" setups with, so its not like I'm upgrading from a stock stereo ...

(2) 12w6v2's / 1501bd

(2) MTX 9512's / 1501bd (under powered I know)
