[QUOTE="Hintzyboy, post: 2743965, member: 566521"] First of all, you have not seen them in shops because they only deal direct to the customers. TC makes woofers for Eclipse, and supplies parts for a number of different companies (I believe SoundSplinter uses their motors). The breakdown on Fi is a bit more complicated. Scott Atwell, the owner, was one of the founders or RE Audio (currently owned by US Amps if you didn't know already). He moved on to create Fi Audio and designs his own subs. He also designed for RE (obviously) and is currently designing for Ascendant Audio as well. No TC knock-offs here. As stated before, The TC woofers you listed are on a completely different level than the Fi BTL or BL. Both are built very well and could be a good choice for you. However, The BTL and BL are meant for SPL duty, while the TC woofers are more SQ-oriented. So, before we can answer your question, what are your goals for the system (ie do you want more SQ or SPL) and what is your budget? [/QUOTE]
