Focal Subwoofers?

The Utopias are very high on my list of subs I want to hear //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Unfortunately, that is a sub that you cannot own (not you personally). Reason being, as it is so expensive, the placebo effect would be extraordinary. You'd need to do a blind test before you ever thought of purchasing it when something 1/3 of the price could probably be 90% as good //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

I'm certain of that.

Question is, how much is that 10% worth //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I don't think I'd ever actually buy one, though. Dual 21" Maelstroms in horns would have lower distortion, and be about the same price anyway //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

On the contrary, I think they would be many times more expensive. That's only because after you ended up paying out for turning not only your own but also your neighbor's walls into rubble, you'd probably get fined with a noise violation. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

What if I were to drop to like 2 13s? What kind of enclosure could I do that would sound good? Any chance of a T-line or anything? Only heard a T-line once and it sounded great.
