well looks like it's clear,the btl 12 anyways has suspension problems,from what i read in this thread.

the one i tested didnt //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif and it was a standard 3 slug btl ... only time we got it to make that kinda noise is 10kw and 15 hz below tuning

heres a link to our testing... it was all done with 2kw+

I think its an isolated inocodent with mine. Maybe a flaw in the build. Im going to take it out of the box tomorrow, and I expect to see the spiders pulled up. Its so soft right now, it feels as if there is No suspension what so ever...

Hate to say it...but right now MT.
I know I own a BTL and all. But for all out SPL I would choose the MT. Im a little down about my BTL, so I guess that might be it. But proven is proven. Dealt with both subs ALOT. and right now, MT takes it for me.

I am not very happy with my Fi sub either, so dont worry, your not the only one. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Im just voicing my opinion about what I have dealt with. I hope that your post Nick wasnt directed towards me. I like my BTL, it just won't work. I dont know what the problem is, but the fact remains that every sub I have dropped in have acted fine. Believe me I have put some money into to this and I want things to work more than anyone, and still the fact remains with my BTL, I have found subs that work in My install...but we have yet to find an install that My BTL works in. Several boxes/Amps/cars/electrical system. Same problem, same volume.

Posting as I read as my multi quote thingy dont work.

I agree yet again. I have dropped in my Alpines which are D4's to my d2's and the Alpines sound just as good if not better, sealed to boot. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif I just dont get it. I want to go ported, but I just dont want to waste anymore money.

everybody has thier own preferance,for me its what performs the best,because in spl comps and using alot of power you want something to hold up and perform well.

Its raining today, and I dont want to ruin the box by pulling it out...maybe if it calms down a little later.
