and that was in a slot ported box...with more than ample port area. I think it was in the 50sq" range. tuned in the low 30s. around 33 or 34.

Gains are set right...I have access to an O-Scope, but Why is it needed. The sub does the same thing on every amp I put it on. Everybox I put it in, every car the box goes in. Same thing, same result.

Witha dmm, with 0db tones. and the gain is relativly low on the amp, at probably 10 Oclock. And thats on volume 21 gains set at 28. I have never had that sub smell...at all.

Chrome MT motor or black MT motor?

 

[tprj82 10+ year member]

a btl is a mt .

if a btl is a mt,then why is mt's made by re audio,and btl's made by fi car audio,and yes i have experiance with both,the mt is a superior sub imo,all i can say about the btl is they bottom out easy and the coil will hit the backplate to easy.the only reason people really choose the btl over the mt is because of the price imo.

scott designed the woofer, we are talking very tiny differences

stock camaro vs a camaro with intake and exhaust still the same thing just slightly modified, if in your cases the mt was a better choice then thats great in other cases most from what i hear their is a gain, i know meade couldnt have been happier with his btls

 

[tprj82 10+ year member]

Im sorry, didnt mean to come off like I was dissin Justin or commmenting on his complications. If you look back at the post you will see that I was only linking the vid to show that a BTL will fail. I think we should be able to agree on that.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

and improperly mounted sub in a bandpass enclosure with the problems he had any sub would fail,

no sub is indestructable especially when one of us tinkers with one

I LOL @ this thread.
Maybe I should start a thread titled "which is better, a GMC envoy or a Chevy Trailblazer"

The Envoy is definitely better:

But yea ive had the motor fall off of a 15" MT with me too and that ***** kept going and it locked up then took it out and it actually broke pieces of the basket it was working so hard

 

[pimpedout97x]

i should make you pay for that

Im not going to argue that the BTL is not better for daily/bassrace scenarios. The MT was not designed with daily in mind, the BTL was(or it least I hope it was considering it is marketed as such). Im arguing that the MT is better suited for higher power, higher tuned SPL scenarios. What are your thoughts on that, or do you believe the BTL is superior to the MT in every way?

 

[MrSector9 10+ year member]

ga12r is the correct man here //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

cooling mods = daily

no cooling mods (no pole vent either) = SPL power

I dont even know why people are still arguing about it.... BTL built for SPL and MT woudl be install dependant/power on what was louder..... like stated WAY before
