After a couple weeks of research, Ive decided that an Fi Q might be what im looking for. However a day or so ago, I came across a couple of sites saying the Fi BL might be better suited for SPL needs. This threw a wrench in my plans as I tend to research something TO DEATH before buying as to best avoid buyers remorse. Not here to make this an extremely long an uninformative post. Here are the basics. Im looking for a sub 12" of course. Around 1200w rms to about 1700w or so. I dont currently have an amp so of course this is negotiable. I had it in my mind that a Fi Q was the best bet simply because of its SQ nature. I used to be a kicker guy, until I came across my last sub which was a Boston Acoustics SPG 555 in a sealed box. It spoiled me. Only had it on about 700w rms. Im wanting something similar. Very loud but not stupid like a kicker to where its just muddied up crap. Yes I listen to Hip hop and RnB so I figured the BL is a better bet. However there are times where I listen to Symphonies and dont need this overpowering bass. Essentially something that isnt too too far in one corner. Would the fact that my music tastes span LoFi and Classical to Rap and RnB steer me away from the Fi Q? Any other suggested subs are welcomed. As ive considered AB XFL, SQ, SSA Icon, RE audi, Incriminator Audio. Im open to any ideas. Just want to be able to help the next googler that wants to know something partly specific as this. Box will be custom made of course. Looking around <3cuft or so. Ported or sealed. Im open to either.
