What is the best shallow sub on the market??

The BM should compete with the other shallow mount subs for SQ, the Mag isn't quite a shallow mount design therefore I don't think it is quite fair to compare it to subs like the TW5 or RE SL as they were far more constrained in their design to get the shallow mounting depth. I am not saying either of those sound bad as everyone who has come on here having a TW5 has liked it a lot, and I haven't seen anyone on any forum with the RE SL yet.
As for the BM, based on the XBL^2 motor keeping a linear BL and Le curve as well as a few other features for SQ it should be towards the top of the list for Sq for true shallow mount subs.

You really should stop comparing speakers that are not released yet. No matter what terms or vocabulary you use, you'll still sound stupid like you do now.

How so? I guess no one is allowed to comment on anything that isn't out yet even if the technology it is based on has a great history as well as the company? I think what I said is fine, based on the technology it should have pretty good SQ, maybe it won't, I don't know, but based on all past subs using XBL^2 and Le linearization the BM should sound good, I am not saying it will however.

As was said, the SI Mag is still quite a thin sub, but the BM when it comes out will be quite nice. It should compete with anything out there now for SQ, but be quite a bit cheaper. It also has some cool new parts, but I can't say anything about them //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

You are allowed comment on anything you want. It's your choice. Sounding stupid with assumptions is also your choice.

the subs robot underground is selling must be great SQ subs according to your logic.....

As long as the wait has been on that SI BM it better be good.
