Didn't this happen once before when comparing a Sundown amp to a Rockford amp? What I find amusing is where in the section did he say anything negative about the BTL, I think Fi make some damn good subs but a comparison is just that, a comparison. There are too many variables to truly make a determination from a sub swap, he had the time and the speakers so he did it. Would I personally purchase a BTL, no but not because of this comparison, they seem to be more of an SPL sub than a daily driver, I listen to music , I don't burp/fart subs so that's not my area. So when I make the comparison between my (2) 12" SoloBarics and my new Sundown (it's coming soon!) setup, it will be based on what it sounded like with Kicker and what it will sound like once I run Sundown equipment. By the way I have been a Kicker fan for over 15+ years so it won't be biased I will honestly state how I feel about the diffrent setups.
