moh.vze.com Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 Question above^ I know that sooner or later I'm going to buy a Fi BTL sub, but my question is why does everyone go with the 18''? Has it been proven that an 18'' Fi BTL is a better value as far as performance go vs a 12'' or a 15'' fi BTL? I'm just doing my research before I buy the sub (I probably wont' buy it for another year or two). Are the prices on these Fi BTL's going to increase over the years once they've been well known all over the internet or will the prices still be the same? What size Fi BTL sub & ported box will work best for a 1999 Toyota XLe Camry v6 anyway (trunk)? Hmmm. Two 12'' Type-R's 1400 watts total vs 1 Fi BTL 12'' ... Which outputs more bass I wonder.

AI James Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 most people go with the 18 for the cone area versus the smaller versions. the 12 and 125 are just as good but as cone area goes up, essentially your running appoximately the same cone area with 1 18 as 2.5 12"s
mrwigglezdj Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 i think many run the 18s because of the "wow"factor and thats alot of cone area for one sub Americas loudest work van2006 iasca heavyweight bassboxing champion at 150.4 db with 60second average TL8 memphis PR15s,12 memphis PR6.5's coax,4 memphis PR 1inch tweets
moh.vze.com Posted January 13, 2008 Author Report Posted January 13, 2008 I see. So I guess the Fi BTL 18'' is best for people with large vehicles such as SUV's, Hummers and trucks. Hmm. I guess it works for cars too but it has to have a lot of space for the box like a wagon. Normal people wouldn't wall off their backseat like meade's honda to put 18''s An Fi BTL 18'' in a car trunk = no way right?

AI James Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 theres other people who put 18s in thier trunk myself i rather multiple small subs then a single 18 though
AlpineGuy87 Posted January 13, 2008 Report Posted January 13, 2008 Go big or Go home!? Why would someone want bunch little tens when they can get a BIG 18 I mean really.. not too many people get to see 18's and if you say you got a system people like... what you got like two twelves or something.. you'll be like no i got two 18's lol.. wigglez is right, its a WOW factor!! and its basically bigger and if you think, one sub being able to push more air 06 SCION tC
