Fi No Longer Selling BTL Subwoofers??

I thought they changed the name to BL now? im on their site and I can see the BL 10, 12, 15, and 18.

No, that line has been there for years. Its commonly referred to as the "SPL" version of the Q; whereas the Q is perceived to be the more SQ oriented sub.

ahh okay. I was wondering why the btl and the q series had the same rms rating.

Well, for the price and specs of the SP4 vs the BTL line, I would get the SP4. Guessing SP4 cost to make and neo pricing helped that decision? Looks as if they have some new stuff coming out though, so who knows?

problem with the SP4... they don't come in 12s... not everyone wants to run huge subs.

Thanks I was pretty excited about the alt myself. kind of like a school girl, in a dress, on a swing. lol

It's warming up enough that the donut-punching cyclist douchenozzles are getting their two wheeled fagmobiles out.

Typo... The BL and Q have the same ratings. The BL has less Xmax, if I remember right, more motor force and higher FS. Where as the Q was supposed to be a not record breaking sub for spl, but dug deep and low and clean.

This.... I'd run a SP4 12 for sure. But the issue is like trying to make level 5 12's or something... The spider ends up being larger then the cone or something to that effect.

It'd be like an SA-8 vs SA-12 they'd be totally different drivers if you did build one.

I'm gonna hate
