osixfrontier Posted August 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 why vcant i compare the btl to the xxx iahve already owned the btl and was happy with it but im wondering if the output of the xx is compareable to the btl...so what makes them different both are saposed to be loud... and i know there is a dd dealer in hawaii I personally dont care for the way dd's sound to me they are like kickers on roids.... I have done research and not many people have owned the new XXX there are very little reveiws and even less videos... there is an re dealer in hawaii so getting the XXX wont be a problem... so what are the strong points of each and and the low.. I hear contradicting peole saying that the XXX wont take more than 2500 and others saying the have ran 3000 daily and burped 6000.... does the new btl have better sound quality? is the XXX meant for spl or SQ? 99 4runner walled 2 18 fi btl ufo psi recones 15 cubes 33hz port bottom behind the C pillar orion hcca 8000.1d 8 Polk audio mm 691 6x9 2 2000x4 hifonics 320 amp singer alt 3 g31 1 baby seat 1 booster seat and daily driven!

Forevrbumpn Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 besides $1500 and maybe another 2-3" excursion, I dont see why you cant compare the 2 haha But really, I think below 30hz the newer XXX will dominate, and the BTL will just get over all louder I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

Brick2560 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 you still cant, the XXX is a more SQ based subwoofer if I'm not mistaken, the BTL is SPL "Buy some shit, Build some shit, Bang some shit!" - Dr. DB Joe owns my soul.

I was actually going to mention, MAYBE Roscoe is the man to ask in this decision, he ran 4- 18" newer model XXX18s, and hes been around BTL 18s I have a ritual called "terminator".
