AI James Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 the older models are more durable and most xxx fans will tell you to go and try to find i believe an 06? model, before they were shipped over seas to be madei'm all for the xxx i love that sub wrong they arent more durable, the spiders wear down and then its recone time. people say to get the old 05 and older xxx because 1 they are cheap and 2 they think xbl2 > all. at least put some findings in if your going to say ones more durable then the other rather then it seeming like hearsay. thats pretty much my only problem with internet forums, alot of opinion is based off he said she said rather then people actually having a knowledgable view of a product Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roscoe1129 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 can the ppl who have never used or had any real experiance with the items of discussion kindly start staying out of it? Im tired of ppl getting reviews from folks that "heard this or seen that" But have never tested in real life. That said and done James and Ken are correct. You have to decide which is going to suite you better and If money isnt an issue I say go for the XXX's unless you want straight brutality compared to subltle Brutality.

bigbodylexus Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Having heard both and owned one of them (XXX) I lean towards the BTL, even without money being an issue the newer models of the XXX's don't have what they used to. I don't think either sub would be a bad choice, that's just my .02 Quote 1990 Chevy Suburban (Big Booty Judy) (4) Sundown Audio Zv5 18's (1) Sundown Audio Salt 12K (1) Sundown Audio SAX-100.4 (1) Sundown Audio SAE-50.4 (2) Crossfire ST-1 Tweeters (2) Obsidian Audio ST-1 tweeters (4) Sundown Audio Neo Pro v3 6.5's Saving 2nd Bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevyBoy Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 no offense, but if you base your buying on a video of a sub with no hands on it real life, then thats kinda stupid. like james said, get some hands on experience. i had the old model btl and wasnt impressed really with the sq (granted its an spl sub) ill take the xxx daily over a btl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emperorjj1 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 old XXX ftw. but if your seriously looking at the XXX's in 15s we have 2 blown ones sitting at the shop. we'll recone em someday but not high on my list of things to do. still wouldnt be as cheap as a BTL thou Quote J. JMy CardomainFINISHED COBALT SS/SC DUAL ALTERNATOR PICS theres no such thing as too expensive when it comes to upgrades like that, because imo if you are gonna spend to upgrade then do it correctly rather then be a cheap ass ricer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
