Boomzilla Posted May 25, 2007 Report Posted May 25, 2007 (edited) What advantages does a fully loaded btl have over a reg. btl? Is fully loaded for SPL only? Why does one need to be fully loaded?

Boomzilla Posted May 25, 2007 Author Report Posted May 25, 2007 I miss worded my question, I ment what does a fully loaded BTL have over a non-loaded BTL?

NotoriouslyLoud Posted May 25, 2007 Report Posted May 25, 2007 (edited) i believe you would not want a fully loaded btl for high spl applications... such as a burp or fart box. If you read on fi forum they have what options to go with if you are looking for the most power handing... Such as i belive you would not want the extra cooling if you are using it for an spl application due to the fact it weakens the sub motor structure.... fi forum would be a great tool of info for this question.

sean 371 Posted May 25, 2007 Report Posted May 25, 2007 Sub SQ is a lot more forgiving than mids/highs, as there is no imaging or staging. Basically a sub has to be precise and have a flat response curve...and 90% of that is in the box. So you can make just about any sub sound good, and a nice sub sound shitty.
