Don Cheech Posted May 1, 2010 Report Posted May 1, 2010 i more into SQ than SPL, but i also really like it loud enough to i can be heard coming down the street, so my ? is if i get the fi Bl, will the SQ suffer badly, or is SQ difference not significant between the Q and the BL, or is the Q loud enough to hear coming down the road, BTW im talking about 12" inch subs UPDATE: well im not totally set on 12's i might possibly get a 15 but whats the diff. between a 12 and 15?
chapo123 Posted May 1, 2010 Report Posted May 1, 2010 the bl prob has good sq. because my 12 fi btl pushed off a memphis amp in a PORTED box sounds clear belive it or not. i have allll stock mids and highs and factory head unit. its only 4 6x9s all factory. you can hear them perfectly. cant imagine a bl. because the btl sounds pretty clean to me. havent heard the other fi models. Steve I don't know why but everytime I see your new paint I want a Dr. Pepper...... is this normal? heres an analogy for you. running a high power stereo without a fuse is like having unprotected sex with that hot chick at the bar with the sketchy sexual history. Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked. i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat 2 sa12s, saz1500 build log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/91183-chapo123s-sundown-build-log/page__gopid__1250604entry1250604
maniac74 Posted May 1, 2010 Report Posted May 1, 2010 i have 1 q 18 and trust me you can here me coming down a few blocks away atleast, the 12's should knock with either option, most people say the sound quality of bl's and btl's is great also i don't think you can go wrong either way imo. 99 suburban 20" boss motorsport wheels big 3 installed (thanks Iraggi) alpine 9886 deck kenwood 11 band eq fosgate t5002 amp running sub kenwood ps200 amp running components jl xr components in front doors jl xr 6.5 in rear doors jl in rear roof 1 FI Q 18" with bp enclosure 8 cubes 138 sq" port 34hz Iraggi 220 ho alt (RF 1500bd coming soon)
