High End 18" Subs ?

Eventually I'll be starting a new install... right now I have a pair of RE SX dual 1 18s that I was planning on using... they are OK subs but I might consider going with something else that is a little heavier duty...

I was thinking FI BLs or Qs but I'm not sure they will be any better then what I have... I was also thinking TC sounds but since they trippled thier prices I don't see myself going down that road either...

Any recommendations for 18s with a large amount of linear stroke and high power handeling ?

To the original poster I would try the Treo.

for a street system I'd go with a Treo SSX.. if you can find one fron a reliable dealer. I'd probly get one from the states, since the canadian distributor isn't reliable.

RD audio builds some pretty sick 18" subs, if you check them out at www.rdaudio.net let me know if you need a price.
