Think id be all over Fi Qs or BTs

you can get them however built you want, if you email them.

and alot of people seem to be VERY happy with their product.

I see the 'super heavy weights' can be made with a 4" coil but they are advertised as SPL subs... the Alpha and the Heavyweight look pretty sweet but it would be nice to know T/S paramaters and like Xmag so I know how linear the things actually are....


Anyway, the thing I do like about my SX's is that they don't weight 60+ lbs each.... I wish someone made some bad *** subs using neo mags (other then critical mass, which arn't that great IMO anyway)

So I was also thinking a couple Adire Tumult 18s would be pretty sic... untill I went to thier website and saw this: Thanks from all of us at Adire!

Fi Q
AA Havoc
SS Rl-p
RE XXX
RE MX
Aura MR

Most linear of the bunch would be the MR and the XXX. The MR is probably the best option for what you're looking for: the underhung motor has better linearity than others on the list, it can take 1kW, and it stays light thanks to it's neodymium stack.

I remember those Aura subs being compared directly to the CM's.... but at first glance to me they look like they actually weight more with less Xmag then my SXs or even the aformentioned Treo SSX's....


It's to bad the TC LMS's are so expensive now...
