    FI For home use?

    When I first started out trying to prove my worth as a high end installer I blew my employer away when I told him to hook up a potentiometer to the 2nd coil on his 13w7 to tweak the response he was getting in 5 cubic sealed, this after a long discussion about his musical preferences and why he was do adamant about a sealed enclosure... he spent about 5 hours in his car with a 10 watt variable resistor he had laying around and its still in his trunk to this day... he's a bit older and the internet was never his thing, I was just happy to add something to his knowledge base (though in his defense he is the business graduate and his brother who co-owns the shop is the EE graduate. He got the concept down real quickly). I would love to have a driver more specific to the application to play with

    BTL-N2 pics

    i gotta say the one thing nobody else has said but I do miss the circular symmetry in the magnet... obviously I love the progress and I totally plan on buying one of the new BtL woofers for myself once I compare t/s parameters but as you said before about "flame baskets ruling the sales market" I think its more alien than appealing... I've been trying to get my bosses to get some kind of deal with Fi as far as selling your product lines, as we sell tons of expensive JL subs and when I brought them my BtL for a little show-and-tell they even said, "That woofer really would sell itself" (in reference to the impressive motor/magnet), and had amazing compliments for a dual Q 15" install I did for a close friend. They have had bad experiences with warranty issues with some companies, and they were hesitant for that reason alone. Basically what I'm getting at is do you think the BtL line is more or less marketable now? I feel like I would need to demo the woofer for most uninformed customers before they would want it... Regardless of what I may believe is true about "common opinion" I am a huge fan, I like different. If you had to make the magnet Amy Winehouse ugly but it performed better I would still be all over it.
