I'd personally go with the BTLS...They would handle the power a lot better, and definitely be better SPL wise. I have seen a few 9500s in competitions and was not all that impressed with the numbers they put up.
Currently deciding between an 18" Bl or an 18" RL-P.. I am basically looking for just a loud daily driver that will pound the lows. I have 1500 watts on hand to power them.. What could I expect from each sub, and how do they compare?
yeah that would be the tinsel lead..i had that problem with 2 different L7s, including my current one.. I hope Scott can fix them without reconing the sub maybe?>
well...with my current amp I can give the sub 900 watts... I just want to be able to get it to its full potential..And I will be in a competition or two on it..May just set the Rockford to around 1200 watts for daily and crank it up for burps..
Well... I am kind of in a similar situation but mine doesn't need reconed...Just better tinsel leads.. All 4 tinsels have been resoldered back at the terminal...But one just broke near the cone... Could you fix that? It isn't blown or anything...
I am about to get ahold of a Rockford 1501bd which puts out 1500 watts @ 2 ohms...I was just wondering if this would be too much power for the 18" RL-P? I have heard the rating of 1,000 watts is very conservative..
