Another budget blowthru
If they are sent the same frequencies, there shouldn't be any cancellation, just different response curves. It should perform well, Alan Dante is using a combination of 18" and 12" woofers in his new SPL vehicle doing 180+.

They each have their strong points, BF3 is more realistic, yes.

18" BTL N2 Box Design
Taking away port area, if it is already near perfect, is not beneficial.

18" BTL N2 Box Design
Fi recommends 4.5-8 cubic feet, do you know more about Fi subwoofers than Fi does? Are they doing something wrong? Damn you need to be on the payroll.

Welcome to the IHoP
I started driving at 14.5, it's important to teach children the rules of the road at a young age, I had my license at 16 and have never been in an at-fault accident.

Ampless component suggestions
Then just go to sonicelectronix and read reviews on 6.5 comps and pick a set? x2, your asking a site where 99% of people actually put amps on their interior speakers Lol!

4 re audio se 15's or 1 zcon 15?
Cone area should win there.

.7 ohms DCR? You'll never see impedance that low.

Just how important is port area?
17 sq ft of port? fuck thats a huge port. Did you miss the slash? 17"/sqft = 17 inches per square foot. Which, by the way, is a stupid rule of thumb.

SSA ICON 18"
I believe the 18" is a US basket.

Just how important is port area?
Remember, port area is dependent on the displacement capabilities of the woofer being used.

Just how important is port area?
Too little port area ends up performing like a leaky sealed box, which is not a good thing. Power handling increases because efficiency takes a dive, just as a normal sealed alignment would, in this hobby efficiency is extremely important as we normally have electrical system limitations. Power handling is primarily dependent on how large the internal area of the enclosure is, remember that also determines efficiency and possible air displacement.

anyone with DD audio experience
Then you are correct in your assumptions

A pulp cone will be slightly heavier, increasing moving mass, it should sound "warmer"

Your gain halfway means absolutely nothing.

SQ, for a subwoofer amplifier? Won't matter. If you want SQ the front state is where you want to concentrate.

2ohm voice coils
Yes, inductance changes every time the coil moves.
-
2ohm voice coils
No, say if the coil was blown, or a lead snapped, there would be no resistance

2ohm voice coils
Impedance, not inductance. You are reading the direct current resistance, a D2 coil is normally about 1.4 ohms per coil, and a D1 is normally 0.7 ohms per coil.
