FiQZetecS

I find mine to be great tonal wise. They have been taking 270wrms per side for ages and havent broken a sweat.

Fair enough, I'll keep the Z1 aside for when the SMD's come out I just assumed the Fi ethos of power handling would be like the RE of yesteryear.

I have been running a set for about a year now being powered off a DLS A3 receiving 270wrms per side. Pro's -Midbass monsters -Very defined and tonal -Tweeters not harsh at all -Excellent Xover's provided -Extra power doesnt seem to affect them at all -One set manages to keep up with a 145db set up. Con's -Motor is absolutely huge and will require custom housing in most cars Other than that I cant say a bad word about them. Hope that helps.

I have two 18" BL's with all the upgrades and the daily option. I proposed to put them in a wall (around 8cuft per sub) and power them off a Trutech Hammer each (1.5kw per sub) Now I've managed to get my hands on a 5kw amp and was wondering how much power can the BL's realistically take without dying on a daily basis ?
