hey all

im really sold on getting a bl 15 for my car. i was just wondering how much it will cost to get it shipped to montreal since it states on the fi site that shipping only free in the states. im also wondering if the flatwind coil is good to get if i plan to use the sub daily (will it give much better sound).

Flatwind doesn't do anything for the sound, it only enables the sub to handle a higher amount of heat (power) due to more surface to cool itself.

If better sound is desired, I'd go with the copper coils, myself.

But since you're interested in a BL anyway, that wouldn't make much sense.

I beg to differ.

In the BL's situation, maybe not a big difference.

But other subs, I've heard a difference.

thanks guys, i guess ill opt for the flatwind coil then if it`ll help cool the sub and possibly make it last longer. i was also wondering if there was a massive difference in bass between the btl and bl sub, cause if there is i wouldnt mind too much paying an extra hundred bucks or so if the difference is enormis. also what would be the ideal number of watts to run a bl or a btl for everyday use. most of all i would like to know how much fi charges to ship outside of the u.s.!!! thanks guys

Actually it does make a difference..more motor strength, it'l handle more power then the standard coil. Generally speaking is louder on the mic as well..

i got it and i like it....... touch down!
