Just got my BTLs. My first 18" subs.

My old system was (4) 15" SSDs.

It looks like you have quite a nice collection of equipment.

Those magnets on your btl's look different from what ive seen on other's.

New?

:)

I don't think they are new, maybe Scott is incorporating more cooling into them. Similar to the RE XXX magnet cooling.

Why is she plugged up?

No Rob is talking about the 4 slots in the magnet. They are for cooling.

hmm they look awesome!

That motor design is what they went to after the old triple slug design. I believe it changed about a year ago. The plugged up pole piece helps with cooling. It is explained either on their forum or website.

whats different about the new motors? my btl looks like that

Okay guys, we are not talking about the new motor design. We all know. We also know about the pole piece. We are talking about the 4 cooling vents on the magnet itself. I already explained it.

We also know about the pole piece.

I didn't know about the pole piece. I read the sticky but didn't realize they plugged the whole thing up, that's why i asked.

I know, they went from the 3 slug to the big one slug.

It is the work of Scott.

Look familiar?

Yep thats exactly what i was thinking.

I beleive he designed the XXX also.

He did, not that version though

Dude.. This is an awesome setup.. You must be really rocking the neighborhood..

that makes me just aggravated i wish mine looked like that

Don't you start any fights because your sub doesn't have magnets like that

Wrong. They are glued together, no cooling there. XXX has small gaps, but the BTL does not.

Less shipping damage with 4 segments. When you actually build your own subs, you can buy them in segments and assemble them in house before magnetizing. . .

edit - that is less shipping damage of raw magnets, not fully assembled BTL's

them things r huge next to the 15"
