Posted August 1, 200916 yr ok so i am looking to get either 2 15" BLs or 2 15" Qs. i am powering them with a Rockford Fosgate 20001bd amp, which i was told throws out about 2800 watts of power when i called Rockford. i am also building a custom box outta 3/4" MDF that i'm not completely sure about dimensions for yet. now i am leaning towards the BL because even though both the BL and the Q have the same power handling, the BL i am told can take more punch, which would compensate for the 800 extra watts from the RF amp. but everyone says that the Q is all about sound quality. is the BL going to have good SQ along with it's SPL? if i can hear that the BL will have good sound quality or better, than i'm going for them. if i hear, though, that the BL doesn't have good sound quality and is just strictly an SPL sub, then i will go with the Q and go with the bp power to compensate for the 800 watts.
August 2, 200916 yr i have a BTL and it has excellent sound quality IMO i've never owned a BL but i'm sure it's sound quality is right on pointi'd go with the BL's but if you want to save some money then go with the Q's.. they'll both be able to handle and extra 400 watts each easily

August 4, 200916 yr You are NOT a Q buyer. DON''T even think about it. NEVER, EVER use the term SQ in a thread again as you have NO idea its meaning. Buy the BL's and enjoy as by your definition they are more of an SQ woofer than the Q...although your definition is wrong it is indeed what you want.
