this is exactly why i went with a N2 over a N3... straight from the Fi site...
Daily or SPL: Simply put, if you plan on listening to any type of music you MUST choose the daily option. If it is strictly for a competion/tone only scenario then choose the SPL option. The reason we have these options is the gap tolerances between the two are different. The gap in the SPL woofer is much tighter and FAR less forgiving in comparison to the Daily option. The Daily option simply gives the coil more wiggle room inside of the gap to deal with the non-linearity tendencies that you can get into when you are using a sub in a daily driving scenario. Typically SPL applications deal with 1 note and it does not change, therefore we can make the gap much tighter and get all of the motor strength that we can out of it.
"The BTL-N3 series is designed with SPL applications in mind" im assuming since you cant choose daily or SPL on the N3 that IT IS a SPL sub... and not daily.... https://ssl.perfora.net/www.ficaraudio.com/sess/utn;jsessionid=154dc6dd6064ef4/shopdata/0070_Tech/0070_Speakers/0010_Tech.BTL/product_overview.shopscript
