how much would a pair of 18" PA-2000s cost and how much power could they take??

right now i have a 15" TC Sounds LMS-5400. when i bought it i was looking for very clean and loud bass. the LMS-5400 is without a doubt the nicest sounding subwoofer i have ever heard, but now i want to go even louder. i don't really care if the subwoofer sounds increadibly clean and undistorted because i'm just looking for more output. I was looking at either the 18" TC Sounds TC5200 or the 18" FI BTL. What should i get?? any input would be appreciated!

personaly i havent had any trouble with TCs customer service. it might take them a while to respond to questions and orders but what other company would upgrade your order at no extra cost? they upgraded my 12" LMS-5400 to a 15" without the extra cost. they even told me that "if you dont like that subwoofer send it back and we will send you a different one". they have been excelent with costumer service towards me, and most other costumers. they are realy trying but they have been realy busy for a while.

i know i could have gotten something louder than the 5400 for $720 but when i got it i wanted very clean and undestorted bass. Thats why i didnt go with anything else. you think you have heard bass but when you listen to a 5400, even with only 500 watts, it sounds totally different to what you have heard from any other speaker, simply amazing. but now im just looking to go as loud as possible. i really like the idea of 2 18"s so i think that is the way i want to go. what 18"s would be really loud in a subaru legacy station wagon??

The 500watt amp was just a temporary home theater amp. I am still looking for an amp so i have the sub in the house. the reason that i am not sure if the 5400 will be loud enough is the review i read on TC's website said it could have had more output. another reason that i bought the 5400 was because i got it for only $720. i preordered a 12" version but they decided not to make the 12"s so the gave me a 15" instead at no extra cost.

the enclosure i have it in now is about 3cubic ft. sealed. i was told to build a box that was 4cubic ft. with 70sq in. of port. its powered by a 500 watt sony home amp. i was still in the market for a car amp before i decided that i wanted more output than sq. i have no doubt that my 5400 will be very loud, i just doubt that it will be loud enough. thats why i was looking at larger subs. i was looking at the 18" BTL. has anyone ever owned or used a 18" BTL here??
