That would depend, first and most foremost, what he determines as "blow". From the topic, I would assume he is claiming that his BTL is surely louder than a ZCON. Do you know what BTL he has? First Generation (triple stacked circular magnets), 2nd generation (big UFO shaped magnet), or which one of the newest BTL? Again, I don't have any first-hand experience with the ZCON. I owned a 2nd generation 18" BTL for a year. Obviously I can't say which is louder, but if I understand correctly, which i may not, the ZCON is a competitor with the musical variants of the BTL. Meaning: it would come down to installation details to determine which would be louder.

C'mon man. You've been here long enough to know that questions like this are never, ever going to stop. Unfortunately, I've never had any experiences with the ZCON line. But everybody I know that has purchased a ZCON hasn't been disappointed. I guess an appropriate question to ask would be what are you expecting from it? What experience have you had in car audio? The ZCON is an extremely capable subwoofer.

Do you mean potential loudness? Some of us get confused easy; so being clear always help! wtf kinda post is that?

What major city are you closest to? I might start helping you search if you don't mind

If you don't know much about a 4th order bandpass, don't attempt to build one. You'll waste your time. Take caution as many "professionals" that claim to know how to build a proper 4th order, don't. I would try to contact some serious competitors ASAP and see if they are willing to help you. People on this board like: Shizzzon (or how ever many damn Z's there are) Ram_Designs (for box designs. He seems to have a good reputation around here) As for woofers, I would suggest living on every place where you can buy used woofers. Forums. Ebay. Craiglist. Otherwise you will probably end up with less that optimal, or even decent, woofers for your goal

Found it. Spring Break Nationals. That's pretty damn soon.... best of luck.

Wow you weren't kidding when you said your lined up deal for the Wardens was killer. How much time do you have for SBN? I'm assuming the S is for sound and the N is for nationals? SPL competition I also assume. Why I'm asking: with your budget that low, you're best bet is used woofers if you want them to "take 3k each". I don't know of that many woofers you're going to be able to get new that will take that much power at that price. But if you don't have a lot of time to find used woofers that are worth it....... for that price range, and that goal, I would personally try to find two used 15" BTL's. The UFO magnet ones. You might be able to get them for that cheap....I doubt it though. $500 just isn't a whole lot. What score are you looking to get? You know how important installation and trial and error is right? You're going to need a lot, lot, lot of time playing around while chasing numbers.

I think you mean affected

I have a hard time with control on sleds. But I'm sure if I had the same amount of experience on a sled I would enjoy it. For now, i'll stick with two wheeled machines!

Wild guess here

My landlord is the biggest piece of crap
