|
Gold Member Username: Trey4sportsPost Number: 1120 Registered: Sep-06 | dont think so. everyone from RD is saying the New alpha is so efficient it will take out a fully loaded BTL.... dont know if thats true or not though... |
|
Silver Member Username: ShowridesHartford, CT USA Post Number: 588 Registered: Feb-06 | I wouldn't say an alpha would TAKE OUT a fully loaded BTL. Nobody could say that, simply because it is SO install dependent. But the new alphas do get extremely loud, and they have very good sound quality as well. So you can't go wrong there. |
|
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleHamilton, Indiana United states Post Number: 7303 Registered: Feb-06 | ^^^^and this is the new Alpha |
|
Gold Member Username: Trey4sportsPost Number: 1122 Registered: Sep-06 | logan, how did that alpha do compared to a BL ?? |
|
Gold Member Username: Freezeman_7Lindsay, Oklahoma U.S.A Post Number: 1067 Registered: May-06 | i like new... |
|
Gold Member Username: Bump05CashMoney, 15 Hd3 USA Post Number: 1092 Registered: Aug-06 | yeah, EVERYONE is saying that.. its just been tested by a guy on caraudio.com same box and all his other drivers and the btl killed it it came .3 under the si mag there prob great drivers and heard have great sq but the btl will smash that sub, only rd sub ill take my hat off too over the btl is the super heavyweight that thing is insane http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=232916 |
|
Gold Member Username: JblanfordPost Number: 1023 Registered: Oct-06 | that was the old alpha |
|
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleHamilton, Indiana United states Post Number: 7304 Registered: Feb-06 | Same box? What sub was the box built for??? Its very install dependant. With the Alpha in a box that is built for it, it will shine like no other. The Alpha Tears the BL a new as$hole. |
|
Gold Member Username: Trey4sportsPost Number: 1123 Registered: Sep-06 | yeah i thought u had diff box's for em? ohh well i was just meaning in a general perspective is the Alpha or the BL a better driver? but your last sentence covers that pretty well |
|
Gold Member Username: Trey4sportsPost Number: 1124 Registered: Sep-06 | that was the old alpha tested. the new one is revamped quite a bit |
|
Silver Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 711 Registered: Mar-06 | To set things clear, it was not said it would take a fully loaded BTL. I'm sorry, but the Super Heavyweight with 4 inch coil would DESTROY the BTL. Fi makes great products for sure, but one line I don't like and does not impress me is the BTL. But thats my opinion. Kevin |

Gold Member Username: Bump05CashMoney, 15 Hd3 USA Post Number: 1103 Registered: Aug-06 | " im sorry. but the super heavyweight with the 4 inch coil would DESTROY the BTL." i said that already i wasnt comparing them, im just saying imho the btl will get louder but the alpa i heard gets loud and has super sq. btw if the btl doesnt impress you alot of subs prob dont. everyone has different tastes some like sq some like spl or sql , but all 3 of those are different sq could sound different from me to you, its all preferences both great drivers |

|
Silver Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 714 Registered: Mar-06 | Ya, I know it. The only thing that worries me on the BTL is the tinsel lead slapping problem. The "fix" for it was a piece of cloth on the spyder from what I heard. I know a couple guys who are having that problem too, and they know what they are doing as well. Kevin |

New member Username: DevildriverPost Number: 2 Registered: Jun-06 | Dear Kevin, Does your big mouth ever stop flapping? Your lack of professionalism is ridiculous. You have neither practical nor theoretical knowledge of any sort. Not sure if you think that you are earning sales by slandering other companies, but most of the internet is laughing at you right now. At least Ben was headed in the right direction by not making outlandish and negative comments about another company's product. Honestly, change your practices before it's too late. |

Silver Member Username: Gh0st_31FL USA Post Number: 467 Registered: May-06 | id take the btl. It just seems to me that RD has been pushed a bit too hard into the mainstream underground scene IMO |

Silver Member Username: Cashby12 Fi Q Post Number: 332 Registered: Oct-06 | how much are those new 12" alphas anyway?? ppl are talkin good about them..im curious? and how much RMS can they handle?? |
|
Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sHit you in the chest m... Post Number: 2332 Registered: Feb-06 | Well if you look at that review it sayd 2 things... 1 the alpha is A LOT more efficient than the BTL. the alpha was burped with 1800 watts compared to the BTl being burped with over 6,400. That being said, in the review the alpah was said to get hot and mechanically limited with said 1800 watts, and it's rated at 2000. It kinda makes you wonder. Anyways, after my babbling, I would take the BTL just because of price, and since the sub was Logan's it was probably abused in many different ways, haha. |

Silver Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 715 Registered: Mar-06 | hxc audio, my mouth doesn't flap while typing. Next, what did I say that was un-true? Slandering is a false statement FYI. Before you try to attack someone, know what you are talking about. I am not 'bashing' another product. I was speaking the problem with the product. You might as well go back to the forum you came from. Our older Alphas in the proper box would take 2000 daily, but I do agree they should have been rated at 1500 rms for the "safe" factor. The test was not against a fully loaded BTL. Kevin |

Gold Member Username: Th3pwn3rPost Number:... Post Number: 2542 Registered: Jul-06 | Fully loaded BTL/SPL sub against an SQL sub?Umm...I'm not sure why you're comparing them anyhow... |
|
Gold Member Username: Freezeman_7Lindsay, Oklahoma U.S.A Post Number: 1069 Registered: May-06 | so do u think the alpha will handle the 2500wrms daily |
|
Gold Member Username: Freezeman_7Lindsay, Oklahoma U.S.A Post Number: 1071 Registered: May-06 | ? bump damnit |
|
Silver Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 719 Registered: Mar-06 | The new Alpha, yes. When the new one was tested, at 3000 rms for an hour she started to get warm. They will still be rated at 2000 rms though. Rob, ONLY reason they compared the BTL and Alpha is because they had a BTL laying around and wanted to see how close they were, just for fun. Surprised us though. Kevin |
