I'm looking to buy 2 18's. I have posted on here before about them, but I have not had a chance to buy the subs yet. I have a 04 tahoe z71, and i'm looking to just bang out hard. I have done research on both subs, but still come up confused. I need to know if the BL's will be louder than the Q's and if so, how much louder? Is it really that noticeable going from a Q to a BL? The BL Xmax is only 18mm as opposed to the Q's being 27mm. To me i think the Q's would be louder, lower, and more bang. This is why I turn to the public, please help, im driving myself crazy.
the Q will be louder on lower notes when the BL will be louder on notes that are higher. depending on ur car the Q could be all around louder or the other way but really to ur ear those lows always sound louder and move more air, unless ur going to comps i would get the Q
