 Well the Fathom is eqed and probably has LOTS of development time so that everything is optimised to work as one unit... Taking two 18's an pro amp and a PA EQ isnt really the same thing 
Then again two 18 with 100L each sealed with LOT of grunt and EQ'ed should perform much better than a fathom (read MUCH better) simply due to the larger displacement
Note: There is a similar thread on AVS that compairs the fathom to DIY and it got nasty with the DIY vs JL fanboy crowd... lets not start this agin but i simply believe in HT displacement is king and for that reason a DIY sub with larger drivers should perform better if set up properly that a comercial sub ok  | Is it this thread? http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...3&page=6&pp=30
Lots of heat there, interesting.
btw, I am not trying to "challange" the JL, just something with a similar concept and sound quality.
