Well ill chime in and say the X are wonderful. I have an X 10" with 180 watts in a ported box and wow is all i can say. It is so musical yet plays plenty loud for me. Im still trying to figure out how to put it in my honda civic.

Just make sure you get it sealed up really good if you do that.

Well i have no experience with new RE stuff. I would assume its decent but who knows I personally bought a Fi X 10" and have 180 watts and it slams harder than my 2 RE re 8's off 400 watts. I love this Fi sub i would go look at there lines and see what kinda options they have for that money. I think SQ is great and spl is all i need at this point and its only a 10". My box is 1.14ft^3 tuned to 32hz just as reccomended.

Okl first of all a bandpass box is terrible for daily. You should get yourself a custom made ported or sealed box. Next your subs are rated at 300watts rms each so you want between 500-600 watts rms for the pair. Buy a solid amp and get a real box and you will see what these subs are all about. You should also find out if you have dual voice coil subs or single voice coil subs so we know what ohm load you can run. Do some research on your speakers or just ship them to me.

Well .8 isnt optimal but shouldnt cause too much issue. With a larger sealed enclosure the rms wattage of a sub typically goes down. I would put it in there and see how it sounds. Just watch your gains and you should be fine. Probably wont be as tight of bass as a smaller sealed enclosure but thats why i would try it out.

Just run them active its not that hard. You have two amps so why not?

its a single voice coil you cant wire it any different than 1 ohm. If it dual voice coil that is different so what kind of coil config do you have>?

Well ill try it without one once i get my sub and box and see how things go.

So those pg comes seem a good price I've been searching used to no avail. I only need one set as well. I know its a tight budget but spent too much on sub and HU and box. So I'm already over what wanted to spend.

Anyone ever used? http://cgi.ebay.com/Pair-Orion-XTR-522-5-25-Coaxial-Speakers-NIB-/350307314102?pt=Car_Speakers&hash=item518ff169b6 They seem a bargain til I get more monies. Then move them to rear fill.

I need a pair of inexpensive 5.25 for my doors of my explorer. I am gonna have about 60watts per channel. I dont wanna spend over $70 tbh im pretty broke right. The bostons I bought used were blown so I need some door speakers now. What would you recommend? I dont like harsh tweet want more natural sounding. I have had good luck with boston, old school orion, cdt, and image dynamics.

box is tuned at 32hz so why block 30hz thats not much lower than port freq? Is that a big deal?

So my 4 channel doesnt have a SSF built in so am I gonna need with a Fi X tuned to 32hz factory reccomended box. Ive never not had one and found http://cgi.ebay.com/SUB-SONIC-FILTER-Harrison-Labs-PFMOD-SUB-tm-NEW-/190367536675?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c52ca1623 which i could buy and turn to 20 or 25.

Or sell the old ones and buy 4 new ones or perhaps 2 SSD or Q?

That thing is sick!! Wow cant wait to my new X 10". Very sweet I dig it.

Damn cant wait to get my new sub new X 10". Thanks for review of this ive been looking for one.

So i have looked at the ported box design at the top of the page for an X 10". My question is how will this sub perform sealed in about .75ft^3? I know ill get more output out of the ported box and a little tighter bass from sealed. Is that 32hz tuning ideal for the X 10" I would assume since the fine folks at Fi posted that diagram and they know their speaker better than anyone. Once again im powering it off the back two channels of a JL J2 320.4 so around ~180 watts. Vehicle is a 1998 explorer so space isnt the issue at work here.

Welp its ordered anyway so lets see how it comes out.

nice
I know I know. I will have to save up for a good amp but that is in the future.

I ordered a new one had to have 4ohm load and old ones were 4ohm DVC.

Well just payed for an ordered a FI x 10" I plan to run it sealed off the back two channels of my amp. It set me back a bit more than i wanted but everything i hear about this woofer is really good.

So i only have like ~180 watts from the back two channels on my amp it is a JL J2 320.4. Im on a budget like mad here unfortunately and that amp was $99 not seeing anything else for that kinda money recently. So i snatched it up. I am running the front two channels on boston acoustic rallye series 5.25 co-ax, the back two channels will be bridged to a subwoofer that amp will do 60x4 at 4ohm 80x4 at 2 ohm. Ive read they are a tad bit underated so 160-180 watts is all i can expect. If i buy and X will that be enough amp sealed? I dont really think i wanna get a ported box right now. Ive not had bass for 3 years+ so im kinda starting out very slow but quality cause i may never upgrade again.

I have had intense bass and stupid loud stuff before a 148 not termlab back in 2000 mustang with 2 re se 10's and a kx 1400.1 wow that was too much. I dont want anything even have that big now.

Sealed Fi X 10" power needs
in Fi Technical

I'm getting away from a ported box with my X 10" and going small sealed like .6ft^3. So what kind of power would get it rocking pretty good. I'm thinking around 300 but currently have 160 on it and love it. I want more sq and not so loud as ported. I love the sub and don't want a different one just different sound.
