Yup Yup!

This maybe just me but I dont think you know what you really want.If I were you I would take some time to fiqure it out.As I see it I would consider SSD or Q for your application.I highly doubt you'll be dissapointed with those.

For me nope,for you idk.You have to ask yourself,what kind of music will I most listen to.Do I need more than 1 sub to satisfy my bass needs?How much power is needed,how many amps, how much room am I willing to sacrifice?And budget,but more than likely you'll be satisfiyed w/1 for awhile till you get used to it.So I say start slow an see were you are with it, then ask yourself again after a month or so.Just my .02

This is my favorite video yet.Super sick Meade!

I have something for u bnib but Im looking for trades.

live in cali and planning on switching from jl 18w6 to Fi 18Q w/option.

Ineed a box for 1 18'' needs to be sealed.I can build one,but dont have the resources nor will my park let me.Stupid country club noise regulations.Shops only build 10s & 12s around here.Can someone help me please?

i would like to know this also i have a us acoustic usa series 2200 model still in origional box w/papers manual.i also had the 2300f but sold it to my brother.

Even though you're going to be running less than required air space,I think 6 18"s will amaze as long as the enclosure is built like a tank. I say go for it,seems like it will impress. I would love to hear it! But I'm biased for 18s.

yes,wire the dual 1 ohm sub in series and viola you're done!

what was the name of the "excursion" song? artist,title if u dont mind thanks.

first we need to know the dimentions your working with.

Obviously you didnt understand my post because I was agreeing w/acid burn. I was using variables for examples,I didnt say he was using ported or sealed or power to each etc etc, they were just offsets that affect the outcome.Basicly apples to apples 18 ftw over 2 12s.Now bring enclosures and power variations into it like tejcurrent said the install will decide the win.

other than enclosure design differences,the 18 still has cone area advantage.Its the same series of woofer so excursion etc. is equal.Full power into the 18 vs. half power into each 12 so the only offset to me would be 18 sealed vs. 12s ported for the 12s to win this!

Just a few questions,1st does this option mean you get 3 spiders instead of the usual 2? 2nd question,is this the same spider pack as the bl? 3rd question,is there still a pole port on the back of the magnet or does the plug fill this area? Pretty much what Im saying is do they look like the btl at the magnet?Maybe a pic will help alleviate this.

all depends on what u like.do whats been good to u in the past.or u can try something new if u have the resources to scrap an attempt or 2.obviously 2 18s will be loud sealed or ported.let me know.

from what I here 12-15 sq in of port per cf of air space is ideal.my calculations show 105 sq in port at 7 cubes @15 per cube ft,so 210 inches of port @14cubes for two.I dont know how it would sound until u try it.personaly I would go sealed with those,they seem to be a bottom octave sub.My .02

HORNETS NEST welcome to the forum bro! from florida spl to fi spl ha ha.

I was just curious about the specs on the lineup,specificly the Q.Maybe its just the picture but the Q18 looks like it has a small mag.Whats the weight of the whole sub?whats the mag weight in oz?Im sure its designed for that application but the BTL is the only sub that looks proportionate.Dont get me wrong everything Fi does I like.My eyes have a hard time with big sub little mag.Hope this makes sense to everybody!

It shouldnt be too long before somebody hits you up to be in there video.Like the Tony Yayo,So Seductive video with the mtx's in the trunk,but instead Steve Meade reppin Fi! I believe it will happen, mark my words.

I dont know if you noticed,but everytime I post I get lots of feedback from you nick!Thanks,Im not a newbe to this as some of you might think,Ive been in it since 92.I just post these topics to get feedback for myself and hey maybe others as well.I got you nick thanks,you always tell me what I need to hear great job! Ive gotten good posts from you since the:rubber vs foam or spider compliance to this mag post thanks man keep em coming. ;

what are the pros&cons of 1 spider vs 2,stiff , compliant etc? I noticed the Q's have two spiders,BL's have three,BTL's have four. Please explain,I want some details thanks!

so the 18''Q has only one spider?you specify it as having two in the paragraph.
