    ***** SPL 12 Pre-Order *****

    I miss the carbon fiber dust caps. None the less, cool woofers. I wonder how and what they compare to in Fi line up.

    Texas Heatwave

    I'm going, just as a lurker though. I am interested in seeing some Fi products in action though. I'll be the tall mexican wearing a white tee-shirt with the blue and red chevron strips, that reads Chingon. If you see me stop me and say hi. I don't have any prizes to give, but if anyone is interested I can give out a swift kick in the a$$. HA HA!

    Box for 15" Avas

    I was hoping on using box requirements for each application to help me decide on which direction to go with these subs. Thanks. Well, for your car, I'd go as big as you can go with at least 1/3 SD for port area, tuning it to about 30. Even tuning higher up if you can't fit a very long port isn't going to be that bad as the Avalanches have a naturally heavy low end, and the high end is weaker. Might even it out a bit. Interesting, I've never heard of using a minimum of 1/3 SD for port area. What would be the maximum of SD to use for port area? Also, what would be the formula to figure out port length if I went this route? Thanks for the advise.

    Box for 15" Avas

    I've got a pair of 15" Avalanche subs. I want to build a box, but I don't know what size it needs to be. I'm undecided on whether I'll be using them in my home or my car. My car needs a little work, that's why I'm undecided. Anyways to the good stuff. I want to go ported for either application. For the car I'm guessing a tuning frequency of 32 to 35Hz. For the house I'm thinking 28Hz. I'm open to suggestions. For power I've got two TMA 1000.1 in the car. Oh, by the way the ride is an 86 Mustang GT hatchback, the rear seat isn't used so it's folded down flat. The subs would be wired to 1 ohm each, one sub per amp. In the house I've got a Behringer EP2500. The subs would be wired 4 ohms each, one sub per channel. Thanks!

    I picked that frequency because I have a pair of Tang Band eights tuned to that frequency and they do pretty good. If I can tune lower with the Ava, then I'd go with it. At home I'd use it more for movies than music.

    Box for 15" Avas

    How much space do you have to work with in your car? The floor of the hatch area measures 36" wide and 30" from the rear of the car to the rear seat backs when the rear seats are up. If the rear seat is down then the length is about 52" from the rear of the car to the back of the front seat. The height goes like this, starting from the rear of the vehicle, the first 14" of length the box can be up to 11" in height. There after the box can go up to 14" in height. If I'm doing my math right, accounting for 3/4" MDF no bracing no nothing, from the numbers I listed @ the 52" length the box would be about 11-3/4 ft^3 at the 30" length the box would be 6-1/4 ft^3.

    ava

    I've got a pair of Atlas 15's IB in a 95 Olds Cutlass Cierra. I'm putting about 300 watts to both of them. They sound really good, output isn't too impressive though. A high end 12 with a thousand watts is louder. From what I hear, subs + box = high output, sub in IB = a more natural bass, less output.

    Who would do a 20"?

    I say go for it, I'd be down for a pair. I think the chiminey would make a perfect sono tube. Ha HA! Just don't let the Mrs. know I said that. Ha Ha!

    Fi at Texas Heat Wave shows

    The weekend of the 17th in June there's a show in Houston called Texas Showdown 2007. Is anyone know if its any good. I saw a flyer for it at the San Antonio Heatwave. It looks pretty promising from the flier. Any idea if it is any good, I'm thinking about going.

    Sweet, send me a PM. I hope to one day build such a stout system. So far I have nothing spectacular, but I'm getting there.

    Fi at Texas Heat Wave shows

    Universal City, just north of San Antonio. I don't compete I just lurk around and see whats out there. I've never heard any Fi products, I'm interested though. Maybe I'll see you there, I'm actually going to both shows.

    Avalanche 12, 15, and 18 T/S specifications.

    What would be the T/S parameters if I wired the coils in parallel to create a 1ohm, or how can I figure that out? I've got a 15" Ava that I want to run at 1ohm in my car. Thanks

    Que Onda (Howdy)

    Hello everybody, just checking in. I'm looking to get familar with Fi Audio products, and maybe even get some of their subs. I'm also really interested to see what's going to happen with the whole Ascendant Audio deal. Anyways I've probably gone too far for this area, cant wait to start posting. Great meeting you all.
