Mmmmmm!!!! Ribs Look good. Or as we say it here in Hawaii "ONO!!!!!" Happy birthday man!!!!

those 2 guys scare me . My son didn't like it...lol.

just happened to look at my white sticker on the BTL. The white lays better than the blue chrome i have. No burred edges or peeling at corners or slice marks all over it like my blue chrome. A nit picker would point it out and be dissatisfied. But like I mentioned in another post somewhere, when the speaker is moving that large amount of air... you can't see $41+ and its plain awesome. So for future purchases, i'm sticking with plain white. Side by side though Nick.... my silkscreened SSD looks pretty awesome. But you're right.. to save for cost and to pass that savings to us the stickers shall do. In fact the white sticker does seem to be brighter than the silkscreen.

Stickers falling off not a problem to me. But it'll look tacky. I preferred the silk screened ones a few years back. My friends all thought i put FI stickers on generics and didn't believe me until I pulled them out of the box...lol. Just sayin. On a side note... my blue chrome has bubbles in them. Hope it doesn't peel off anytime soon. Would look weird with one white F and a blue chrome I..haha.

Hmmm did someone say Neo SSD's? Mmmm.... I think i'll take 2...lol.

Pretty expensive. For a comparison my 15" BTL at 70lbs (entire package) was $103. My 15" Q at 50lbs was around $80. Its somewhere in between. Expensive... but worth every penny..lol.

Even though you have your heart set on sealed.. truly consider ported. It will get louder. The impact is sweet and crisp. Just louder with a ported set up. Tune low and you'll be happy. Your quest for loudness will eventually lead to a ported enclosure in the future. I have it fully loaded just without the extra spider. I have no complaints whatsoever.

As for me, I'd rather own a Kia and "a sleeper" and kill that ferrari on the Highway. Thats why I own an FI..lol. Spanking those dish style Re XXX

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. My Q and BTL move to much to even pay attention to anyways. And if you stare... you might go into convulsions..lol. And like Duran said... AA Havocs may be the good choice for you.

I love my Q. Tuned low in a small ported box. I recently just let it go and upped the volume. Sugar from Lo rida hits so hard I love it. Although the BL may get louder, the Q handles the low extremely well. No regrets whatsoever.

I'm running 300 to my 12" X. It is perfect. Does what it needs to do... sounds good.

I just looked at my box in transit. USPS still faster. I got my stuff last week in 4 days to Hawaii via USPS. UPS has had my box for 3 days and its still in the same state it was shipped from. WTF?

The website states what it states. The Black friday subs are the older versions with what looks like double stacks. Newer versions are single slug like the ssd's and Q's. Variations lead to power differences. Running higher power like everyone says is ok just turn down the gain and not go crazy. It should last. The subs we ordered are the older d4's. Newer versions are single vc... with just a tad bit lower power level. If i'm not mistaken.. the newer versions has the option to add BP which bumps the power level up slightly. In the end... they are close to being equal in wattage.

Nice. The Q is awesome isn't it? Similar set up as mine with mine tuned at a lower frequency. My next box is gonna be tuned just like yours.

I was debating to get 2 but ended up getting 1 instead. Shipping is gonna kill me. And I'm in the market for an N1 anyway so this is just a temporary fix. Happy Thanksgiving to the entire FI staff. Much Mahalo from the Hawaii crew.

I'm in for 2 12" X's. Just let us know Nick...I got the money ready.

God needed another soldier to help him out up there. And yes... he shall be watching out for his daddy and knows you love him very much. Keep him in your heart always.. and he shall be there forever.

Sweet... Nick.. any info on N1 prices?

finally a real Fi facebook page. I think the last one I added as a friend was just someone who had an FI.

Shipping is pretty fair.

I am in dire need of a 12". The N2's look mighty tempting. I'll wait for results on playtime before I commit. Will the Gen 2's be discounted or just phased out?

Nick knows a little about FI ...lol. Q's. Sealed.

Looking good. Glad you got the white Sticker. My chrome blue is almost invisible against the black dustcap. But the white is awesome. Wait till you try and carry the Btl's. Those things are beasts. I almost got a hernia just looking at it. Can't wait till you post a vid of that baby bumping. It sounds so good. My GF said that the Q sounded awesome. Not boomy but clean and accurate. You will not be disappointed. Congratz.

OMG!!! Passing on the BL now. I already have and had the SSd, Q, BTL... Now i'm gonna buy the 15" gen 3 N2 just for the hell of it. Let us know Scott. You can count me in already.

M5... How old are you? Your responses are futile attempts to sound intelligent. You are very good at making others feel like idiots is not working. We are all here to help while you and your high post counts are just to "attempt" to make you look good. Not working. To the op.. get what you want. Listen to those who HAVE the subs themselves and used them in real world applications with lots of play time. I haven't heard the SMD but would I tell you to buy 2 of them? This is not a flame response or any other statement. We are all here to help each other with problems or questions. I have first hand experiences with the SSD, BTL, and Q (soon to be BL also)... i've heard a BL though... and love every single one of them. I share my knowledge with you and others. I wouldn't have posted if I thought I had nothing good to contribute. Share your knowledge not rebut everyone's claims. This is not a pissing match as to who is smarter but to who can assist in the one who is in need of assistance. Please let us know your decision. I highly doubt you would be unhappy with any one of them.
