got my new FI BL15 today!.....with a little problem...

[mason_herold 2]

ok so today i just recieved my brand new FI BL 15! i was so excited to see the box from FI, unable to contain my excitement i opened it up instantly and what i found was some great packing! wood bottom and top and 2x4's and some nice foam but once that top board came off i found that the dustcap wasnt the color i ordered(not a big deal to me at all).... but the thing that worries me is.. is it actually my sub? or did they just mess up the dust cap color? i ordered ice blue and got red(once again no big deal) just worried its not the right one, i ordered a fully loaded BL and the invoice is correct i know that. just worried it might be the wrong sub...

i would give fi a shout and see if they gave you the wrong one.

Take pics. Also I think if you look at the former it's written in sharpie. First make sure it's a BL and make sure it's the right coil

not sure how to tell if its a bl? and i dont have a multimeter at this moment:/ ad do all of them come with black baskets?

[mason_herold 2]

the only way i can tell if its a bl is the shipping weight which was 54 pounds just like the FI website says it is

i wouldnt go by the shipping weight and what it says on their website, they can be off by quite a bit either way

You can tell by looking at the motor. If it's double stacked, then it's a bl. The q and ssd have single stack. The btl has a crazy lookin motor lol you would know if it was a btl.

My BL 15 basket is silver and so was my BL 12.

[mason_herold 2]

how recently did you get them though? and yes it is double stacked. im wondering if they dont have seperate basket colors for dual 1 ohm subs and dual 2 ohm subs?

Measure it with a dmm to know for sure what ohms they are. It's a bl for sure.

I just got the 15 about a month ago and it's a dual 2 ohm so your theory about a differ basket color could be plausible.

if it was a btl im not sure if i woulda said something or not;)

Basket color wouldn't be an indicator. I have 4 sp4's. 3 have silver baskets, 1 has a black basket. All came directly from Fi.

[mason_herold 2]

hmmm strange that they would do that

my q,s both came last week with black baskets. don't know if that helps. both dual 1 ohm
