Newbie Sign IN

i fell off for a while... but things are looking better.. so guess what........ IM BACK> WWHOOOPPP!!!!!!!!

What's up guys? Love the site and all the good info. I just put a small setup in my truck, now I fell back into the vicious cylce of it never being loud enough. So, now I'm thinkin of doing a wall, lol. Will keep you posted on what I decide or possibly a build thread.

Whats going on guys? Tito here just wanting to say whats up . I came across the forum by looking up estimated delivery time for the Fi SP4 i ordered a few days ago. I own an 85 mazda rx7 and a 2004 cadillac deville. The 85 rx7 has a simple setup with 2 kicker l5 12s in a prefab ported box, using a jl slash 500 to power them. The 04 deville has 2 sundown X8 in a 4th order bandpads enclosure, powered by a hifonics zues amp, soon to be replaced with 1 Fi SP4 18" in a custom 6.5 cu enclosure tuned to 31hz. I look foward to chatting with u all and learning some new ideas.

Hello All!!! I`m super excited to be part of this great forum. I`m looking forward to learn about car audio and such. I would love if some if you guys give me some recommendations on what kind of set-up to get. I have the factory setup on my 2005 Acura TSX I was looking to upgrade such system if possible at all. I was thinking of adding an amplifier and maybe a subwoofer to start. I currently have a $700 budget that can be used towards upgrading the audio on my car. Thanks for your help.

I'm a noobie on car audio, but people around my area love me for what I do. If you're from Houston, hit me up! I'd love to hear your system, or let you hear mine! Mine is pretty basic at the moment, I'm fixing to sell my whole system and get a single 15" or 18". Anyways, hi everyone!

Yup, new to this website... I'm Jamerican Went to UF and now at UAB for Supergrad as I like to call it. I have been around for a while but never made an intro. I have met many of the FI team a few times (greetings you guys!) I love teeth & gums & implants Had two sets of the same rims, so I've had one set recently painted black and red Shoutout to my friends Shawn and Chris! Adrian

Hi all! Thanks for having me! My name is Brandon and I drive a '94 F-150 I've always been into car audio but its always been major brands like Kicker and Alpine. I finally decided to get some SA-8s. I got a good deal on a new set on V1s. I have 2 Sa-8 V1s. The box I am using is a Ground Shaker SPQ28 http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_62689_Ground-Shaker-SQP-2-8.html. My amplifier is a Hifonics HFI1500 @ 2 ohm. They are brand new and have about 3-5 hours of play time on them. On some songs there is what sounds like a mechanical sound. Like its slapping inside of itself. Also the dust cap gets a pretty warm. I want to eventually rewire them down to 1 ohm but i want to ma…

im new here, i was a member on roe but quit b/c i just dont like roe anymore with the new site and stuff. just wanted to introduce myself and say whats up.

Im running a FI BTL 12 on an AQ2200d. I was going down the road the sub hit 3 times and static came in then it stopped all together & Started smoking. Now its not doing anything at all. not playing or putting out anysound? what do i do? will a recone fix this?

I just decided to get back into car audio about 2 months ago I've been out of it a long . The last time I did anything serious mb quart precision power and audio control and Orion were the top brands needless to say things have changed a lot. I have been reading thru the post on the forum trying to catch back up but there are a lot more brands now . If I ask a stupid question let me apologize in advance but sundown and fi and all these other brands ssa sells weren't even around back then .

Hello all from Oregon. Been in car audio for years, and have just now pulled my head out, and damn, there is a whole other world out here. Funniest thing is, over my past year of planning, and doing research for my build, I end up here via one link or another, so instead of more time wasted, I figured I'd join, and see where it goes.

Hey all. New guy to the forum but not to stereos. I fell in love with bass when I was 12 and built my first system in my sisters car at 14. Built multiple stereos for multiple reasons and now I'm at it again soon starting my astro build. The final outcome plan is still in the air as we all know when starting these rhings they usually go on with more and more being added. Fell in love with ascendant audio a few years back when I met a guy who had 6 15 inch havocs in a truck. Well I contacted him about ordering some 18 inch havocs (4) and ill be ordering one thing at a time for the slow build considering I'm a family guy with kids and that comes first but as I get work don…

Hi im new on this forum. I recently purchased a FI X12 and while looking for information I stumbled accross this website. I am pretty new to car audio. Mostly because im 17 and have had my license for a little over a year. I started out with a lanzar max 12 and a pyramid classic amp off of amazon which cost me around $100. i made my own box. i installed everything into my truck my self. I replaced all the door speakers with kicker ds6.5s and the head unit is a clarion cx501. from there i upgraded my amplifier to a powerbass 400.2. I'v made probably 4 different boxes and im now making a new box for my X12 that should arrive on wednesday. tell me what you think.

Just checking in, new to the forum. Ive been into car audio every since i heard a wall with 12 10inch JBL's, in a 1973 impala with primer paint job, and 13inch Dayton wheels, 10 years ago lol. I do have quite a bit of knowledge of car audio/video design and whatnot. I mainly knew about mainstream, "household" name brand companies, up until a couple years ago. I lurked around a couple other sites, and i found them not really helpful ( too much bashing others and off the topic talk ). This is the best one i ran into plus it has manufacture boards which i find very helpful

Hey everyone I am new to the forum. I have a few questions that I am hoping some of you will be able to help me out with. I am currently running two power coustik mofo 10's on 1000 rms. I am looking to upgrade. I am trying to decide between the Fi ssd and DD's 2500 series. I am leaning towards a single 12. I was contemplating between a single 12 and a single 15 but the ssd 15 calls for 3.5-4 cubes for a slotted enclosure. I don't think it will fit in my trunk. I am pretty confident that the overall dimensions would fit however it is initially getting it into my car that has me worried. Another thing that has me worried is that I have tried contacting Fi two different time…

Hi folks, new poster but old owner of a q12 sub. I love the driver but I can't use it right now because my bonehead buddy tore the surround with his finger lifting the sub up one day. There's a 1" horizontal tear in the surround now and I'd like to know if I can repair it or if I have to send it in for a recone. Also, it's an older dual stack motor, is there a way to figure out the options on it without tearing it apart? Thanx for any help.

well I dont know why I cant read the threads....so figured maybe I have to post here first anyways I've been a member on roe, ca.com, ****, and diy for a few years now lookin to start my new build or recone my bad hdc3...but plannin on gettin 4 budget 12's to throw on my crossfire vr4000d for the summer
