    Giving a shoutout from Mission, BC in Canader. I'm here to learn all I can about car audio, as well as home audio, and hopefully, down the road, be able to pass that knowledge on to other people.

    My Skar vvx 10 came in Thursday. I installed it in a 1.25 ported box tuned to 30 hz. It sounds great. Much better than the e5.19 I had. It couldn't handle the JL Audio 500 I use. The Skar lets me bring the amp up to the point that it puts out its max power before clipping. I was running it a quarter turn less to keep from blowing the e5.10 I'll break it in & see how it sounds.

    just sayin whats up to everyone. im starting my first actual build, nothing special but its gonna be better than last time. a couple years ago i had an eclipse amp ( i think like 300 watts?) and two 12" kicker free airs, ported in a 03 tiburon. it got loud but never hit low... i could get like the first 2 notes in "put on" by jeezy and kanye but nothin after that lol, im sure the amp wasnt fit for it at all but it totaled 50 for the amp and kickers in the prefab box and like 60 for the wiring. it got the job done for the price i guess, it was ok. but i sold the tib, have the kickers in my garage but i just dont even want them. havent got around to attempting a sale to any…

  11. Ive been out of car audio for awhile, probably the last 5 years. My Adire Audio Brahmas surrounding ripped away from the cone last night. The last sub I remember hearing about being compared with the Brahma was the RE XXX so I was interested in finding one of those to try out. Come to find out they arent around the $400 range anymore, but a whopping $1,200!! So I said bump that. But a guy on a different site told me about the founder of RE starting up a new company named Fi Car Audio. So here I am, trying to figure out which of these products may be equal to or better than the Brahma and XXX. Oh and trying to find a place to recone my Brahma as well. Any suggestions on …

    My name is Daniel and I'm new to car audio (the real car audio). I became interested in FI audio last night after doing a little research, and I have decided that my 1st car audio system is going to include 2x Q15s. (I was thinking about getting 2x 15" MTX Thunder 9500s, till I heard of a certain brand that makes custom made, strong, reliable subs for cheap prices) I have lots of questions and it looks like most -or all- of you on the forum know what you're talking about (cause I don't =S)

    Hi from West Palm Beach, FL. I'm new to SSA forums. I was this site at Steve Meade Designs while I was reading up on Fi Car Audio in his forums. I haven't had a system in a while and I'm starting to get that itch to build one so I've been doing a lot of reading. My how things have changed. I have already asked some questions and I have received some very good feedback from the users here. I have lots to learn and this seems like the perfect place for me to do that. I have a 97 Maxima SE that I'm sizing up for a SQ install. We'll see how it goes !!! Thanks for the help already !!!

    I have been searching for a forum now for quite a while that can help me with my many questions. This seems like the place to be out of all of the other choices. I have had a few trial and error runs with audio systems in the past and now it is time to become a little more serious. Thanks in advance for all of the help I hope to receive!

    In reference to a previous post about 2 Fi BTL18's. My max outer demension are 42 wide x 36 tall x 26 deep. This would be a wall enclosure in the back of a mini-suv. I want to mount the 2 18's on the 42x36 wall. I figured that the box would have enough ft3 but will the 42x36 be enough wood area to mount the 2 subs and have room for a port. The subs would have to mount side by side on the 42 and the port would go above them. I'm afraid that the holes are going to be so big that there won't be any wood left for support

    Anybody know the t/s specs for the sx recone from fi audio? I just got an sx 18 with a fi recone that has the int. leads and the extra spider with the 1.4 ohm coils and I wanted to recone my sx 18 with the same set up so I can have matching woofers but I wanted to know if the 1.4 ohm coils will work with my motor so I can go ahead and order a recone but I can't get a response from anyone at fi. So help would be greatly appreciated... Thank You
