General Fi

Hey Scott, I emailed you, but read that other recone thread about not supposed to email you other then shipping, so I thought I'd post here. (And sorry I didn't read that sticky earlier) Anyway, In previous emails, we discussed reconing a 12" Adire Brahma MKIII, and I have the sub packed and ready to go. I just need a quote on the cost of shipping the sub back to me when it's done. I live in Honolulu, HI 96819. Thanks.

Just stopping by to say hello its my first post over here and im making it because i have two packages coming to my door in 2 days Its two 12" SSDs cant wait to get them installed even though i think im underpowering them a bit (running em off of a zx1500.1) They should destroy my 2 12" CVR! even though im disappointed that my original shipping date got moved back from today to the 15th im still pleased with FI cause i know they make em well thats all the talking im doing for now till next time

Hey guys just wondering if anyone here has gotten 18 Q's to Ontario Canada ? how long did it take roughly? And how much do these suckers weigh with the Bp Power package ?

Hey guys, I have been super slammed with my career, the past month and I love it. Im finally in a career, someowhere I plan to stay til I retire. If anyone has sent me an email or PM, Im prettys sure I got them all taken care of(over 500 between emails and pm), but if I hadnt please resend, and I will take care of it pronto. Thanks and sorry about any delays, Shawn

Well, I ordered my BL 18" on Monday, 5 days later............yippee! Super fast order. Thanks to the whole gang at FI. BTW... Ive never seen a stiffer sub. gotta love it!

is it possible to get a recone for an old xxx 15 built? i know it was possible a few months ago but i know yall are busy to. and SORRY scott. i had sent you an e-mail before reading the sticky on NOT SENDING YOU E-MAILS other than shipping info.

yeah!!! poor postman a heavy box for this little man :bump: my new toy a full loaded BTL 15 . in the 3rd picture the tiny sub near the big boy is a 12w6v2 .... thanks Scott and all Fi team for your serious and speed!!! i have ordered it the 27/07 and i have received it yesterday 9/08.... i live in France...

This is my first box. I just wanted to know what everyone thought about it. It will be made of 3/4 MDF and its for a 15" FI Q. Its tuned to 29hz, and is about 4.5cuft. I have a crude drawing below. Just tell what you think. Thanks.

Just wondering if anyone has pics of the BTL with the triple stack magnet, any size, would prefer pics of the 18 though. Thanks. dan

I like to thank Scott and all the other guys at Fi for having absolutely amazing customer service, and having good quality products. oh ya.. and the pics --Thank you Fi, -James

Is it possible to recone an old school orion hcca?

Scott, How much would 8 Q18's modified for IB (home theater) use be? (shipped to 75409) You know, with the cult discount added in!

order 2 BL 18's recently. got them both and i got a FI card and 2 Fi stickers but no receipt. i was wondering if you guys ship your subs with a receipt or not? if not its cool, i am just used to getting one in paper form as well as email form. George

Do you think a Soundstream PCA2000D would give me enough power to push two 15" or 18" Qs? If so would I purchase dual 2 or 1 ohm subs? If I wanted to get the full power out of the amp I would have to go with the 1 ohms, but how would I wire them? This amp is only stable at 1 ohm right? Would a .5 ohm load put too much stress on the amp? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

First show with the BL18's finally playing in the wall, didnt do dbdrag, but managed a 148.3 for bass race....I was pretty happy considering we still havent done any testing on it Lots of work to do yet, the baffle (5 layers thick) was still flexing like a mofo, so we def. need some bracing. Still have to tune the wall as well, woofers getting a little warm and smelly :-) Love the subs, def seeing a 150+ bass race in the near future!! I'll try and post pics soon...

hi today i was playing deep bass for like 20 minutes and after i gave the sub a break i touched the fi cap and it was pretty warm is this ok?? if i had played it for a lil longer would the sub had blown up???or do i have to break in my sub???im running a rockford fosgate p8002 amp and its sopuse to put out like 950 rms only. I tought a fi could take more than that if i got all the options thanks.

im stoked about my design i got from Pete now the hard part is having it built...still tryna find someone to build it for me cuz i have no expierience with wood work nor do i have tools to cut the wood has anyone on here bought blueprints from Pete? if so how did you like it? well this is goin in a 07 ext cab tacoma

thanks to scott and FI.i just won the NSPL amature 1200 amp - 2400 amp current draw class and set the world record with a 163.1 dash and a 163.9 hardcore with bad batteries.FI rocks,great subs.voltage droped to 10.3volts when i burp from 16.7 volts so i'm happy with that.i know it will do a 165+ with these subs.4 -btl's 18's fully loaded and poweracoustik a3000db amps.again thanks scott and FI.

Hi my name is charlie , Mike Bartell suggested that i contact you guys. I am building a street max 1-2 truck , and am looking for the most efficent sub i can get as this class only allows a single battery . I'm interested in 2-15" subs that will take burps of 3000-4000 watts of clean power. Many companies have these 20,000 plus watt woofers and i fear that they will be too ineficent for my application. Thanks in advance for your time Charlie

Pulled a 145.4dB at 47hz in the kick...Now too bad in my opinion considering the box is 8ft^3 net tuned to 33hz...The subs are getting about 800 watts each.. They definitely had a lot more low end than every other daily driving system that I heard at the comp.. Many people were interested in my subs, and I gave out Fi's website several times! Imagine I could get a 147 or so if I got another box that was more SPL oriented..That may be in my future plans.

To Whom It May Concern (probably Scott), My name is Brad and I currently run a DIYMA 12" subwoofer in a .5ft^3 box. The DIYMA is an amazingly solid sub with HUGE stacked magnets, but its weak point is definitely its cone. Unfortunately, my cone cracked with less than 150 watts and gain set properly. So I am requesting a custom recone kit for my DIYMA. It has a 3" x 2" 4 layer voice coil. This sub is pretty beefy (37lbs) so shipping it would be a last resort. Can you create a new recone kit for this sub? All information on the sub can be found at www.diymobileaudio.com and I can personally talk to the designer of the sub if you need more information. Thank you. -Brad

I sent you an email but waiting for a response. dominick420123 at hotmail.com Let me know thanks.

I would like to get this sub reconed to 10" for SPL only. It is rated at 600 watts rms but I have burped it at over 5k no issues. Dual 2 woofer. What kinda options do I have as far as recone goes? Got some pics here:

just wanted to say thanks to scott and everyone at Fi. got my 18 BTLs in today cant wait to install them. thanks again guys!

hey all, i just can back from my first db drags bass race that was held in hayward, ca. i might say, i had a blast. my car install is still in the works. 18" BL walled. i met some cool guys there and they had no problem giving me tips. BIGGG ups to Christian with the 2 15" RE MT'S. 147.9 db. nice!
