General Fi

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

Hey so i jsut bought a dvc 2ohm 15q. Now i was wondering if the gauge of wire i run inside the box to the sub matters? I have some 8 guage wire layign around but the spring terminals on the subwoofer itself will not hold 2x 8 guage wires which would be necissary to wire the sub to .7ohm. ..... http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/learning...mpedance=DVC2x2 If anyone knows if i can use liek 12 guage or like 16 guage for this let me know, or if you have any ideas of how i can get two 8 guage wires into the spring terminal.

my customer have 2 FI BL 15 on a 2.8 cubes each box tune @ 41hz using 2 4inch round port. each enclosure. we did a 148.4db on TL.the car was a toyota rav4. sub up port rear position. any idea how to gain it's db? i'll post pictures later.

How much for you(Fi) to recone my blown 05 15" D2 XXX into an 18" D2 XXX? Also make it handle a bit more powa? Please include a shipping price back to 31093. Thanks. Edit.... first post and I've been a member since June. I'm such a newbie. Wewt.

I bought 2 fi bl 12s on feb 20 and still still never receive them. Just was wondering how long suppose to take? By the way i live in hawaii if that make any difference.

I already have a set of cdt cl61A's and tw24's amped with a RF 4002 with a 4 gauge kit from kk installed, and am going to get my SSD shortly. I need to know what kit to go with for the next install. Do you think I'd be fine with 4 gauge or do I need to go with a 2 or 1/0 kit? Thanks

Hi guys, I want to share with you my future setup and wanted to know if the stock electrical will be able to handle it: I am brand new at this car audio business I crescendo 3500D at 2 ohm -- 1900 W continuous power 1 FI BTL N2 12 running at 2 ohm 1 4 channel JBL 100 W rms each channel 4 jbl 6.5 1 Pioneer 9400 Box tuned to 32 Hz (got the cut sheets from BTL forums) I will be doing the Big 3 I have a 2004 Accord with stock alternator approx. 100 Amps and yellow top optima Thanks guys

Right now i have my 18 bl in a ~6 ft^3 box (before port and sub disp.), tuned to 34 hz with a 3.75 x 20.5 in port (was supposed to be 4 inches, but i had a lil cutting error ). Anyways, i'd like to try a few different boxes, some higher, some lower, some smaller, some bigger. Fi has 30 hz as the lowest recomendation, and i'd like to see what the people who tuned to around this (or people who have heard a bl tuned to this) thought about it. They also have 37 hz as they're highest, so have any of you tuned to that, if so, how'd you like it? I realize a person who tunes to 30 hz is going a different path than someone tuning 37 hz, but i'd just like to see how each individu…

I'm looking for an amp for 2 15 inch q dual 2 ohm. My spending limit is about $300-400

Scott, I ordered a recone kit over a week ago for a local customer of mine to recone his 03 xxx motor. Im sure your just super busy but wanted to see if you happen to get a chance to build it or ship it out. Paypal address was [email protected] . Just figured this would be the best way to get in contact with you. Thanks Corey

First the system: Right now I plan on doing 2 12's ported or 2 10's ported, Q's of course. 2k watts total. I will be running lots of mids and highs for "look" purposes as I am hoping to compete in shows, so I imagine around 1k watts, depending on stuff. I have a 160 amp alt and the stock battery is a 730 ampere battery. I already plan on doing big 3. I will probably throw in an extra battery as well. Will I need a bigger alt or will a 160 amp alt work? I know it brings a lot of other factors in. My amps are more than likely gonna be RF amps cause I can get a little deal on them. Any other suggestions or ideas to ensure I have adequate power would be great.…

of sound deadening do you think it will take me to do the whole trunk and spare tire well of my 06 cadillac cts?

hi i want to buy an 18" btl but i dont live in usa. does fi ship outside of usa? is paypal accepted?

I have a tahoe and i was curious just to see what your opinions on my set up would be? I 'm looking to do 2 18'' ssd's, epicenter, my question is should i go with 2 old school punch 800's or a memphis mojo 2500? i'm looking to do 150-155 db

I paid for my RE XXX to be reconed and then the 47 dollar return shipping fee for the XXX, and my UPS tracking number says it will get to your place tommorow. But I was emailed a UPS shipping notification from you guys yesterday saying you shipped me something. I am assuming you shipped me the recone kit accidentally. I emailed you guys a copy of this email with my full name as well. Please let me know what is going on, thanks!

has anyone ever done a horn shaped port, where its wide at the baffle then gets narrower towards the back of the enclosure.....just curious if anyone has done this in a wall....

Some of you might've seen my scores before. I have 2 12 BTLs in a 4.2 cube box tuned to 33 hz. I'm running the AQ 3500.1. My burp score is currently at 142.7 (2 batts) at 38 hz in my 02 Camry. The score seems alright for a trunk car, especially at that frequency. Well I clamped my amp, car was on this time with 3 batts. My rise is from 1.0 ohms to 4.5 ohms and I only clamped a little over 1,000 watts out of my amp. So for my 142.7 run, it's probably a safe guess to say it was only around 800-900 watts. In conclusion, I'm more satisfied with my score now seeing on how little power I'm using. Sucks that my rise is so bad.. But.. GO BTLs!

Didn't know if this belonged on the tech page, so here goes. Just recently looked at the SSD 10 and 12". Looks to me they have the same power handling. Anyways Im currenty torn between the two of them. I know I would get 1 with a copper coil but thats it. I would like some more input on both, so I could get a better idea on which version would give me the results I want. Amp I have is an older Memphis 500D. Matt I'm also looking at the SoundSplinter rl-i10 if it matters any.

i just want to let the people at FI and all you bass heads know that this forum is awesome. the people here are a lot nicer so far and i get quick and knowledgable answers to my questions( and there will be more) and most of all i havent seen any of the petty bickering and put downs that i see on another popular excursion forum. i am glad i found this place. see now ive gone and gotten all emo on ya.

As of late I have no time for the forum right now between my research job and school and tons of other things going on I simply no longer have time for this. Many other things are needing my attention and the forum has to take a back burner for me for a while. I'll be around periodically, but don't expect a quick reply to anything from me...I am not picking posts to go through or holding bias to anybody by replying to a thread here and there, i'll have a minute here and there and reply to and that's going to be the extent of it. Sorry if you feel that it is not fair... The best bet is to email me and I can help through there more efficiently, other then that pretty much e…
