I'm going to order a SSD10 and plan to load it in a sealed box w/ .63 airspace (after displacement) and power it w/ a Sundown SAE-1000D (are there other recommended amps for the SSD10?) Questions: 1. I'm guessing I should get the dual 1-ohm coils and wire them in series to get 2-ohms (600w) ... since dual 2-ohm coils wired in series would result in 4-ohms (only 300w) and dual 2-ohm coils wired in parallel would overpower the speaker (1-ohm, 1000w), correct?!? 2. Since this is going to be a daily driving setup and I'm more interested in SQ, should I consider any other options besides the copper coil upgrade? Mucho thanks for any help / insight.

Im hookinh up my BL that I got back in 2008, what Sundown amp do you guy recommend? SAZ-1000d SAZ-1200d SAZ-1500d or SAZ-2000d? thanks

I order a Q 12 from fi on the 17th of April. It been over 33 business day since I ordered my sub. Then FedEx sent me a shipment email saying that it would arrive on the 24th of April. I knew that was not correct. So I wait until June 12 before I emailed agin. No reply till last Thursday. When I got the email the said it said sub was being shipped and that FedEx would be sending me a tracking number? So I email them Friday asking about my tracking number and still no reply. I just want to know where my sub is.

Thanks guys. You were nothing but helpful through the whole thing. Everything came in. Packaging was awesome. I can't wait to put it together. I look forward to hearing my 15" FiRE SExxx

I was wondering the full weight of the 18 BTL with all of the options added?

Hi tech guys, I sent an email to shawn almost a month ago asking for information and I have not yet received any response. I saw the post in the stickies so I did not send it to the order line I sent it to the non sales related email. I did send an email last week to the sales email address and still have not heard anything about that one either. I have heard the customer service from Fi is top notch and I know you are all really busy, but I am not feeling the love Anyway I hope to hear for somebody Thanks

EDIT: I just read about the shipping information thread thats pinned. Sorry for the waste of thread space :/ Thread closed.

the topic pretty much says it all... i have 2 XXX motors and i'm converting them from 15" XXX to 18" Fi/XXX hybrids. i e-mailed sales@fi about a week ago and haven't heard anything back yet. is there any other e-mail address or phone number i can use to place an order? thanks!

Was just wondering what are the warranties on Fi Subs?? All models?

I have 4 t3 audio tss 15's (last year model).wanting them rebuilt to 18's. I can do it myself just need baskets and soft parts. If you guys at fi could help me out i would be greatful. oh also need them before nopi thanks

Still paying off the past unsucessful attempt to get a decent substage in my truck. I am going to try the following: 2x 12" Fi Q DVC 1-Ohm AQ 2200d Amplifier(2200w@1-Ohm) ...in this box. Roughly about 1.6ft^3 in each chamber after subwoofer displacement. Sealed. Total Volume = 3.52ft^3. Housing two 12" Fi Q DVC 1 - .16ft^3 Subwoofer Displacement. Whatcha guys think? Its going behind the seat.

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…

Going over yet another system design...6 x 15's in a wall.....have a couple ideas....thanks to Shawn Flemming...that could work pretty well :-) just trying to get some opinions on both 1 - subs facing forward (would be staggered to fit the height requirement) with the port in the middle 2 - subs firing towards each other, staggered with the port in the middle - basically a ported clamshell there would be 3 subs on each side

I'm a competitor in MECA at my state finals I managed to reach 154.4 at the headrest using two 15 in btls and using 2 American bass 500.1s. I can only give high praises to the newer style BTLs It took a little tweeking to get them there but with any new setup it takes work to get it loud. After about 75 burps I have on the subs with about 7500 watts to the pair these subs are still like new no signs of wear

hello everyone just wondering if someone can help me and send me to the right spot i am looking for a oscope..can someone send me in the right direction thanks alot...

Hi, I ordered an 18 Q yesterday and I just wanted to check that the payment went through. Thanks! Brendan

I know you guys are going to SBN, but when you get a chance can you check your emails. I have another "order" to place with you for the custom IB subs I am working on. Also, is there an easy way to get ahold of Chad K. (I've tried the phone recently - to no avail)? Thanks and have a great time in the sun & sand. JP

i just found the IB series from Fi today. i was looking around and found a site called bladeice.com. they carry AA and Fi subs. i checked out the IB series and wondered why the Fi site didn't have them. was this just news to me?

hey guys, im currently running a 10" MTX 8500 series sub with a JL Audio 500/1 amp, in a Pro Box. Its already pretty loud, but i dont think the sub would last that much longer, i was listening to a couple songs on the the way home from work and when i was a block or two away from my house i smelled something funny, went home and popped my trunk and the smell was coming from the sub, the cone was pretty warm from only 10mins of music and i had the volume at 14 on my alpine headunit. The sub is rated 500watts rms, and thats what the amp put out or a little more, but i didnt know it could heat up that much. Im looking to sticking to a 10" sub if possible since the box wasnt …

anybody know some good software i can use to make enclosure plans?

Scott/Nick i sent you guys an email the other day about reconing my 18's and how the new tinsels are? and whats up with the Fi appearal? Thanks John

which amp will push a BL 12" sub? a sundown 1000D or sundown 1500?

Hello everyone, ok Im planning on ordering 4 Q15s for my pt cruiser, it will be a single sealed box with 2 subs facing up and 2 subs facing foward, how does this setup sound? Will it effect sound quality or overall output, also there be 2 seperate chambers with 2 subs in each chamber, or should I go for 1 chamber for each sub? thanks..........Brian

Haha joining the club of topics about emails I know you guys are busy..but I sent you guys an email about a change I'd like on my sub before it gets made. I need a dual 2 not a dual 1. Just piping in just in case it got overlooked...subject was included when I sent it. Invoise number I-12521/00. Like I said I know you guys are really busy so I'm trying to not be a pain in the balls...Thanks again.

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.
