General Fi

what's up with the email system? sometimes i'll be going back and forth with scott, and suddenly i stop getting replies. I emailed June 1st, June 9th, June 11th, 14th. Still got nothing. It's happened a couple times already..

Where can I get some?

I have a 12" BTL with all the bells and whistles, and I decided to get a dual 1 ohm and not a dual 2 ohm sub. My question is: can I wire the dual 1 to to go with an amp that does one ohm. Or am I left with getting an amp that does two ohms(if so what will be a good amp for the BTL at 2 ohms)

would an ssd with only coppercoil be happy with 500rms or should i give it more. planning on getting 2 but dont want to have to upgrade electrical system.

I currently have two Kicker L7 10's vented running off of a KX 1200.1 in an Extended cab 2000 Silverado. I am loking to upgrade to something a little louder, so I recently did a cut through into the bed and am looking at putting a BL 18" back there. My question is would this one 18" be louder than my current setup? I plan on porting the box and running it off of the same amp. If anybody has a similar setup to the one I am looking at, if you have gotten it metered and could post the numbers that would be great. Thanks.

hey i have a 15" BL and im in the market for a good amp.. i was looking at the Hifonics amps. are the alright?? they put out alot and they on the cheaper side..or should i just go big and get a good alpine or kicker i was looking at the Hifonics BXi2006D it puts out 1300wrms at 1 channel is that good enough heres the link i found it http://store.realmofexcursion.com/ if someone could help that would be great any suggestions or anything like that =Thanks

Well, I went to a dbdrag today and competed in Bassrace. It was so damn hot outside! It was closing in on 120 degrees! Noone was metering... Just about everyone was down 2.5-3.5dbs. I was such a dumbass I played my subs when I got there and ended up having to go meter with drained batteries and my subs were pretty warm after demoing for like 30 minutes. My score sucked balls, only a 151.5 in bassrace. Oh well, it will be better when the conditions are better, and it might help a LITTLE when I know where my car peaks, and Im not playing some random song. Should also be louder when I play with my amps. My gains arent even 1/8 of the way up, the SSF is set to about 40-45hz (…

i was bumpin on down the road and all of the sudden my sub cut out... perplexed, i went to the back to make sure all necessary wires connected ... as they were and drove home, pulled the sub out of my box and one of the tinsel leads was fried.........i have a 12" Q powered by a eD nINE running at 2 ohms and a comfortable 950 watts ....so i dont believe that this was an error on my part i have done all my big 3 running 4 gauge wire everything ....how and how much is it going to take to fix this asap......my sub should still be under warranty seeing how i bought it only about 7 months ago......please help i cant live without beats

What it says, I've heard the FS drops fro 37hz. I need to know what the new parameters become. i have 2 fullyloaded BLs, 12" Need to know by tommorow please.

So heres the thing. I got my Q 12' about 3 days ago and my amp just came in today. So i screwed with the gain and the hz and put the db all the way up. So im pounding really hard on the volume of 4 and my amp (Kicker Zx 1000.1) go's to 11.. I dont want to give my sub to much power on the first day. So im rollin the streets of downtown hot springs and my (thinks hes hard) friends like "dude you got your system" and im like "yea broseph its tight" and hes like "its def not as loud as mine but it looks cool, i like the fi symbol" so im like yea ok cool..(he has 2 memphis Mojo 15's powered by a lanzar)..lol..(lanzar) so anywho he turns it up (cranks it up) and hes like yeaaaa…

Im pretty sure ive got a blown Avalanche. It slightly vibrates when powered, starts to smell, and makes a screaching sound at time. Anyways how much is it to reconed, its a 12? How much if i get a larger basket and get it reconed to a 15 or 18?

just want to share with all .i did a 163.4 with 4 btl 18's with no testing of this setup or finding my freq.16 poweracoustik a3000db amp and some 5 year old batts(24).i'm very happy with the subs,took the 6ooo watts with a breeze.all i can say best sub for the money and great cust.services too.thanks scott and shawn.u too nick.it was a while back when u helped me with some things.

i was wondering if you have had a chance to look at my 10 q sent in for lead wires

Planning on ordering my btl this weekend..should i add everything to it for daily..or just cooling? with 2500 watts could i tell the difference in a loaded and not loaded btl?

I emailed Scott a couple time about some recones that I need but havent gotten a resopnse yet. Is there a problem with the email server?

I just registered over here, and Ive seen some of you on other forums that will know my setup, but Im sure alot of you dont. I got 4 18" BTLs, 8 Sundown SAZ-1500Ds, 10 Kinetik HC2400s, and a 300amp alt. The enclosure specs is 6.5ft, 35hz, 100sq in of port. Sorry, this video is real crappy. Its kinda hard to make a good video when I have like 20 seconds left on the camera and the battery is going to die.

being that the BTL is more spl oriented<<--- or does it matter if a sub is spl oriented? how does it handle the lows?

my girlfriend recently*well like 2 months ago lol* scuffed her rim on a curb, now i don't see any bend in the rim or what not but there is visual marks on the rim for sure. Now for the past i'd say 2-3weeks she has been leaking air, the curb job wouldnt cause that would it? The rim would have to be bent for it to cause the tire to leak correcT?

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

my amp has been really hot every time ive played my system..Ive had it for 2 days now. Is there a reason why this is happening, its hurts to touch if you keep your hand on it for more then 3 or 4 seconds. Only on the outsides. The amp is a zx1000 kicker. My sub is also get hot along with the amp, but not as fast and not near as hot. Is this normal..This is one of my first systems

hmmm on my way home i saw this focus hatchback with a huge FI AUDIO sticker on the entire rear windshield. its a 2dr hatchback, white with blue graphics and blue rims, + lambo doors. i know he used to have like 4 15" power acoustics and everyone said it sounded terrible..... now hes running FI im guessing, wonder what he has....? is he possibly sponsored by Fi??? palm coast FL btw.

Just curious why I am being jump all over for the situation. No where did I talk down about FI. I did make a neg comment about the forum after I was attacked, for which I will apologize for. SSaudio and denim, I am sorry for saying that I would not tell others about the forum. Also thank you two for putting the time, effort ,and money into this forum that you do and have for years. Again sorry. I have no idea where godsmack got that I was e thug but whatever. I guess some people forget I am a customer. and was asking Scott a question, but got some helpfull replys and some slandering me. Scott please get ahold of me

hi Guys, I havent posted here in a while, but i am in need of some guidance. I just ordered 3 hifonics BX1606d's or whatever the numbers are.... Now i have to order some subs, I can't decide between Q's and BL's. I have no idea what all the options are for on the bl's and if someone could explain all of them that would be awesome. I was planning on putting 1 of the hifonics on each, and i also need some advice on box size, tuning etc. SQ is not really a concern of mine, and i have made all the electrical upgrades to the car so everything will work with the power. The Truck is a 2001 GMC Sierra EXT cab, similar to the red one with the 4 15" SSD's in it. My other quest…

Should I get Dual 1 or Dual 2?

OK, as many of you know the forum crashed during an update and we lost the past 6 months worth of posts and info. This forum is such a valuable tool for customers, new and old, to post questions, reviews, and use as a database to search from. So... I want things built back up and fast. I am hammering out all the details of what this little contest will be and how exactly all the free stuff will be handed out... shirts/stickers. But it looks like it will boil down to this: 1. For those with Fi products: A. Start a detailed topic with description of your system using Fi subs... pics (are a must even if they are off a bad camera phone), enclosure design, amps(s) use…
