Has anyone received there subs within the last 2 weeks n not receive a tracking number? And/or shows awaiting fulfilment still??

What does rescheduled to 3/7/2007 mean? Is that when I can expect it. UPS is showing my sub as rescheduled to 3/7/2007.

I have two 15" SSDs with copper coils... they've sat in their original packaging for a while now, never used. I don't have the space for 15s, and want to go with 12s... and I've decided on the Qs now. Any way to trade in and add money for them?

Right now i have a 15" FI Q with BP and im trying to sell it. A guy came up that was interested and before i was asking more but i really need the money quick so i said $200 for sub or $299 for sub and box. I made the box so cheap because it was custom made for my car. Anyways, to get to the point he only has 170 now and so he was thinking of trading and he has some 12" audiobahns and i dont want that and then he has a jensen vm9312. Currently i have an Alpine 9886 so my question to you guys is should i trade and get the headunit or is my alpine better and i should just wait for cash? Thanks, Alex

Can you say Pissed? damn sub fuckin sucks on lows.. i want to sell this crap asap and get another sp4 or btl..

Hey I emailed sales [at] FiCarAudio.com 10 days ago and then emailed Nick and Shawn a day later. I still haven't heard back from anyone. I'd like to order a Fi Q 10" no BP Option. I can't place the order via the webpage because I'm in Hawaii. I know shipping is going to be more, thats okay I'm ready to order now. Please get in touch with me. I emailed the request from dj.kickz [at] gmail.com

Hello, So there has seem to be some confusion lately about the N series, and I wanted to start a topic to clear things up for the normal users who may or may not know what to buy. So could anybody that either works at F.i, or anybody that has and tested any of their N series equipment, please explain their use and purpose clearly. For example, what is the difference between the BTL N1, and the BL for instance. Why so many different lines and different job specific equipment that may confuse the consumer or may be overwhelmed by so many options? As of right now, the website has 6 total different lineups, and if you include the BTL series, you have a …

i just recently bought a bl 12 dual 2ohm with cooling added, and was wondering what the actual rms handling is? i've seen plenty of videos and read plenty of posts making the 1000wrms handling very unbelievable. it seems to me they can handle MUCH more, even without the cooling option added.

hi ive been tryna to buy a sub and you guys were replying but than just stopped..my email is [email protected] im the guy who is tryn to buy from canada..i kno you guys are busy but im tryin to get this for xmas thanks

I have an 2001 Cadillac Deville. I have a Rockford Fosgate T4001bd and am looking for subs. I have been really looking at the Fi Btl's and the RE MT's but not exactly sure what size i can get do to box size would really like to 18 as im trying to be as loud as possible and have heard good things about the 18" fi subs but not sure if the box would have tto be too big after looking at some oof meades builds but maybe some of you who have installed some setups like this could help. So i figured i would come here for advice.

I have an older XXX that needs a recone. I sent an email a week or so ago to get paying details for a recone, but I haven't been able to get a hold of anyone. It's a 12 inch, and my zip is 33155. But I also have no idea how to ship it without it getting damaged, was wondering if I can just pay to have you ship a box + the wooden crate or however you guys pack it, since I have no idea how to pack this thing myself.

I have emailed Fi a couple of times and havent gotten a response, I know they are ususally pretty busy up there so I figure I'll see what everyone here knows about this.. I currently have the original style 18" BTL and want another one, my sub has P.Chamfer, hixmax coil, 3rd mag, dual 1, and daily option.. can I get another one to match this one so I can run 2 of the same subs? or are they completely out of production.. I am aware the new BTL is probably better than the one I currently have but, I cant afford to buy 2 new ones .. Thanks for any help.......

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!

Well I'm trying to place my order but, Hawaii isnt listed under the address section. Please help guys. thanks

I am getting my new FI Q 12" on Tuesday and want to have everything set up and ready to go when it comes so I can hook it up and go without fiddling with settings on amp or cd player. I need to tune my amp and will not take it to a shop to get charged for something I can do. My question is how to properly tune my amp without an oscilliscope, or hooking my sub up. I want to be able to somewhat tune it with the sub unhooked as I want to properly break the sub in and cannot do that by tuning my amp with the sub hooked up. Once I have the sub broke in, then I will fine tune my amp to the sub w/ it hooked up, but until then how will I have it tuned pretty close w/ hooking …

Hi i'm in the process of building my box for the 15" BTL, I wanna know how long the port will have to be to have a tuning of 32hz. My dimensions are 40 x 20 x 20 with double bracing 3/4" MDF. i did the math and with the double bracing, the internal volume is roughly 7.5 cubes. I wanna know how long the port will have to be at 4", 5" and 6" tall. Thx guys, Fi rocks

assuming the btls customs issues dont influence the soft parts for reconing, whats the average turn around time on send in sub recone on a btl? after being dropped off at ur facilities that is. thanks, will

Ladies/Gents, I can't keep up with private messages. I had them turned off a while back and then some how or another they got turned on again and we've magically got space for 500 private messages...that I don't want to have in the first place. Please just email me. Nick " at " ficaraudio.com Thanks!

Which would be louder in a 5.5 cu ported box running on around 3k watts?

I am thinking of buying a 95-01 4 DR Blazer or 95-01 Explorer 4 dr and I want to start off with two 15" BL's (dual 1 ohm) ported and for the amp either a Sundown SAZ-3000D or a Hifonics Colossus. I was reading and the BL's seem to be what I want...The Q's are the Sound Quality woofer and The BTL is the all out SPL BASS MONSTER,and the SSD being the entry level woofer the BL' claims to fill the gap between the Q and the BTL. What ratio of SPL/SQ would you say the 15" BL's fit.Right now I have two 12" Type R's and they sound alright to me and get loud but I want more bass and better.I want those head craking hits and those low nut jumping shakes.I listen to lots of Metal …

Buddy is torn between these setups. Obviously one requires 2k more power. Aside from that, everything else is pretty close. I think that the ssds wont be much louder for all the extra work - any other opinions?

i need two amps to power 4 15 btl loaded. i want them to be clean power, low voltage, stable at 1 ohm or lower, be able to get 2k-2.5k a piece. i will be entering in spl comps and need something that is going to stand out if ya know what i mean? i want mid 150's, this is going to be in a nissan p/u truck ext. cab that i am going to put a camper shell on and have it walled in! also what does everyone think about the z-1, i have concidered 2 of them because the are 12.5 volt required and the are strappable.

I am going to change up my system, and i am trying to decide between two FI BL 12"s or four Kicker L5 12"s. I listen to mostly hip hop and rap, with some rock. I currently have 2 15" L7s, being powered by a MA AUdio HK802SX amp. I am going to upgrade the amp.. but it kinda depends on what sub setup i go with. I have just over 6cuft of space to play with... So what do you think, 2 Bl12"s or 4 L5 12"s? What will give me a better sound for all types of music? Any amp recomendations?

I have a saz3500 and i was wondering will that be enough to power to get these bad boys moving?

can i have this two subs in my trunk?/ each one on its own box, and both boxes tuned at 35 hz i was told that two different subs have what its called wave cancellation and that they wont sound good even though they are both great subs, please help help.
