    So ive done a lot of searching around here at the forums looking for a good daily sub. I finally stumbled across FI's BL series and tried to do some research but just couldnt find the information that i was looking for. So i was looking into buying a BL15 with the pole chanfer and cooling options. So heres my questions. What would be a good size box and tuning frequency for higher output? Amp? And most importantly its output capabilities with spl oriented setup. everything will be going into a 93 Lincoln Town Car. any info would be greatly appreciated.

    Ok quick comparison. I need to buy an alternator very soon and here's probably the best ones i've found so far. http://powerbastards.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Fitzall%2D220 I think this is a ledgit site and product, input? I think this one needs to be custom mounted which will a pain in the balls and will cost a good amount to do. or there's this one that after looking at my current alternator looks to be one that will fit without fabrication... http://www.maniacelectricmotors.com/hiampalrefor.html Any one with a maxima also? Between the two which should I go with? I am going to be running a SAZ-2000D in a '03 Nissan Maxima 3.5L...ummm 15" BTL...no other electrical up…

    I am not trying to ask "when can I expect my package, it has been 2 months", simply asking if everything is being built on time. If I can expect what the website says, then I will be patient and wait. If anyone knows if the factory is behind with the holidays coming up or anything, please let me know. Thanks.

    So I have been sittin here planning out my next system almost to a T, when the thought pops in my head, maybe I should find out the competition rules and types of competitions there are before I do any major planning. Does anyone have any ideas or sites I can hit up to find out the various competitions and rules regarding these comps? My last plan was a F150 with shell on the bed. I was gonna do a wall with 4 18" BTLs, allowing the box to take up some room in the bed. I was probably gonna port front as well, but have some templates and planning to do first. Is there even a competition for such vehicle or do i need to go back to the drawing board. 4 18" BTL's not sure …

  10. i guess ill go with the single 15" btl in a 5cft ported box instead of an 18" in a 6.5cft box i wish i had the air space for 1 18 btl but one of the members on this forum said by having 1 15 in its correct encloser v.s having a 18" in a 6.5 encloser which is recommend to have 5-8 cft per sub the 15 would be better to get the most bass. i hope everything work out right just seeing what you guys think.

    hey fi, i ordered a sub from you guys back in april (19th) it got lost in the mail. then you guys asked me to confirm my address to send out the 2nd and no reply since then. is it sent out? just let me know what's going on. i don't care anymore, im tired of waiting, i'll pay extra for faster shipping if that's what it takes. i'm going down to the states(jersey) the last week of july maybe you have some kind of dealer where i can pick it up. i know your not responsible for shipping... but we have to figure something out here. i paid you 400+$ almost 3 months ago and still no sub(bl 15). all i see is thank you's from people all over the forum for receiving multiple subs in …

If anyone wants to convert it for me i can send the entire file to you..its a crap quality vid anyway... the good thing is that at least 50 more people, and their friends when they get home, now know who a little underground company called Fi Car Audio is It was pretty wild out there

    I'm putting my first system in the backseat of my 2004 Ford F150. What I would like to do is put 2 BL12's back there and run them off of either a Kicker ZX2500.1 or 2 ZX1000.1's, but I have several questions. I want to wire them to 2ohms to get the full potential out of my amps, so will I need to get the subs with dual 1 or dual 2 ohm voice coils? As far as a box goes, I plan on getting a custom slot ported box made. I ran my measurements through a program and it came back with these specs: Net Airspace- 2.5 cu. ft. per sub Port Volume- 1.586 cu. ft. Port Area- 80.39 sq. in. Tuning- 32 Hz Will these specs satisfy these subs? Also as far electrical goes, I plan on doing th…

    Hello, I have a PT cruiser and I am looking at the Q12s or Q15s (4 of each) I have the back seats removed and have about 17.875 cuft to work with, the box would be: WIDTH is 39 in. HEIGHT is 24 in. DEPTH is 33 in. Would there be enough room in that box for (4) Q15s sealed? Maybe able to add 2 more inches to the Depth! I will running about 1500 watts rms to each subwoofer, will the Q12s or 15s without the power opt. handle that much power in a sealed box? thanks.....Brian
