hi nick, my team here is eagerly waiting for the subs, pl inform where and how to contact you and transfer monies to book. manish.

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 …

I was wondering i ndmstang65 or someone else from there could tell me if im getting the new or old models i ordered mine on april 1st?

Alright so i have been thinking of buying an 10" FI Q sub and i am quite positive that its what i want. But the only downside is that i have no idea about the size of the amp that would be a good size for this, and also the right gauge wire.. my cousin is going to help me with installation, but first i would like some suggestions for wiring and amps. So if someone could help me out that would be great.. thanks

I have a 1994 jeep grand cherokee and i am having a bit of trouble right now i have 1 Q15 pushin 1500w at 1 ohm and im wanting to throw in another 15 but i dont have the cubic feet i need cause of my spare tire and im not allowed to take it out cause of my parents and i cant find a rack or anything for it should i go with the 2 Q15s or go with 2 BL12's on 1500 watts a piece? Please help and my dimensions are 19h 28d 35w with my spare tire in Price is no factor right now Casey

Its looking like a bunch of SSD's or the Ascendant equivalent for the new bass race system, with the amps I will have each sub will be getting about 400-500 watts each (most likely 12 x 15's sealed)....i know thats below the rms rating for the ssd's but the idea is that I'll be able to demo and bang on the system a lot longer, plus i like having a 3in coil woofer. Just wondering if anyone has ever used SSD's with this kind of power? Results?

so my fi bl 18 is on the way along with my 2400watt amp,,,my cars alt only puts out 105 amps so ill be needing a 2nd battery...i dont wanna do the big 3 tom uch money so how can i hook up a battery??? -can i put the 2nd battery in my trunk??? -if so am i supposed to hook it up to the alt or do i just once in awhile recharge it??? -wtf?

is that site fake? everyone says they dont have one and its fake

its been reviewed and its been a "god" in sq.its the w6 ...no doubt its a fantastic woofer..but how does the Q compare..this would be a nice reference .

In my search for some subs I've been pointed to this forum. I'm looking to replace a set of 12'' Type-R's. The Type-R's were a decent SPL sub but I'm looking more for SQ. I'm hoping to achieve the SQ and SPL same as, or close to a W7. I listen to 50/50 rap/rock. As of now my plan is...... 2 12" Q Series 2ohm Box & Amp: 2 Alpine MRD-M1005's (each 1000x1 at 2ohm) Sealed rectangular Box 1.3 cuft per sub 1999 4 door Tahoe. behind the second row, subs facing downwards Also... I have no idea what the BP does. Whats recommended RMS with that option. Thanks for the help Alex

i didnt know that Fi and Ascendant Audio were even related comapnies... what are the differences in the drivers you designed for each company and why both?? also which came first? i find it very interesting that i just now found this out, when ever since i got big into car audio, Fi has been my favorite company by far.

Yayyy...I cant wait to get. Any Idea on how long it would take to get it!? I am just so excited! Order I-10871/00 dated 11/09/2007

Well first off I'd like to thank FI for their amazing service up to this point (only been a customer for a few weeks and haven't used your product yet but amazing at answering customer questions and FAST!). I have asked a few times on her about updates of the BTL backorder but what I as a customer would like to see is a thread posted with daily or even weekly updates of different backorder or any other subwoofer issues. Maybe this is a dumb suggestion and you don't have time please don't bash me just wanted to through some input out there for you guys. Would love to know an update as of 8/10. THANKS and can't wait for my music machines

I like loud and yes the 4 Q15's Sealed in LOUD!!!!, but I think I may change up so I don't have such a huge box in the back. When I was running only 2 Q15's ported in my magnum, my boy was running the single 18" BTL ported in his Impala and we were hitting identical #'s. He was pushing the BTL with a Power Acoustic 2000 and I was pushing the 2 Q's with a US Amps MD2. We both metered 152.7 legal on an AC mic. Once I stepped up to a 4 pack of Q15's and an IA 40.1 @.5ohms, I got about a 5 db increase and alot of air movement, which makes for nice hair videos..... I guess what I am wondering is....with an 18" BTL in 8cubes ported properly and tuned to 32hz and the sam…

hey everyone. I currently have a 1 15" BL, but im getting a new car in a bit, so im looking at getting 2 12" ssd. I had a debate between SSD or the HDC. I know a big!! difference but im running them off a aq1200d that i have now so i figured i wont be upgrading power in a while. And if i got a aq2200d do you think i would be safe with the 2 12" ssds still ? Im guessing the ssd would move more than hdc with only 600 rms on each? Do you think the 2 12" ssd will be louder than the 15 BL because of cone area? thnx guys, sorry if they are stupid questions lol

I finally was able to order the 10" Q I wanted. It's been about a year and a half since I've had any kind of a decent system so I am very happy. It will be going in a 91 MR2 turbo which is a 2 seater so I had to go with a small sealed box. With how small the cabin is it will still get loud regardless and from what I hear about the Q it will sound damn good too. I've already got the rest of my system installed so all I'll have to do when the Q comes is drop it right in. Here are some pics Alpine head unit: http://www.carpron.com/multisite/d/119467-1/threegauge3.jpg Directed amp powering some CDT comps and a Hifonics amp rated at 1500rmw for the Q. I still need to get som…

Hey guys, I am getting 2 Fi Q 12"s and need to build a box for them. I want to get the most output out of the subs as I can with still having decent sound quality. Ive never built a ported sub box before and would really appreciate some help as I cant seem to find any for 2 12" subs. Thanks, Luke

hey fi, i ordered a sub (bl 15) april 19th and still hav'nt received it. something's gotta be up with the shipping company, i've ordered stuff from china that only took 3 weeks. let me know what's up when you find out. thx -phil

I havent even received the speaker yet. and i have realized i dont want any subs anymore. a friend told me fi dont take returns. so i guess if anyone wants to buy it let me know. thanks. its a 12" fi ssd bp flatwind d1.

lookin at buying a new vehicle and im wondering what the best vehicle would be for 2 18" BTL's ?? iwas thinkin Grand cherokee but i dont think theres enough room, what vehicles do you suggest i check out?

I love to hear stories about driving daily with your Fi subs and something peculiar happening.... So i thought I'd be fun to create a thread where we can share a funny story about our daily driving experience.... I am a big fan of steve meade (how can you not idolize a guy that can pour that kind of money into his systems) So i put in my two new amps and battery (1K each sub and now no voltage dropping).. My cousin who has been with me since day one of car audio was there for the initial install of the Fi subs (with 500 wats each no battery and voltage loss down to 11.8 +/-).... So myself and my 11 year old son installed the new amps and battery.... took it for a whirl ad…

So I was on my way to work this morning and saw a dude in a lancer with some fi stickers and a sundown sticker. Might you be on SSA?! Otherwise I live in Keller Tx, home of everyone with an alpine type r, or wants an alpine type r. lol... Speaking of... Just recently had a owner of two 12" type r's ride in my mazda 6 (3.5 cubed box @ 33hz 15" fi ssd running 1k rms). He pretty much was "not impressed" bahahhaa. He said mine was crystal clear, but not very loud. The only thing I have going against me is my sub is pointing straight up at a panel, until I can get a box that fits. I did not plan my build properly at the time B-). Anywho, random post, but was just curious!

ordered two fi btl 18 fully loaded on the 6th of febuary 2010 .... lead time then was at 3 to 10 days.... its now the 11th now lead time says all btls wont be shipped till march 2nd and the cooling option will be free... i have already paid and pay pal been accepted ..... wondering if my subs were in the first batch of shipping..... or the march 2nd batch.... i fully understand that you guys build subs upon reciving order so i know it takes time just wondering if i can expect mine this month or next month...tried emailing scott no replies maybe on here i can get some answers thanks

I'm currently in the market for some new subs. As of right now I am running 4 Kicker L7 10's Power is from 2 Kicker KX1200.1's strapped making around 2.8k Box is 6ft^3 sealed. Ideally what I would like to do is drop down to a pair of 12's or an awsome single 15" I'm looking for a great LSQ driver, I want to be able to pound out the bass, but still be able to enjoy the sublties of the music. A friend of mine suggested looking into Fi, so here I am. Current drivers I am looking at RE MX12, DD3512, DD9515 etc. Vehicle - 2003 Nissan Sentra SE-R SpecV I am doing consistant 143-144dB I'l like to get closer to the 150dB range What do you guys suggest I do? I was thinking the Fi.…

Hello forum. I have an FI Q sub which i have received on 7/15/2011. I finally got it professionally installed on 7/26/2011 by my local audio shop a few days after receiving my Audioque AQ1200 amp. It was playing fine until after about 5 hours of play time. The only extra option it has is the cooling package. I hear a weird rattling noise comming from the sub itself. I thought at first maybe it was my car rattling, or the box, but then i took the sub out and played it in free air for a few seconds and came to the conclusion that it was the sub. it sounds almost as if your hitting the dust cap with ur knuckles or the license plate is vibrating. other than that, the …
