I have a new 15in Q that will be going into roughly 3.5cu after port and displacement. Would it be ok to use one 6in round port with flared ends? Looking for 28-29hz tuning. I can do 43.75sq in with a 3.5 x 12.5 slot port but the box will be much more difficult to build. Which would sound better? This will be a console style box, sub forward and port will fire into the side wall.

I love the fi sub line up, the only thing i don't like is the outdated dust cap. Hate to say it but the domed dust caps just look ugly. The visible glue, the rough cone material combined with the dome cap make the sub unrepresentable. Do you guys ever think you would come out with dish style dust caps that cover the whole cone? maybe in the blueprint line up? I plan on purchasing a ssd15 in the near future and just hoping you'll offer dish caps, or mybe i'll just wait for the blueprint subs and check them out.

looks like something wrong with it or something...

I've been trying to get in touch with Scott because myself and my partner Josh will be out in Vegas for CES and we would like to view your facility and talk about some possibilities with him. If at all possible could you please forward my info along to Scott, or PM me a better way to contact him I would greatly appreciate it Ryan Meleg 330-606-0474 Boulder Acoustics email [email protected] (our server is down so please use this personal address)

Sorry guys we simply haven't had time the past 3 weeks or so with the holidays and trying to get all of the orders filled and out the door. Definitely going to make time for this Wednesday night! ...come in shoot the breeze with us!

Have a friend looking for two 10" Xs, wanted to know if the old FI X subs are still available? I know they are online, just making sure before he orders them. Thanks!

was watching tv ton and seen this, just wondering if they were actually sponsored by FI? wife and husband team, she drives, he yells a lot and tells her where to drive lol

SOOO just got N2 last night figured I would share pics with you guys and side by side shots of the n2 and gen 2 btl, lmk how you guys like the blacked out look on the N2 N2 left, gen 2 right Then heres my family portrait (minus my ole double stacked Q which is in my car) THANKS GOES OUT TO FI FOR AMAZING WOOFERS

so i only ask this because i saw this and i have all ways been told to run both coils at all times. but they are saying using one of the two coils just means you can just run half the power to the sub and its no harm no foul. they also said that you can use the second coil with a potentiomoter for a variable QTS system. i would like your thoughts on this, and i thank you for taking time out of your day to answer me.

hello, i have a couple questions about my setup. first thing is i have a cd player, an alpine cda-105 its a 2v rca out. now my question is would the alpine power pack that give 4+ volts through the RCA make my sub louder or increase performance in any way?? also i would like to kno if i should upgrade my electrical and if so what would you guys recommend to bring all my products to there full potential.. hes my setup , nothing special cd player : alpine cda-105 speakers : alpine type S all around amp : Power acoustik 3000DB Sub : Fi audio BL 15 fully loaded in i believe 3.5 cub. with a 31hz tune roughly wire : all monster cable , 0g power/ground & RCA thats about…

I'm looking to buy some speakers but i'm a little stuck i'm looking at either one 15 BTL or 2 15 BL's. The thing is i really want to know which would be louder as far as bass and quality? What kind of setup should I use? I'm about to buy me a 2000- 2005 impala ls 3.8 v6 125amp alt. With the two Bls would i need to get a h.o. alt or would i be ok with just 1 optima yellow top in the trunk and a battery under the hood, of course the big 3 is going to be done but will 4 gauge wire be enough. also this is a daily system that i'm setting up I'm going to get 1 1500 watt brutus mono amp for now. a little help from everyone will be great thanks.

I know this is WAY out the question, but I would love to see some of Scott's prototypes. I bet their has been some cool looking stuff that just didn't make it to production. Maybe we can get a little peak of some? I could totally understand if its not possible. But maybe some older stuff that doesn't really matter anymore.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, we're out of here until Monday. To all that are traveling, travel safe! Best wishes, Fi Staff

Hi, I've placed an order on the BL 15 on December 4th, and on the link in the email you sent, it still says order processing. The money has been taken out, and it is now the 23rd. When can I expect this?

so whenever you have to install a big 50+ lb woofer by yourself in a trunk you strain the crap out of your fingers and usually need a helping hand. I remember installing my gen 2 and taking a nap right after from being exhauated. The reason im bringing this up is the square (rectangular whatever) motor of the N2 really makes it nice to handle solo: I still have to clean up a bit and put my backseat back in but i at least got to drive around a bit to give it a listen. Initial impressions, compared to the gen 2 in a similar enclosure are just that it comes alive at a lower volume than my gen 2. Its obviously still virgin tight so ill have to loosen it up a bit. Nice to …

how much longer will the old x series woofers be selling i bought two of them but but in two weeks to a month id like to buy two more i absolutely love them and want more lol so as soon as i save up the money i want two more so i hope they will last long enough for me to get them

do these designs apply to the new fi btl n2 as well? just wondering....

http://www.alibaba.com/product-free/109640968/any_subwoofres_you_want.html ROFL. Thought this was funny.

So i have looked at the ported box design at the top of the page for an X 10". My question is how will this sub perform sealed in about .75ft^3? I know ill get more output out of the ported box and a little tighter bass from sealed. Is that 32hz tuning ideal for the X 10" I would assume since the fine folks at Fi posted that diagram and they know their speaker better than anyone. Once again im powering it off the back two channels of a JL J2 320.4 so around ~180 watts. Vehicle is a 1998 explorer so space isnt the issue at work here.

Im new to the sub game. Looking for a pretty inexpensive setup that i can play everyday and that hits hard. I was looking at Fi's products and maybe just 1 ssd 15" would be nice or should i get 2 12" or just 1 18" could do what i want. Should i just forget about the 18" because of the cost of a ported box and amp and head unit would be alot? I just basically need help on which subs to pick, amp, and head unit that would be inexpensive. Thanks.

anybody got any ideas for sealing up the space around my box going into the trunk

I just wanted to give you guys a big for how killer my new BL 12 sounds. This is the first sub of this caliber I have ever purchased. It meets and then exceeds my expectations. Paired with my Sundown SAZ-1500D, it just blows me away

Ok on the box my subs shipped in there is a sticker with helpful hints. One of them talks about setting my amp with an oscilloscope to match my headunit voltage, and to set my gain. where can I find an oscilloscope and how do i do it. lol

1. Ups is the only option it has for shipping, is it okay for me to send it to them through FedEx or is the shipping that is included in the checkout for incoming and return shipping? 2.What address do i send it too? 3. Expected time before it is shipped back? Anything else i should know? Thanks in advance can't wait to have my sub working again.

I got my new woofers today. They are two Black Fiday 12's. I went to a shop nearby and had them build me a sealed box. It is one cubic foot per woofer, and its separate chambers. Problem is I didnt think about the wiring when I had them build it. So there is terminals on each side of the box for each woofer, and since its separate chambers it makes wiring difficult. So how would i wire the woofers in a series down to 1ohm having to use the two terminals.
