General Fi

hey its me JJ the 14 year old and since you Fi Car Audio doesn't reply to my emails i made an account on here to have a conversation with u about Fi Car Audio.

so im at the am/pm pulling out of the parking lot and some guy is egging me on to bump my chit......i dont know him and i dont have anything Que'd up (watchin TV) so with traffic backin up i had to bail. So i end up at the Shell station to get me some gas and before i know it, its a sideshow.....some guy heard me rumble by a few months back and came up and introduced himself to me and wanted to see it. So i show him and its cool, then someone else sees the back open and wants to check it out so he pulls over. So the nice guy i am, i decide to pull up and let him actually hear it from inside instead of across the street from Hollywood Video. You know me, i had to make som…

Hey guys, just got my Qs . I was wondering how exactly I should go about breaking in these subs, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I just looked at my woofers, and noticed the "Chrome Red Fi" is coming off the cone. It isn't peeling from the edge (like at tip of the F or I as if something peeled it back) It is coming from the middle part of the logo as it bends over the dust cap. It almost seems like the foil-ish vinyl is flexible enough to follow the curve of the dust cap? I think standard vinyl would have been fine? Anyway, anyone else have any issues like this? Is it possible to get replacement logo stickers for the dust caps?

this is my first time going with fi.my question is im goung with 2 fibtl 18`s i have a cevy silveradp quad cab.my box is going to take up my whole back seat does anybody know what max rms i can put to them.its not compeition but i still want them to work at there full potential any amp or amps u guys can reccomend........thanks

I'm stuck between these anyone have any experience with any of these or can give me some advise: 1. Specs say volume is 1.21 but really it's 1.13 http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_951_Si...e+-12SQTC-.html 2. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_7596_S...-+1H12-1.4.html 3. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_8387_S...AY+CARPET-.html Price wise they are all the same, so I just want the best sealed enclosure for good SQ bass.

i was reffered to you my "Black00" i am looking for subs that do StreetBeat/BassRace for a wall i prefer 15" but am open to doing 12" i have heard people discussing Fi @ Spl competitions in Dallas & Ft Worth Tx but have never seen an Fi sub go live... seems to be a killer looking sub . what do you recomend... i am in a 1996 Chevy X-cab w/rear seat removed. amps are mounted to the rear wall bass amp is a Massive P3000.1 1ohm per ch 2ohm bridged

Since this is where I usually get replied to(I've only ever gotten one reply to an email) I figured I'd put this here. I know you guys are busy putting out the new BTL line, so I'm not faulting you here I just want to know: What is the status of my recone? It's been a month and I havn't gotten any word. And as far as I can tell your normal turn around is 2 weeks on recones. I packaged my motor well and included what I wanted done printed on a slip of paper, and even emailed you the same info. Name on the package/paper is Richard McCraw and it was from Pittsboro NC. Any info would be helpful, thanks guys.

Are there any numbers? Street Classes, Street Max, Super Street and maybe Extreme? For example: Competitor name, vehicle, number and models of subs, electrical system and THE SCORE

Sorry for all of the NooB questions lately. I'm just undecisive right now. I do know I want to go with the BTL drivers, but not sure which combination. I have the budget, I have the space required. I'm not sure if I want 2 15" BTLs with 2k each or 1 18" btl with 3000-3500 to it. How do the Btl's compare to the MTX 9500 and the JL W7? Personally, I dont care for the JL, but I love the 9500s. Vehicle we're looking at is a big ol expedition. Plenty of room for something nice and loud. Not to sound childish, but I want something so loud, i can barely sit in the vehicle with it at max - if at all. i put a 15" 9500 in the back of a prelude once, and it was plenty loud then. - …

Will there be a black fiday sale this year?

It's been bout a week now I haven heard anything bout my subs and recone when are they going to be shipped

Title says it all...I have a Crunch GP3000D and would love to move up to an 18" Fully Loaded BTL but I'm concerned it may not be able to handle the power...box is still up in the air, I have MORE than enough space to work with (almost 9 cubes) Right now the electrical is a 235A DC Power alt, big 3, and yellowtop under the hood. So before I proceed with any plans, with an 18" Fully loaded take 3kw daily without problems?

From left to right: Standard pole cut out of bar stock prior to being turned down. Middle is a pole with a Pchamfer on it. Right is the 'Hyper pole' option on the new BL's. We do all of this here in house on either one of the CNC's or Lathes depending on the part...just an infinite amount of flexibility of what we 'can' do .

what type of set up would you recommend getting for my car to go with a 12 btl? starting from scratch, what would i need done to my car? i have a 2007 mazda 6 hatchback

I know this may sound like a stupid question, but I know nothing outside of Rockford amps. I am getting some BTL's fully loaded and am curious, what would be better to put on each one. The Kicker 2500.1 or the Sundown 3000D? This is for daily driving. Would the extra $400 be worth the extra 500 watts per sub? How good are Sundown, heard Kicker were good. Thanks in Advance

Id like to say hi to every one since i am new to the forum. I am considering buying 2 Fi SSD 12" and i was wondering which amp would be the best for these subs. Also which gauge wiring would be best and any other things i would need to get the best performance out of these subs.

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

I am going to purchase some FI subs. I am looking at 2 15's. I have been looking at the Sp415's but have been seeing alot of people have been going with the BL series. Now the BL N series is the neo mags which increase the cost. this is for my daily driver. I like my music loud. Here is some back story to where I am at. I went to a shop that took good care of me 10 years ago but all they wanted to sell me was JL audio. I think that is great equipment. Just not wanting to follow the heard. He sold me an alpine HD-137BT Head unit, 4 gauge amp wiring kit, JL 500/1, Arc Audio ARC 12d4 sub in sealed 1.25 cuft box. I have added polyfill, and had to turn up bass boost to …

as the topic says i have a 12 inch w3 and was just wonderin if a ssd would be better

Does FI still show up at 7 for chat ?

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…

Im thinking about getting 2 btl 15's...what amp would you guys recommend?
