    Hey guys, I thought it would be a good idea if we could have a place to check the status on our subs upon request. With the new contest, I thought it would be a great addition to the board. The UPS tracking number is one way to check, but when your in my situation, about 4+ days for an SSD, I think it would be nice to know how your sub is doing, and when it will ship out. I know the guys at Fi are busy, and although this would be a great addition to the forum, they have the final call if this thread is a go. So I will start. Please include your name, e-mail, day payment was recieved, and type of subwoofer.

    Hello there. I am looking for a subwoofer to compete in Swedeish serie of Bassrace this summer,I've been looking at the BL's and the BTL's and i am not realy sure what to go with. Because thay need to handle music both loud and ("Good" if you can say that about SPL woofers). The Amp i got at this moment is a Mutant 1500xxx,so i have abit over 1500wrms to play with. I have send mails to you guys at FI somehow i haven't got an replay yet so i'll take this in the forum insteed. Is it possible for me as a Swedish cusomer to buy subs directly from you? Have a nice day // Confused guy from sweden.

  5. I recently had a system set up in my xterra and i had purchased a dual 2ohm Fi Q 10" to be run by a cadence iA7 amp. (see following link for specs on the amp: http://www.powermaxelectronics.com/product...amp;idcategory= ). The box was built to be stealth in my xterra and is a sealed and i was told built to house about 0.4cubic feet. (middle of recommended area for this sub) that said, they told me the measured resistance on each coil was ~1.5 ohm so they set up the system to push 3ohm. however, it seems that the sub is rather flat or not quite as responsive as the installers would have expected. i was told that this amp doesn't have enough power for the sub but in t…

    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?
