Whats the major diff between a 15" FI BTL and a 15" Ascendant Audio Mayhem? Features and Nitche market.... I mean, I thought I read that the same guys designed and build both.... Both look pretty sweet... I would not mind owning either... Just real quick as I'm at work, was crusing the net on break but the biggest difference I saw besides cosmetics was the Mayhem has Silver 8AWG Push terminals 2500W RMS vs the BTL Did not see anything about the terminals listed on the site for the BTLs 2000w RMA Looking at all the Parameters most of the specs seem pretty close... within a digt or two... I'm sure there are others, but thats all I saw in the time I had.... Just curious …

Got my new BL 15 today, its so pretty I wish i had the box already built so I could just install it and hear it.

equipement: headunit - alpine 9887 amp - 4 sundown saz1500d subwoofer - 2 FI BL15 not full option Batt - 2 xs 3100d here's the picture: FI bl15 4 saz1500d with 2 xs 3100d: and the result:

I got mine in today.... I can't find the thread about them. Are they all gone? I have to admit they are cute..... lmao they have miniature fi dustcaps. It's like a baby bl.

This kid claimed to do 139.9db which I don't mind...he was running 2 12" MTX 5500 subs, with a kenwood amp. Next thing I noticed is that he had a sticker on his back glass that says "135db+ at the head rest". I was like why dont you meter it at the dash, he was like if I do that I will hit 145db, and when I do the db comp I dont burp because it would kill the competition. Thats what he told me.... Those subs was in a pre-fab box probably 1cuft per sub ported.... Then I let my system wang for a little bit, lets say the people on the other side of the parking lot managed their way over to my car to see what that noise was or where it was coming from. They thought it wa…

hey this is for scott, I don't know if you've been getting my emails or not, so I figured since it's been a while I'd just post here. If you didn't get my emails lmk. I talked to Tim Roy of sound xtreme and he said he can recone them. so if you're too busy just lmk, and I'll have the one you have shipped to him or the guy who paid me for it. feel free to email me if you'd like to pm call whatever... Thanks, Tom

whats the difference between the fi btl and the fi bl ?

Should I get Dual 1 or Dual 2?

I ordered an Fi Q subwoofer last monday morning, and it's now wednesday (8 business days) and the shipping status still hasnt changed. Sorry if im a bit impatient lol. Any chance anyone from Fi could contact me or anyone here have word that they're backed up or something? I emailed them as well but i figured i could get a faster response here.

8 Fi BTL 18's.......you know the deal this might give you a feel just by looking at them how loud it is zVobtkB3H7A i do believe those are the first real victims since they were sealed up inside with me

Hey all. I'm upgrading my low-end from 2 12" Xplods and I've settled on 2 15" Fi Qs, with BP Power, pushed by an AQ2200D amp. I'm looking at putting them in a ported box, but I realize this box is going to be quite large (my trunk dims are 40" deep, 19" high, 48" wide). Fi recommends 2.8-4cuft so the box would need to be 6-8cuft right? I'm thinking about tuning it at 32Hz, from what I've heard from a lot of people with these subs. I listen to hip/hop and rap mostly, and I love songs that get low (like Gorilla Zoe or Young Jeezy songs for example). Is this a good tuning freq? I don't want to completely lose some of the "higher" bass notes but I want an extremely solid low…

Ok so im planning on running Stinger hpm 0 ga, with a audioque 2200d pushing a 12" btl in a 2.0 cu. ft. box tuned to 32 hz will be getting bigger soon got it cheap from a friend, and will be keeping my alpine cda 9883 hu for now, this setup will be in a 04 ranger edge with the 3.0, may take my old 4ga wiring from old setup to do big 3, mostly depending on how bad dimmage i have, is there anything ive missed or need to do other than that? Also i hear a lot about people "clipping" being a noob what can do to not let this happen so far ive had 3 audio setups and have had none blow dont wanna start with my btl! Thanks

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

so the UPS man dropped off my new Q15 and now I want to make sure I protect my Q from accidental bumps and scuffs. anyone here use a grill or know one that will fit the 15?

which would be louder/better for daily..the 4 15s or 2 18" BTLs..

Hi i will be buying 2 fully loaded bl 15's and i have a 2001 blazer extreme i plan on making the box around 8 cubic feet and about 32 hertz and a 200 amp alternator with 0 guage wire and i was wondering which amp to go with ehtier 2 of the Hifonics BXi 2008D or 1 Pioneer Premier PRS-D2000SPL so if some one could help me out or tell me which amp would go good. my price range for amps is about 400 to about 800 max so i would greatly apperiate it if some one could help me out thanks

Hey guys hows it going? I was hoping that ya can help me out. I currently have a daily/SPL setup in my car. I am bumping a pair of Kicker L7 12s with a Alphasonik amp that is feeding them a 1,000 watts each rms. I love my subs but I feel that I need to upgrade. My subs work great in the USACI lanes and I have gotten a offical 148.5 db with them. But I can not use them for daily use. After about 10 -15 I start to smell burnt coils ( Kicker L7s are only rated at 750rms each). So I am looking to get a pair of 12" BLs. My qustion is; what options should I go with in making this sub? Can I use my current box? It is tuned to 30hz and 4.5 cubic ft for each sub. I am not a hardc…

I'm going crazy. My Q should have shipped on the 20th according to my UPS quantum and it still hasn't. I mean, it is all I have left to do my install to make my car go from sounding like to :bigclap: It's driving me crazy! Need....good...music!

Well I had been planning on doing this anyways, but now i suppose I have some incentive to get it done faster... My Current System Consists of Pioneer P5700 Head Unit Infinity Kappa 63.7i (3way 6.5) Infinity Kappa 60.7cs (6.5 Component) Alpine M1005 Alpine F545 Previously 2 Alpine 12in Type R's Currently 1 18in Fi BL I am using a 6^f box @ 32hz w/ 95.625in of Port Area I will be rebuilding soon. This box is awesome, but is about 3in to wide, and i want something that looks better(planning on fiberglass) The Amps(Excuse the Mess..it was when I first set them in there) Speakers Head Unit Remote Interface Subs!!! Installed Vid 1/3 Full Volume 1/2 Full Gai…

After some time being away and such I'm getting ready to order an Amp and a BL 15". I've been looking to buy a Kicker ZX1000.1 but I have yet to be able to understand the relation of ohms between amps and subs...I'm terrible at math. The amp does 1000W RMS at 2 ohms so does that mean I would want the 1 ohm option with the BL? --Thanks for any replies.

This is a new project going in my friends Charger R/T. He wants to slowly setup a nice SQ setup. We will more than likely use the Q's. If doing an IB, the rear deck will be completly blocked off and sealed up. Any suggestions or ideas would be great....thanks.

well its been about a month and im happy to report that my subs are breaking in a little....they are still very stiff so they arent all the way broken in yet but they sound better every day My laptop is broke so i cant meter it ATM and i dont really have a place to do it anyway (or the time to do it) but to me, knowing what it DID sound like, i have to say its louder and has more authority. I can tell by watching the hairtrick vids i made that there is a difference. Also, i usually use the large screws with #3 heads to hold the subs in but for the past year almost i have had to use the "gold" screws from home depot and put them in at an angle to get to "fresh meat". …

Big Fi sticker I saw just after I got off I-9Five this morning.

2 FI BL 18's with 2 sundown saz-1500d strapped, powermaster d3100 in back, 98 ford expedition, about 19.5 cubes before sub and port tuned to 33hz. may try to do a hair trick or something this weekend.
