General Fi

Ive sent a couple of E-mails to Nick but have not gotten any updates yet. I ordered a recone on June 17th for a 15" BTL triple stack magnets D1 with white dustcap lettering My name is Matt and my email is [email protected] and my tracking is 1ZX7497Y0343439336 I am getting rather frustrated considering the BTL is sold and I am just waiting on the recone so I can recone it and get it shipped to the buyer. I understand Fi is a busy company hand building there subs. I just want a little update

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 am currently beginning an installation for my 2002 Ranger super cab. I will be running two BTL 12's in this install. I would like some opinions on this setup. Some people may think im crazy for putting this into a small space. But I live by the rule get loud or go home. Let me know what you all think about how this will turn out and how hard it will be hitting.

Hi All, Just goined up and i would like to buy 2 fi btl 18" subs, will FI ship me 2 to the UK, and how much would shipping be please. I have emaild FI but got email back that "experiencing VERY high email volume and are somewhat delayed in our responses" so they must be busy Looking forward for a repply. ATB P.

Ok I have a 12" Fi Q and love it! So I was wondering if someone could point me to examples of full range or almost full range 6.5 round drivers for the back seats in the doors. Right now I have full range Pioneer drivers, but was wondering if getting something like AAs Poly Driver would improve the quality of the sound, or should I not bother. Somehow Fi is related to Ascendant Audio, not sure how though.. Thanks. Mike

I am about to purchase 2 18" Fi BTL subwoofers(dual 2 ohm).. I already own 2 t40001d Rockford Amps. I am installing this in a 96 cadillac fleetwood, the car is currently runiing a 2 300 amp altenator and 5 total yellow top batteries.. The questions I have are: ---Will these amps be enough for the subs? ---What would be the best box size? ---And what would be the best to tune the port too? ---And is there anything else I should get that anyone can think I will need?

I am going to be purchasing a 15 Fi Q, and powering it with a Sundown Audio SAE-1200D. I wanted to ask what ohm sub I should order and if the BP option is a good choice. The amp does 1200x1 @ 1 ohm. i was going to build a 2.5ft sealed enclosure, suggestions? im rollin a 94 s10 blazer. thanks homies.

Ok quick comparison. I need to buy an alternator very soon and here's probably the best ones i've found so far. http://powerbastards.com/proddetail.asp?prod=Fitzall%2D220 I think this is a ledgit site and product, input? I think this one needs to be custom mounted which will a pain in the balls and will cost a good amount to do. or there's this one that after looking at my current alternator looks to be one that will fit without fabrication... http://www.maniacelectricmotors.com/hiampalrefor.html Any one with a maxima also? Between the two which should I go with? I am going to be running a SAZ-2000D in a '03 Nissan Maxima 3.5L...ummm 15" BTL...no other electrical up…

I now have a re se 12" running off of a hifonics amp that is putting 900rms at 2 ohms to the sub, in a 2 cubic foot enclosure ported at 32hz. would it be a sufficient upgrade to get a Fi Q 12", and put it in the same box with the same amp? i would run the amp at 1 ohm. it's 1 ohm stable at 1200rms. and both subs are within the specifications of the box. ups and downs of this upgrade? very noticable difference because of xmax? (RE=18mm, Q=27mm)

I have a 99 navigator that I just got and am getting ready to put a system in. I am strongly considering the FI BTL 18" sub and would like to get a fosgate t40001bd amp. However, the price increased from last time i looked so the t20001bd is probably in my price range moreso then the t40001bd. I will be getting the sub fully loaded and am fairly unexperienced with high quality subs and amps. My first question is how does a single 18 sound and should I go with dual 1 ohm or dual 2 ohm coils. Will the t20001bd (2000 watts rms @ 1 ohm) be enough to power this sub and make it hit the way it should, or should i go with a different brand of amp ($700 budget)? Finally, would I n…

hey guys i was just wondering who i can contact about switching my order from a 15" to the 18" btl and paying the difference i email nick but no response he is probably busy! was wondering if i could contact someone else i wanna change it before its to late!! thanks a lot guys!

My 18' Bl comes soon i wanna start workin on the box.......i want that shit loud and heard from a distance while it still pounds your insides!!! hhahaha....anyways what should i build a small box medium or large for my needs...can anyone explain the differences in the quaility of sounds from differnt size boxes???and when i mean large im talking like the size of my lancers trunk which isnt that large but still nice...

:clap: i finally received my subs on monday the 15th and got them installed the same day but today the 19th i finall finished the install and cleaned it all up so it looks proper. just added my 2nd battery and did the big three with stinger pro 4 gauge wire. it sounds amazing and u feel every note with authority. i am a Fi customer for life now. http://i900.photobucket.com/albums/ac202/owenmakenna/005.jpg

My paypal payment was accepted on June 6th and I was wondering if I was supposed to get a tracking number right away and they would update it when it was shipped..or do they give you the tracking number when it is actually shipped?

Today as i was listening to my music, my bass shut off. i turned off all power and parked my car at the house. I came out about half an hour later to find my car filling up with smoke and when i opened my trunk i found my port spewing smoke. After i was finally able to get the box out of the trunk, i examined the damage. The voice coil is pretty messed up along with the spider. I was curious if anyone had any clue what would cause that damage? today was an extremely hot day but i wouldn't think that would be enough to push my sub over the edge.. I've also been listening at that volume since i got the sub in september of last year. Also, will the BL recone kit on you…

Hi there i have an 18" BTL the older style one with the tripple magnet and while taking out the whole system so i could design a new box i pulled out the sub from the old box and spotted that the spider on the btl was ripped in about 2-3 places 1 of them being a noticeable rip and the other 2 look like there about to rip and also i found out that where the spider is glued to the cone the spider was coming unglued in a few places. I wanted to know does this mean that i need a re-cone or is it salvageable, pictures are below, the pictures below are of the major rip one Thanks

This made me smile if its truthful. I hope to be able to break 110 dB once I get both of my amps strapped to my 15. But still, is it most likely his in car speakers doing that? Or is it his sub?

like the topic says.... who do I contact? I've dealt with Scott on previous occasions but his number cell seems to be off and voice mail is full...lol... busy man... so who do I contact? thanx, Peter

I have a 12" BL thats was dropped ans the basket broke right off the motor. I am planning on selling it and was wondering would you rather fix it yourself or buy it fixed? I am planning on JB Welding it back together. I will be selling 2. One is a month old and is perfectly fine. What do you guys think?? They are both 12" BL D2 w/Hyper Pole.

ok everyone I just installed my 2 - 12" fi Bl's running off a RF 2000.1 ....Tomorrow (6-17-09) there is a local car show thrown by a radio station in my city and i would like to enter into the "bass-off" and "bass-race"competition. this will be my first time doing any competition like this and i would like some advice on how i should approach it: such as .....should i play music or use like a bass cd or even use like a test tone cd. am i supposed to have the windows up or down? (i have a ported box BTW) i have a 2005 impala ss...should i fold the rear seats down? i know it seems like alot of questions but i figure this is the best place to get some honest answers. T…

I'm wondering if anyone know if I have to upgrade anything if i just want to put a 12" FiQ in my trunk. I want to conserve trunk space so I'm not looking for a full out system just something for quality. Is this the right sub or should I get something else? Any suggestion on head units I been looking at pioneers and soud storm. Suggestion will be nice and ill look into them. I'm going to make a box and should be at about 1.8 Will post pictures when all done. Might not be up until later this year since im going on vacation :]. Switching from JBL to FI btw.
