General Fi

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

This is my post from ca.com. i posted this over there and completely forgot to show love to the FI forum here . here it is though.

i just recieved my FI Q 10 and i am currently looking at a sealed box with .65 cuft before sub will this be ok? i am pushing 1100 w to it easy on the gain. any help or opinions would be appreciated

Magnets have been cleared today and we should have our container in on Monday. Orders will start shipping out on Monday in the order that they were received. Thanks!

i have a dodge magnum. i see alot of people building boxes that have the subs firing up and the port towards the rear. ive never heard a car/truck with the box like that. ive always used rear face rear firing boxes. is there a difference? is it noticable if so?

I hope that am in the right section for this post, if not, am sorry admin. I have been trying to post a drawing up so that i could get some feedback on it with no luck. Can someone steer me in the right direction. Thanks in advance for the help.

Anyone care to show off the new BTL? :]

HEy guys, I recently sent my sub in for repair. It has been two weeks since they got it and I still havent heard from them. Ive emailed them twice with no luck. This is getting quite irritating because I can never get ahold of them unless Ive purchased something. lol Any phone numbers? any help appreciated, Thanks.

Im trying to see which sub is a good "SQL" sub. I had a 10w7 in a ported box and it rocked. Im looking to put 2 10's in my nissan titan in a ported box, its gonna have about 1.3 cu ft for each chamber, powered by a sundown 2000d.

Just purchased a new in crate 18" btl with the ufo style motor.is there a way i can tell if it has the daily use or spl option?? The sub is EXTREMLY stiff.. I looked on the inside to see wat it said in maker on the former but all it said was dual 2 btl 18 fc. I hope its the daily lol im gona need to sell it if its the spl option unfortanantly.. any input would be greatly appreciated.thanks

Im totally lost on what options i should choose when configuring a BTL. Im looking to get a 12". Its gonna be used as a daily speaker in a ported box. im confused about choosing the P chamfer and the cooling part, and the rest of the options lol. I already have an amp that gives 2700 watts RMS, so most likely ill be using this amp unless this isnt safe? please help me in deciding which options i should choose while keeping the things i stated before in mind. Thank you in advanced. please help my noob self as much as possible

Installed a BL 12 last night and I was wondering how long does this thing need to break in before I can play it loud? Thanks. All the gains are pretty much down.

ok im building a box for my grand cherokee let me know if this box is good ok H-18 W-39 D-30 Port H-6in W-24 D-10 what do you think this box will be tuned to please help

Well I sent in my FI sub for repairs at the beginning of may. Sent a few emails to Mr. Shawn, and he said they would repair it. After a while I started getting no response. Probably because of the recent medical issues. Hopefully you are recovering Mr. Shawn. Thoughts and prayers go out to you. Anyway, I got an email from him about 2 weeks ago, and I emailed him back. I have gotten no reply yet. Today I try to send another email, and none of my emails are being delivered to them. I am getting this message: Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups: [email protected] A problem occurred during the delivery of this message to this e-mail address. Try sending thi…

Alright guys ive read many of the forums on here and i have a pretty good idea on what im getting. But there is a lot of stuff im confused on..Here is what i know i am getting for sure: FI BL 15 inch sub Refurbished Sundown 1500D amp from www.db-r.com Wiring:http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KLM-AK0 KLM 1/0 Amplifier Installation Kit (60A fuse type) ( Is this the right wiring i should get? I saw people say to get the 1/0) Now this is where i get confused... Box- i know i want a ported box, i was going to get my friend to make it. He has experiance making boxes..Or should i get a professional place to do it ( costs way more money though) these were the…

I have a few questions about the Fi X series subs... I am going to buy 2 of the 12" and would like to know a few things before I purchase... The number one thing is... How much power is too much? I know Scott said not to expect super power handling but I mean is 400 RMS fine? How about 500 RMS? I know with most subs 200 rms over is no problem but that is 2/3 again the RMS rating on these so I was just wondering... Also, would you classify these as more spl or sq? I know it is probably not extremely high spl or sq but for the price you cant beat it... Im gonna be putting these in a 1cf per sub box with polyfil in it and pushed by either 300 or 400 RMS a piece... What kind …

Well I placed my order on Dec. 4 and my order still has not shipped. I spoke with Shawn on Monday and was told it would ship out Tuesday or Wednesday it is Friday now and they are still not shipped. I have been very patient upto now. I was not quoted a time frame of this length at time of purchase. And I have been mislead on several occasions. I know they are busy but give me a date and stick to it. I wasn't expecting to wait two months for my subs that's not what I signed up for. Thanks, and any help having this issue resolved would be greatly appreciated!

I'm probably going to get a Bl 15 soon so i was reading the "tech" section on the fi website about the BL's. One thing i didn't understand is why they said that they recommend getting the P-chamfer option when they don't even offer it for the sub as far as i know. If you look at the bl's that option does not show up.

Here is my video of Bass Boom Bottom by power supply. My 15" Fi BL is powered by an American Bass VFL 150.1 at 1 ohms...Just recently installed the Epic 160..Last night actually..Not finished installing, still need to fill in the gaps around it with some vinyl pieces...Anyway..Here is a quick video of it..On the Epic I am getting 142 db's with the back seats up..I do have blow through in my rear deck..But the seat is still Up..

Hey guys, I am looking at getting 4x 10" woofers (hopefully from Fi) and it looks like I am stuck between the BL and the SSDs. I like the SSDs because they can be put in a smaller box, but I like the BLs beucase they have better performance than the SSDs. My question is how much better? I dont think currently I will be able to toss 8k watts at all four 10s like the BLs require, but I will be able to eventually. I have the electrical to back it up as well. I am trying to switch from a single 15 to 4 10s and have the ability to probably almost double my power eventually. I am pushing a single 3500D with a 350 amp alty and three huge bats.

Can someone provide me specs including displacement and power handling? I need a price on recone as well for it will need it soon.

just wanted to know wut kind of soldering gun you guys use to solder the tinsel leads on to the subs, im goin to recone my sub soon and i dont have a good soldering gun. and wut percent silver solder do yall use.

well i been lookin at the BL 15 for a while now and I decided to grow a pair and buy one! Placed my order, hurt to look at the receipt a bit but it'll be worth it! my 6" PSP port should be here shortly too ;P

Looked at the technical posts on SSD's did not find any explanation on this extr , what is BP power , what does it do ??
