I ordered a recone kit w/ basket for a Q. Wondering what all is included with this recone kit--push terminals, bolts for basket to motor, shim, CA glue, etc.? I'd like to have everything on hand when kit comes in.

I was wondering if this amp would power 2 12 ssd good. I am on a really tight budget, and didn't know if this was a good amp or not? http://cgi.ebay.com/BOSS-CHAOS-CH3000D-300...0QQcmdZViewItem

Hey Scott and/or Nick. So far you guys have been great regarding communication, but I sent in a 15'' BL with a cracked magnet (First in Fi History!) and I was told I would have a new one shipped out shortly. I was just curious on the status of that new sub? Thanks for your time. Weston

Hello, I am strongly considering getting some FI BLs. First, i have to say that i am very impressed with the videos I have seen of what these subs can do. I have not heard any in person, but i also hear the Sound quality is amazing. I have a good understanding of car audio and installs, im no expert. Here is some questions i have: looking at the FI BL 12" "Re: 0.75 Ohms/coil | 1.5 Ohms/coil" what is this? i thought the D1 and d2 options where ohms loads per voice coil? I have made one slight mistake on an ohm load and fried a very good sub, cause my calculations were less then 1/2ohm off. If i buy 2 FI BL 12"s can I safely run a D2 off a single channel amp? Run…

Ok Ive been designing my new system Ill be putting in this summer and for the amp I have chosen the Rockford Power T10001Bd to power a Fi Audio BL 15 and build a nice large ported box tuned low for it, but then I got bored and looked at the SSD 15 and saw it required less cu. ft. for a ported box and I could fit 2 of those 15s ported but would have to build seperate boxes for them because my trunk aint that big too put one big box in at once and I dont want to partialy build the box and have to finish it in the trunk, but another thing I dont know the final load of 2 Dual 1ohm subs are and if it did have a 1ohm load shuldnt the T10001Bd amp have enough power for both of t…

Looking for a few parts... tinsil lead, 2 15" gaskets, 4 sub terminals(with screws on the side). Any chance i could get them from fi?

Just placed my order on Monday. Scott got payment Wednesday. My 2 Bl 18's should be on there way shortly. I guess christmas is coming early this year Thanx Scott, and Nick for all the help with my choice. Have a great weekend, Jason

I have a Alpine Mrd-m1005 Amp (1000W Rms 1800 peak) amp in a 4.0 cube 35 hz box (aero port) with Alpine Type R 15. Going to purchase a Fi woofer but really unclear as to which sub I should use. Also unsure to what my setup would compare to an Sq/LSQ/Spl setup. Bassically, I love how my current setup shakes the tip of my nose and the hair on my head when I play good bass songs. Seems to hit the lows reallllly well. Also, moves a decent amount of air. I am leaning more towards that setup but something that will take it to the next level. Should I go with the SSD or the Bl 15? Knowing that.....My second option is to run my US Amp 2000 (2000W @ 2 ohm) amp to which Iv…

Ok, i am selling my bl 18's here locally over next week or so. Should I wait for the 22" FI subs or go ahead and try the IA DP 21"? Thing is I really dont want to wait awhile before gettin new subs

hi i need some help picking an fi sub for my amp i have a shift 1000rms 2000max at 1ohm i keep blowing subs and i want an fi sub can some one help me choose one that wont blow plus i want one that will shake the windows witch one would you recomend for playing loud and for long pereods of time?

So I'm new to this forum, but hoped I could get a little bit of help on an upcoming build I'll be helping a friend out with. He bought an 18" Fi BL which the seller claimed was "fully loaded". And he wants some help building a box for it. My 1st question is there a way to insure what options it was built with, like is there a serial number that can be looked up to see what it was originally bought with or a way you can tell what options it was built with? My next question is what is the optimal enclosure for these assuming it is fully loaded? He'll be running around 2500 watts (we'll set the gain to meet the power capabilities of the sub once we know what it truly is). H…

Running it on a 1500D sundown. ordering the sub on friday and I am in need of advice for options, im poor so what is need for that thing to hit hard handle most of the amp.

For a while i have been pondering on whether to get a fully Loaded 15" Btl or 2 12" Q's I know that they are in very different (technology wise), but i have read alot on these forums that sometimes cone area can over come better machinery they are relatively the same price when it all comes down to it. They will be ran off of a AudioQue 2200D I just want opinions (not criticism) on which sub/subs you guys think will pound harder. I have a 03 trailblazer and i like lows Box will be ported and built accordingly

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!

hello i have a quick question, ive seen the btl 15 has a xmax of 16 mm and the bl 15 is 21 mm so the bl shoud come out more than the btl how can the btl be louder then?? right now i have a bl15 fully loaded, whats the most power i can throw to it. i was thinking of a rockford fosgate t10001b is this a good amp or is there something close or same cheaper?

I don't know if anybody can tell me if 2 18s will fit in my car, but i drive a Montero LS and my max dimensions are 23h x 35w x 40d. Will that be able to fit 2 18s ported or 2 15s ported

I ordered a BTL 18 today, dual 1 ohm, and I was wanting to see if I could change it to dual 2. I'm using a RF T-1500, and I got to thinking that with the dual 1 I would either be able to run a half ohm load or 2 ohm. I'd like to change it to dual 2 since the amp isn't stable at a half ohm. My invoice number is: I-14072/00 Thanks for the help!

I will have ~5.4 cubes and 87" of port. What will get louder/perform better, 12s or 15s? BTW they will be BTLs with ~3kw each. I know it would be starving for the 15s, but not sure if the cone area would conteract that.

how do i order the recones the loaded btl's. i need 2 recones for 2 15inch fully loaded btl's. dual 1ohm. i emailed fi audio and no answer.

I just installed my BL12 and it is powered by a RF T1500-1bd. Could I get some input on the proper amount of power or suggestions on break-in period? Thanks

The SP4 huh? No tech info on this sub yet. When did this come out? Care to share some facts?

Alright so im going to have a pretty big box in the back seat of my quad cab, 35w 31h 17d before displacement of the sub and wood. The cab in a 99 dodge really isnt big, so its a big box and big sub in a small space. What do you think the tuning should be? i want it to get loud and low, and i was thinking 30hz. (actually like 29.7 or something) opinions? Also the sub and port will be on the 31x35 side of the box on opposite ends. Or should i center the sub?

Guys I saw a posts on another forum (i have been searching for the link somewhere) that they talked to an Fi audio rep and was told that the copper coil option increases RMS handling.... T or F Thanks

It's been a few months since Scott posted about the 10" spiders. Are they here yet? I have a 12" Eclipse basket with a variation of the TC9 motor and a pair of 15" Lightning Audio/TC-3000 baskets with 3HP neo motors that need recone kits. Also, since these are not the standard baskets that Fi uses, will I have to send in the subs for the recones or can a kit be built? -Robert
