General Fi

I see people that may not be checking the review forums coming here to get information/reviews on Fi subs. Is it possible to copy my review back to this forum for reference purposes? Just a thought to make it easier to access the information.

Hey guys, feeling kinda bored this week, not a lot going on and i decided i want to hear a demo of Fi BTL N2's before i end up buying them and i would love to listen to all different sizes. I'm located in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. So basically anyone from Ontario in the Niagara region ill drive down for a demo. Hopefully theres at least one person! Iv never heard BTL's and im absolutely stoked

Ok i was building fiberglass console for my 12" BL to be run off saz-1500d. Now I havent even taken anything out of box or used any of it yet, and probably trading vehicles this weekend. Now I will be putting stuff in 97 expedtion. My sub is BL 12" with most options except spl and flatwind. I have plenty of room for whatever in this vehicle, so i will probably sale the 12" BL. If i wanted to run some 18" Q's, how would 1 saz1500d run both of them, or should I just get 2 BL 18s with 2 saz1500ds? If i didnt already have my amp, i would just buy 3000d. I have kinetik 1400 to go up front and 1 2000 kinetik now for the back. Let me know any other suggestions also. thanks

is paypal safe from hackers? im not familiar with paypal, but i know that its risky when you give your creditcard number in the net.

hi i have a quick question, the btl line dont have extreme leads like the bls??? I AM A be getting a fully loaded btl.

in case my subs dont sell, im wondering what a recone costs. the purpose of reconing 1 month old subs is simple...trying to make them dual 2 ohm instead of dual 1 ohm and want to see if it would be cheaper to buy the kits instead of selling my bl's and rebuying another set thats dual 2 ohms. two zip codes 91941 and 91730. if i could get a quote on a 18" dual 2 ohm bl recone kit i would appreciate it. oh btw, you can recone to a dual 2 from a dual 1 right? they dont have different dimension that wont fit do they?

i have kept in contact with FI about my sub and so far i have been receiving prompt emails. the last email i sent was about 2 and a haf weeks ago, and was told they were waiting on the steel but they should have received it within 2 days. i figured since i ordered a shirt and some decals that may be the issue? i decided to post on here incase there are other users still waiting. please dont take this as a bad review towards your customer service because i am content with the prompt email responses. i just like keeping in touch, so i wont end up waiting 10 months like other users due to miscommunication

So, got the BTL all hooked up Running on a Hifonics BXI 2600D in a custom 3.3 cube box ported 33hz in a 2000 hyundai sonata And WOW WOW WOW One BEAST of a sub!!!! It keeps getting LOUDER and LOUDER!!!!!!! It moves EVERYTHING, Everyone is awestruck!!! My friend says that this ONE sub outdoes his 4 12"s by TWICE as much!! Nick, i know you got my email this morning at like 9:50 but i want everyone to know that if you like "The Bump" go BTL ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!! even though it weighs 70Lbs, i did expect THAT MUCH BASS!!!!!! im sure the my extremely good box building skills helped, but WOW Still havent turned it up all the way yet though, haha KEEP IT UP!!!!!!! 10/10 100% recco…

How many watts do i need to push a fully loaded 15" btl(daily)?

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.

Hey guys, just wanted a little input on which sub will suit me best. I have a 2003 Buick Lesabre, stock alt for now, 0 gauge throughout, optima yellow top, and a SAZ1500D. I like to listen to mostly rap. I currently have a sundown z15 v.1 in a 3 cubic foot box tuned to 34hz. I like the sundown sub, but I want something that pounds harder and louder! I am looking at 3 different 12" subs. FI BTL fully loaded, Sundown Nightshade, or SSA XCON. Now keep in mind whichever one I choose now, I will be getting a second one down the road for a total of 2. If anyone has ever made a box for a 2000-2005 lesabre let me know because i am trying to build a box that ports through the arm …

Hi, a friend of mine is intererested in 2 Fi Q15s for his Peugeot 106. He has around 5ft

I currently have 2 SSD 15s (with copper coils) in my jeep wrangler. I have them in a ported box but they just arn't loud enough for me. They're on a sundown 1500d and i have another sundown sitting around waiting to be used. I'm wondering if 4 SSD 15s in a sealed box would be louder than 2 in a ported box. I don't think i have enough space to put 4 in a ported box. Would 6 SSD 15s be noticeably louder than 4? With 2 i can give them more power than they can handle. With 4 they'll probably get about 750 rms each. With 6 they'll probably get about 500 rms each. Is the increase in cone area worth the decrease in power per woofer? I'm planning to make a fiberglass box so i thi…

Hey guys I'm in Richmond VA for a month opening a new store in the Satellite Biz. Anybody got some Fis runnin lemme know and maybe you can meet me at my Hotel or we can meet up anywhere you choose. By the way where is the PARTY at in VA....???? Also if anyone needs help w/ an enclosure while I'm here I'm all game. Thanks and have a great day.

hey, i am curious as to why some people want to recone one size sub with another size, like 18 reconed like a 15. I have seen numerous threads about this and am just very curious as to what this accomplishes in the end. Thanks

I am looking at getting 2 Fi ssd 12's. i currently have an audiopipe amp that pushes 1500 rms @ 1 ohm. would this amp work for my new subs? and if so should i get the dual 1 ohm or the dual 2 ohm?

My dad used to be really big into car audio and dbdrag's and stuff back in the day I'm talking about back in the early 90's when cerwin vega and JL was top of the line.and he is going to be helping me with my install. I was telling him about my 15" SSD and running it at around 1000 watts @1ohm. He said running your amp at a 1ohm load is bad for the amp because he said it will overheat allot quicker. He also said I will be going through amps like tissues if I run them @1ohm As long as I have my gains set right and I don't clip my amp won't overheat and crap out will it?

I've been researching car audio for awhile but just now became a member here but so far this is what i have in mind for my system.... - Fi 15" Q sealed in a custom box (dont know size yet.. 2.6?) $274 - Sundown SAE-1200D $310 - Alpine CDA-9886 $299 Then i need wires for my amp and my sub... i was thinking of getting THIS for my amp and then use THIS for my subwoofer? Does that work or should i do something else? Also i would need to buy some extra 0 Gauge wire to do the Big 3.... Anything else??? Thanx in advance, Alex

I hear all kinds of different installs while playing around on here. Funny thing, I don't really see to many people running a sealed setup, almost all ported and IB. Is there any reason for that? I honestly never heard a sealed setup and am curious.....

as in Scott aka FiCarAudio ? if u see this Scott I understand ur busy but I just need to get in contact you. weather you call me or email... I've tried calling for a while.. your inbox is full... did something happen? please call me

so my bro has a reg cab ford f150 and he wants a fully loaded btl 12 ran off a rockford 30001bd amp 1/0 wire 2 kinetics excessive amperage alt. what do you guys think.. he also said moneys not a problem.. so yeah..

Greetings all, I'm in need of a single new 12" sub for use with my current amplifier and sealed box (daily driver), and was wondering if any of the Fi products would work nicely. Amp: Phoenix Gold ZX500 (rated at 600RMS bridged, 4-ohm load) PG websites states the amp may be underrated by 5 to 15% - so maybe closer to 700RMS? Box: Audioformz monoGlass12 sealed fiberglass at .95 ft^3 Other: Factory electrical system, with the addition of a useless 1-farad stiffening cap. Enclosure located in trunk of a small sedan, facing rear corner. Partially open rear deck. Interested in either the Fi Q or Fi SSD 12" in dual 2-ohm configuration, but not really sure if any of the option…

I am buying a 15 fi q and was thinking about using the alpine pdx m12 because I have the four channel pdx. I want a good amp with real good sq. Anyone have experience with the amp
