General Fi

Hey everyone, I'm new here! I'm about to put some bass back into my car finally. Just hoping you guys can be a little better help than RoE was. So I'm thinking I want to go with 1 12" SSD and I'm looking at a Hifonics BXi1206D amp. I'm only looking to spend about $600 on everything. Now a few questions: Do you think that amp is a good match? What type of box should I run? (I like real powerful bass) And is my 4ga wire going to be enough. (I already have a Rockford Fosgate p400.4 hooked up to my door's) Thanks in advance!

Also which sub would be best to get for an overall better sub? The fully loaded BTL18 or the RE MX18? the mx looks mean but both seem like good subs.

Lookin into putting together another set up for the spring and summer. Last year two 12cvr on (dont laugh) power acoustik BAMF1800 bha. Question is how much would a 15 Q running off say..... hifonics BXI 1210 d embarrass the kickers? Oh port facing back in town car ( big @$$ clamshell trunk)

as title says looking for the newest update on BTLs. I ordered towards the end of back order but really hoping i can recieve my woofers in the next couple weeks. I have 4 audio competitions between August 28th and September 8th so an updates can help me. I do not wanna rip out the system i have now to not recieve anything before this time period but id like to start my wall build if i will. Any updates will put me at ease =) thanks, justin

I was just turned onto fi and i love their chit. where can i get like an 18' btl. how much is it gonna cost?

im ordering a 18" bl series sub with coling, flatwind, and for daily. what would be the pros and cons of gettin a 1 ohm or 2 ohm or universal sub?

I can design shirts, put them on basically anything you can wear and sell them for free in a store. Let me know if we can work something out and give me your email so we can talk about it!

Hey I ordered a D1 SSD 10 awhile ago, with the BP Power option and the copper coil. My tracking number says that my sub came today at 2:11pm and was delivered to my front door, but my mother was here all day and says she never had somebody come to the door. I came home at 3:20 and there was no package outside then. It is now 6:11pm and there is still no sub here. Is this typical with tracking orders from Fi? I contacted UPS and they said to contact Fi. Please get back to me ASAP as I am really worried I will not get my sub. I emailed Scott a little bit ago and just put this up to see if any1 could give me any other info. Thanks, Ross

Now that I'm working agian, I'm ready to spend some of the money I just made... I have a Q10 and talked to Nick a while back about changing the coils from dual 1ohm to dual 2ohm in order to match my sae-1000D better. My question is: since the sub would be in the hands of Fi for the recone to change the coils, would it be worth it to upsize to a bigger cone as well? such as a 12 or 15? I will run this sealed because it is in an extended cab s10. So basically, will going from 600rms to 1100rms make a big difference or not? Thanks in advance, Mike B.

Is there a list of subs-brands and models-that FI knows they can recone, without sending it in perhaps???? soo many ?'s about recones. j/w cuz it would be nice to know, can be on the lookout for these subs if we knew what ones can be, ya know what im sayin?? Thanks

dropped it to .5 ohm today and holy chit... only have the 2 videos that i made today with it at that load, this one and the one where my cd player is skipping all over the place. http://s204.photobucket.com/albums/bb197/1...nt=SNC10101.flv

how much does a fully loaded 18" btl weigh?

Anyone got Old style FI BTL 12 or 15? max 320 $ with shipping

hey guys need some help just got an fi btl 12 dual 2 and need to know what would push this bad boy...single cab f150... also this baby has 2krms does that mean thats as much rms as i can go or can i put more

Alright i aalready asked this before but never really got an answer. What do you think would be louder 2 12" SSD's each getting 750-1000 watts or a BL 18 getting 1500-2000. Please dont say it depends on the install. lets just say they are in there optimal enclosures.

what do you think of a 12 ssd or q sealed on 1k rms. looking for good sq and rather loud bass

Wudup guys I need some help/advice once again about my box that I just picked up today..I made sure to include pictures so it'd be easier....well just look at it...a 15" BTL is going into it and i know it has the size. I punched the dimensions of the box into a box calculator and it's around 4cuft. But look at the ports..they look too small. Are they? I've never seen ports on a box for a BTL that look so small..look in the third picture. Also you can see that it's not an L shaped port...it just kind of ends..it's just straight as you can see in the third pic... Anyways it's supposed to be tuned to around 32hz but i can't figure out how i can make sure it is...any hel…

I've made a couple of these threads but I recently picked up 2 Rockford T1500's for a steal. Now I'm definately close to purchasing 2 15 BL's and just curious what the experts have to say on this. I'm thinking since they are RF's they are going to be rated a bit higher rms, so how will that go along with the BL's? Also, what reccomendations do you have when it comes to wiring these? It says they arent bridgable, but can I still make this work? Pretty clueless when it comes to amps/wiring and all that. Thanks for all your help guys.

Well, i bought the BL 12" about month ago and right when i was building box for it, i traded vehicles. I thought when I got this expedition I was going to want something alot bigger than just 1 12". So, I got a box designed for 2 BL 15's and had decided thats what i was going to do. But, I already had the 12" and a sundown 1500d, so I went ahead and threw together a box, and my wife has been wanting to fiberglass, so she finished it saturday night and I got it put in last night. Now, after playing it all day, I am amazed how good this 1 12" sounds. I still have stock electrical for now, as I thought i would upgrade it when i got 2 15's. But now, I am pretty set on keeping…

are these good amps - http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=16922 - will that run my Fi Q 12 at max power at 2 ohms? im new to this thing

FiQ 18 + AQ2200 at 2 ohm vs AQ hdc3 18 + AQ2200 at 1 ohm really confused and dont know with sub to get because I originally wanted the FiQ for its SQ but for $60 cheaper I can get something LOUDER...but how is the hdc3 18 when it comes to SQ Help would be appreciated

need a recone for my mag viii, now do i send the motor in to Fi and get it sent back or can i prchase a recone and do it myself? and if i could do either or what would a round about price be for either, im in cali. for shipping

On the BTL/BL..etc.. The terminal posts are to accommodate size 12 gauge speaker wire, and if you want to run it from a 1ohm load in parallel. Then you would have to cut the amount of strands in half per wire, so basically you have 24AWG of each going into the terminals. Just seems small. Since my amp (2500RMS) has 0AWG inputs for power, and 4AWG for speaker wire hookups. Other subs with equal power handling I have seen have way larger terminals. Is there a reason to the small terminals? What do you guys do to ensure you able to put the most amount of power to the sub?

As i were ordering a 18" fi btl fully loaded, i noticed i didnt find norway on the shipping address, someone know why or ? cant i get a pair of these to norway ?
