General Fi

Need a solid amp, roughly 4-5000w, around $1000 to power 2 18" BTLs. Ideas? What electrical am I going to need? Can I get away with 1 HO alt and a few batteries?

Like the title says, one of the magnets on my 12" Fi Q split in half. Don't know how, but I noticed the woofer was making strange noises a week or so ago, and took it out to investigate. I heard that this wasn't exactly a unique case, as other Fi products seem to have split magnets as well, possibly UPS is dropping them? At any rate, who do I contact for help? I have emailed Fi with no response. Is there anyone on the forum that could help speed this up? The sub is still covered under warranty, if this issue is covered under warranty...

Hi there, I have a small sealed enclosure with a Diamon Audio D3 sub that I want to upgrade, the box is around .95cf sealed, 22" long x 13" wide x 8" deep, I think its .5"mdf How would a SSD12 sub work in this enclosure getting around 600RMS from an alpine amp on a center console of a Ram Quad Cab? THX in advance

Just checked the website and noticed all the subs are on sale!

Finally after a few weeks of telling myself to buy it, I just did. I'm already way too anxious for this sub. It's going to be quite different from my last sub stage which was 4RE8's in a 6th order bandpass. Im going to be running this one at 2ohms off of an md2d. Right now I'm looking at running it a ported box of 4cuft at ~28 hz. Any other sugggestions? -Justin

hey FI crew. been now for about two months that im trying to contact you about an international order, whats up with the delay i dont even have a chance to order the subs ive been waiting for more then a month just for an answer. please update , emailing you has gone useless. thanks Eli.

Ok, well i sent and email to [email protected] but i figured that i might just post up on the forum to share with everyone else this information. I apologize about not posting on here first as i read the sticky AFTER i had emailed you guys. 1. Do you sell Recone kits? (soft parts excluding the basket unless i need it and does it come with glue?lol) 2. What Recone kits do you offer (BTL, BL, SSD, Q, RE SX? ______________ and what else?) 3. How much are each of the Recone kits shipped? 4. Do you have a Shim i could maybe purchase? 5. Could you include more information about the recone kit? ( what size 2" 2.5" 3" do you offer 4"?) 6. How many layers do the Recone kit co…

Got a customer that is considering going with either a q10 or ssd 10. Customer mainly listens to rock, metal and other types of music along those lines. If i stick with the 1.5 cu.ft. net spec and tune alittle higher around 35-37 hz, how will that sound. Also, customer requirements is the sub has to be dual 2 ohm 1000 watts continous per what he stated. The vehicle is a1998 single cab Dodge Truck and the enclosure is replacing the center console with the both the sub and port firing back at the cab rear wall. Space from baffle to cab rear wall 6-8 inches. Phil Woodlawn Cabinetry

Wow. that describes it. Last night I heard a 15" btl ran off of 1500 watts and it was so loud. I just ordered a 15" bl on thursday and if my sub gets any where near as loud as that one im gonna be pretty happy. After getting that little taste of fi im impressed.

My friend has two Alpine Type R's. After hearing me mention the fact that Fi makes recone kits for a coupla companies, he asked me to find out if you guys could recone his Type R's. -Thanks -Chris

Here are the recommendations for an SSD 12" so you don't need to open another window or tab, for you Firefox users for reference. SSD 12

System: Alpine 9857 Avt 911 JBL bpx2200.1 JBL gto1004 (2) Fi BL 15" (2) Focal VR165 (2) optima engine battery kinetik hc1400 (2)

the cap on my 18" btl has a dent on it and i need a new one who can sale me 1?

if you had the choice what would you take 2 12" ssd's getting 600 watts each or a 15" Q getting 1200 watts. Both would be in optimum enclosures tuned around 32HZ. I want it to be loud and be able to hit the lows and sound good while doing it.

Since copper coils are now standard on the SSD line, I was wondering if the flatwind voice coils are also copper?

title. im planning on getting a 12" btl but i dont have the funds until around the end of the month, was hoping that it would last till then. so what does it end? thanks

is there a certain distance the driver wants to be from the back of the enclosure or is it fine anywhere as long as the correct amount of volume inside the box is present? also, is there any advantage to buying a dual voice coil sub over a single voice coil?

well my recones from Fi came and they were supposed to be dual 2s....so i could run my ab 500.1 at .5ohm....but the coils read 1.5....which means i have to run my amp at .35.....not very good..... just curious as to why they arent actual dual 2s

Is this possible? I would be interested if so.

Hi, How can get a hold of FI Recone deportment other than e-mail? The problem is that I been waiting to send a payment for 2 RE XXX 12" recone kits, I have e-mail them several time on where to send it, but I don't know why is taking them so long to get back at me on this.

Wondering when you guys expect the BTL backorder to be filled and shipped? Maybe its already done I don't know ha just seeing what the overheads looking like. Thanks

I havent really seen anyone hook 3 subs up to one amp, is this possible without causing big impedence problems. If it is, what would be a good amp to run 3 1ohm subs, or should i get the 2 ohm version?

how big does the hole need to be for the fi bl 18??my order never came with a template....thanks!

so i have been tracking my shippment and it finaly got over the border and into windsor. but all of a sudden it is back in the states no in ilinios? what does this mean and am i going to have to pay more dutie on top of this?

Sup guys Given i have limited space in my ride i was wondering which of these boxes would be loudest: ported 5.3cuft after displacements @ 31hz or sealed 6.88cuft after sub displacement I could tear out the backseats which would give me plenty room to make huge boxes (16cuft) but im not really eager to do so. But i will if there's no real option. Im also just wondering if this will be louder/lower than my previous setup : 2 12" RF Punch HX2's ~ 4.3cuft @ 33hz PS. This is on a 1000wrms
