    Hey I emailed sales [at] FiCarAudio.com 10 days ago and then emailed Nick and Shawn a day later. I still haven't heard back from anyone. I'd like to order a Fi Q 10" no BP Option. I can't place the order via the webpage because I'm in Hawaii. I know shipping is going to be more, thats okay I'm ready to order now. Please get in touch with me. I emailed the request from dj.kickz [at] gmail.com

    well i just received my first Bl loaded 12" from FI. holy sh..........it! This new speaker blows my two previous Type R 12's away!!!!!!!! Much deeper lows and the highs are much more noticable. Due to money restraints, it is even on the same RF1000w/rms amp i previously had as well as it is even in a 1.25 cu.ft. Q-logic ported sub box!!! I can probably go with a bigger box and amp too huh? this is my plan so, if any one can help with ideas it would help out (new at this)......... I will be purchasing a second sub and I am having a sub box built to FI specs for the two to fit in Ford Focus trunk. Will also be buying (from somewhere) a Sundown 3000d to power both and …

    I had a pair of Q 12's sealed and wasnt a fan. Loved one ported but had trouble selling single. I got good deal on a BL 10. Whats optimum tune for daily. I read 32hz. If I tune it to 30 would it be noticeable difference.

    how much of a difference is there for output from a 12"btl to a 18",, i have a bl15 fully loaded and shes getting 900 rms, im debating on getting a btl and sell my bl15 but it would cost a lot to buy the btl and get a huge amp for it. should i just buy a bigger amp for my bl or get the btl, if the btl is really that good it ill save up and get it what yall think thanks.

    I didnt know what to make the topic but u guys gotta see this. I plan on firing forward and came across this over at ROE and was shocked... Since by ear i am not going to hear low bass as good as if i fired back, and anything over 60hz is nonsense coming out of a sub to me anyway, am i reading that right? It sucks that they didn't have a BL in that test too but i am rather shocked at a comparison of the q to the btl with double the power difference. I'm still wanting a BL but i noticed according to this chart, right at Fs of the BTL, it drops its output by a noticeable amount. 10hz in either direction it picks it back up. I want a 10" bl but it resonates right around wh…

    Are these parameters taken on the subs when they are freshly new or taken when the suspension has loosened up? And I am referring to Fi subs.

    yeah. well I'm having a hard time getting the proper size enclosure setup for what i want to install in the future. so being that i have about 3k in power for my subs i was considering on taking up a BTL 15" now, i truly love my XXX and i love the low end of them but my downfall on them is the lack of upper frequencies. now my only other options that are in mind with my 2 XXX's is running them sealed. they will be 15's. (lol i can't use 12's.) well. i also feel that it's time to try something new. seeing all the good things that Fi has to offer and with the BTL i was taking this into consideration. with tuning up in 33-35hz i would assume it would hit some of the upper fr…

    Alright they don't answer E- Mails at the sight. I'm wondering if my purchase is going to be this way? I will soon be ordering 1 of 2 BTL 18's and want it to go smoothly. It should money talks right?...lol I want D1's, daily, no 3rd magnet, and where does the cooling cancel the other out? Just choose the chamfer right? These will run at 2000 just for daily driving and that friendly slug fest!
