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?

Ok so i dont know what to get. The one BTL 18 fully loaded that will be ran off of a SAZ-2000 Or a SAZ-3500. Or should i get the 2 BL fully loaded 18s ran off 2 SAZ-1500d.

I am pretty sure I will be running 4 Q's in my new setup. My big question....what are some good amps to match them up to. I was thinking about 2 amps allowing for 2 subs on one amp so if one amp died on me it would be cheaper to get a new amp. Here is what I was thinking so far: Kicker 2500's>>>allow about 1250 watts per Q (not sure how Kicker amps are, good price though ) RF 2000's>>>>>Love the look of these amps, but they are a little more costly. Sundown 3000>>>Afraid 1500 watts will be to much for a Q. Sexy amp though MTX Thunder Elite 4000>>>No clue at all about MTX, nice lookin amp, would have to run a 2 Ohm load. Any…

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

So i have had my btl for a while now and am very pleazed with it. I had a few questions though. 1) i currently have a saz 1500 d sundown to it and was wondering if i got a bigger amp (of course another sundown) if it would really be any difference. 2)what is the best way to tell the subsonic filter is set at because i think its around 34 hertz but i am conserned because of what i read about poorly set sub filters. thanks for the help

Hey just doing some window shopping looking for opitions for my amp hoping to ad Fi to my list I'm not looking to buy soon and I know alot can change in a company's line-up over a year but I treat car audio like my version of a fantiacy football league and I'll do builds in my head waiting to hit the lottery or my kids to graduate so I can have more toys... How I like my bass... Loud, Low, & Clean as posible I listen to just about everything but mostly rock and rap Car... not positive leaning toward a smaller hatchback like a honda civic or mini cooper, either way the space required for humans can be limited to the front seats and enough room for a suitca…

Hey guys, I am new to this forum. Been out of the car audio scene for quite awhile (i don't know what happened to elitecaraudio.com????). Anyway! My bro is looking around spending 180-220 per 15 (total of 2) and a decent amp (oh 200-300 maybe) I suggested the RE SE's or the FI SSD's and possibly a Soundstream or Orion amp? I am a fan of RE and if my memory serves me - Fi was started by a former worker of RE (steve?) Well thanks for your time and help!

Sent an email w/ the details. Thanks. Troy

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.

Heys guys im new to the forum and need some input. I'm ready to purchase a Fi sub and i really wanna try the BL 18". I currently have a Kicker ZX1000 rated at 1267 rms. I was thinking i would be underpowering the sub or maybe it'll sound good. You guys gotta any suggestions or opinions please reply. Oh and its goin in a caprice trunk if that matters. Thanks.

I ordered subs at the begenning of the week for my son. I was wondering if there was a timetable for these to be completed? No rush, just wondering if they would be in for Christmas? I checked their website for my order status, but it just said they were getting the payment from paypal? if anyone can help me i would greatly appreciate it!

How much is a 15" dual 1 Fully loaded BTL Recone + basket and gasket shipped to 33027

Is it possible for a lanzar 2000 to power 2 15" FI BL FL and still have 1100 watts to each? thanks

i was just on fi site,does anyone know it the 18fibtl have good sound quality.i know they hit hard and i am not in competitions but will they be good for every day listening ??

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!

does anyone have any suggestions on box size for 2 12" BTL's. it'll be in the bed of an s10....

when they coming out scott :P im sorry i had to, it was good seeing you and pol again, and nice meeting chris i hope you guys finish up his vehicle soon, did you guys get out of houston before the rain hit?

Pretty much, I just want to get loud, and possibly enter in SPL competitions. I also like showing off to, and making my system be heard from many blocks away. My possible setups, let me know which is …

i just ordered my 12'' Q w/ the Bp option. I have a hifonics bxi1208d and i was wondering if the sub is going to take more power now that i got the option. I mean the option was free so i thought why the heck not. Is it going to be underpowered? I know hifonics is overrated but i dont have the cash for sundown, audioque, ect. thanks for the help!!

5480 Cameron St #107 Las Vegas NV 89118 and do i make the mo out to fi car audio or scott?

Well, I am making my own "Fi Car Audio" decals for my windows and I need a pretty big copy of the Fi logo. The decal is 6x4 inches. Scott can you give me a copy of a big sized one?

The dude wanted something different, doesnt care anything about sq really, and definately doesnt care much about spl. He just wanted it to be loud and look good doing it. Hes going to be running an orion 2500d. We hooked it up to mine tonight just after we got done and are going to have to use alot of althread, this thing flexx's like a mother. But it did turn out looking good! Just for you guys info, its an 18"

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that a package soon would be there. Everyone was nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of Subwoofers danced in their heads. To awake in the morning to a box sealed with tape, and inside a woofer that really sounds great. Merry Christmas to everyone at Fi

I plan on doing 5.75 3^ft after displacement sealed enclosure on 1000wrms. Any and all critisism welcome aswell as opinions. Please be brutally honest, I'm a big boy no harm no foul. This will be going into a ford escort hatch
