General Fi

Fi is shown in another featured vehicle in the latest issue of Car Audio and Electronics! This time in a SQ car. Yes its mine

ok... so i know everyone has already seen one before but everyone also knows when you get it in the mail all you want to do is show it off. incredibly sexy, dont hate. just love. 15" D1 BTL cooling, 3rd mag, hixm coil, daily. In 6.5 cube ported box with internal spine bracing. 5 cubes after sub, port, and bracing displacement tuned to 39hz. thanks to Josh Salrin at www.finecustomworks.com

right now, my set-up is what i got in my sig... i was thinking about getting another ssd. i was lookin for reasonable priced amps that could power two ssd 12"s. i was looking at the SPL DK-3400D and the SPL FX1-5500D. It says their THD at Rated RMS Power 0.50%... I read that good amps have <.1% THD... Is .4% difference that much? And I know that the rms wattage is a little different but these two amps are fairly close in price, why is that?

got mt box cut out today !!! tomorrow start puttin it together.. glue, staples, screws, liquid nails..ect.... used ultralight mdf this time.. that chit is sooo light !!!! well ill try to post some pics.... oh yeah.. my build is gonna be 18-fi ssd 15's.....sealed clamshell

As it states, this is just something I am curious to see. All would be in the optimum enclosures and tuned appropriately. I am curious how many pick sealed vs ported, size of the subs, etc. Again, this is all subjective and I am doing this out of curiousity to find out what the majority of you audiophiles would really go with. Lets say 1k watts per sub. optimum enclosure. trunk install. I am tryin to get ideas of what a general Fi user loves before I even start thinkin of my next setup.

any suggestions on an amp that costs around 5 or $600 dollars to power 4 18"SSDs

Hi I was wodering how much a 18" basket and Gasket would cost shipped to 30093

Hey Scott and/or Nick. So far you guys have been great regarding communication, but I sent in a 15'' BL with a cracked magnet (First in Fi History!) and I was told I would have a new one shipped out shortly. I was just curious on the status of that new sub? Thanks for your time. Weston

im lookin for one 18" sub, ive got plenty of power to push either the BTL or BL, so power isnt an issue, im lookin for a daily sub thats good for rock or rap, would the daily BTL be alright for pounding for bout 10 to 15 mins cuz i usually only listen to music on my way to work or on my way home, other than that im stuck at the house, or should i stick with the BL?

I need help deciding which amp i should get... i used to run the soundstream xxx6500 (which ive been told only does about 2700 @ 12v and 1ohm) on my 2 15" BTLs (dual .7) but i broke my box.... so next week they are completely redoing it to make it much stronger. but since im redoing that, im going to just uppppp the power. the sounstream is sold.... now for my amp choices i can either get: (2) opti4000ds and run them at 2ohm....doing right about 3000rms per sub (which was my goal) i know this amp is JUST like the SS, but its regulated so it should do more power on 12v as opposed to the SS. or i can get (1) AB500.1 which will do about 4700rms and costs about $200 less. the…

I plan on purchasing an Fi bl 15 and I am going to put about 1500 watts to it. What options do I need to purchase with this sub?

Scotty poo...I emailed you about a recone Email was from justin tillery. Please email me back I am in a hurrayz...Dont make me call your cell phone. Last time I did that you were partying at SBN lol.

I posted here since I figured more than one person probably has a blown one so I may help answer for the next guy . anyway, my buddy blew his assasin 10" and I was wondering if we could get a recone kit instead of ship the sub in? don't think the sub is worth that much lol

im looking to purchase either 2 BL 18's or 2 MTX T9515-44 15's im not sure what amp to get, iwas thinkin on going with autotek but ive heard people say they aint very stable, if not one of those, what would be a good amp to run those subs?

I am going to purchase a 15" Fi BL... mobileman is going to make me an enclosure roughly 3.8ft3 tuned at 30hz. i am going to power it with a cadence txa1000d which puts out 1000watts at 13.8 volts. what options should i get for this subwoofer? i want it to be as loud as possible with the tuning and amp i have. i honestly don't know what the options even mean.... P chmafer, cooling, flatwind, etc... etc... could someone explain the options to me? thanks.

I wanting to run 2 12" Qs in a sealed box under the seat of my 07 crew cab sierra Theyll have about 1cu ft of air space each. Im wondering if the SSDs would be better for this type of enclosure or what? Ill be running a RF Power 800a2 for right now and upgrading later to probably a RF T15002

8 Fi BTL 18's.......you know the deal this might give you a feel just by looking at them how loud it is zVobtkB3H7A i do believe those are the first real victims since they were sealed up inside with me

whatup folks i was hoping someone can help me i just looked into the fi website and found the ssd12's. whats confusing me is the different options. here is my setup alpine cd/mp3, audiocontrol3.1, audiocontrol overdrive, and us amps400 rated 1200-1400@2ohms. here is the question can a pair of ssd 12's handle this without costly mods? i am not a competitor but i do like to pound sometimes without fear. i really want those ssd's but i dont want to spend 400 dollars just to have to spend nearly 200 more just to get mods. this is not a daily driver so it they wont be abused. i listen to everything from sade to tool to miles davis. they will be in the trunk of a 74 mercedes a…

i just want to let the people at FI and all you bass heads know that this forum is awesome. the people here are a lot nicer so far and i get quick and knowledgable answers to my questions( and there will be more) and most of all i havent seen any of the petty bickering and put downs that i see on another popular excursion forum. i am glad i found this place. see now ive gone and gotten all emo on ya.

I received my Q12 last week and finally had sometime this weekend to install it. It's in a 1995 Ford Thunderbird in a ported enclosure tuned to 32hz. It's running off a cadence TXA1000D. Door speakers are Infinity Kappa 682.7 (6x8 2ways...i know, i know...haha) and those are running off of a RF P400.4...Got everything hooked up sunday afternoon and all I have to say is "wow." I've owned a couple of other systems before, but this Q takes them all...hands down. It gets LOUD and still, it doesnt lose ANY quality! My roommate has to cover his ears when i crank it...(hes a girl though...haha) I've shown a couple of kids on campus who have "5000 watt" systems in their car…

I was wonderin if its possible to switch my 18" bl from dual 1 ohm to dual 2 ohm..if so how much you think scott will charge? thanks for all your help

How i could get some mid sized fi decals for my trucks back window, and also apparel?

How much would a 18" D1 fully loaded BTL recone cost shipped to 33027 before friday if i pay tomorrow.

You all might be wondering why I would post this in the Fi section, so i'll just let the pictures do the talking: So far, all panels have been cut and port areas have been painted. The plexi front panel will have a Fisher Custom logo CNC machined on it as well. To follow the build over on CA.com: http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=284556

ok i see all these people talkin about how they wire their stuff at .5 ohms. how does that work? i mean like on amps, the ohms are usually 4, 2, n 1. well im askin this because right now i got 1 dvc ssd 12" (bp n flatwound) with a hifonics amp powering 1200rms watts at 1ohm. i was thinking of getting another ssd, so that mean i would get an amp to power 2400rms watts. i looked at some of the wiring configurations on kicker n 12voltz website n it shows that i can only have them at 2 ohms or .5 ohms. at 2 ohms the amp i wanna get is kinda really outta the way money wise because at 1ohm it is a lot more than wat i need. so yea im just wondering how i could achieve the .5 ohm…
