  1. A friend of mine sold one of his 2 Xcons 15". He wants to change to BTL N2. He is ready to buy the first BTL. He will buy the second as soon as he sells the second Xcon. So I need a quote for one BTL N2 15" D1 fully loaded. We'll tell you the color for the dustcap later. Here is the adress : RUE DE LA DORSALE RES AIGUE MARINE; APT 33. BAT A1 97200 FORT-DE-FRANCE MARTINIQUE (FWI) I've already bought a 12" BTL N2 D2 from you in january this year, and will probably make some more purchases from you. I know it's not fun to fill all those international custom papers, but we love your subs ! Sorry !!!

    Ok so everyone keeps telling me to go get the big 3 upgrade done cuz its a pretty simple way to relieve stress from numerous things. Ok so i go to my local shop today to get a quote and learn a lil more about what it takes to do it. The guy comes out and looks at my car and i tell him the 3 wires that i want to upgrade to 0g. so he comes in and starts crunching numbers on his calculator and comes up with a price of $263??? I almost walked out of the store right there haha but all the stuff was good quallity. all was RF power and ground wires and new terminals and rings and the whole 9 yards. but nobody every told me that i would need all this stuff for a big 3 upgrade.

    Well im not sure what to choose SPL or Daily on a BTL. I want to find a sub that i can Use for Daily and SPL. Does the SPL setting sound like complete ass on music or is it not to bad? Is the daily still pretty good for competing? My woofer is great for daily but not good for competing unless i buy another since its dual 6 ohm. and im a single set up guy. Anyone compete with the daily setting? Anyone listen to music with the SPL setting? thanks

    so i have decided to go with fi subs and audique amps for my next setup. it will be going in a 99 grand prix gtp. budget is 1500 for the bass setup. it will be playing mostly hard rock and metal, with a little rap on the side. goals for this system are mostly output, i obviously don't want it to sound like complete crap, but the main goal is output. also this is my daily driver, no comps for me. so after a little background info on what i'm looking for, back to the root question... which setup would have more output? option 1: 4 fi ssd 12's running on an audioque 3500 option 2: 2 fi btl 12's running on 2 audioque 2200 plan was to go ported to 33 hz on either option. opt…

    hey guys i need some help. i have a FI BL 15 fully loaded for daily for over a year now, never been pushed to it limit, running on about 1200watts, never turned the gain on the amp past the 75% ish mark and never had the receiver on max volume. it seems that some of the coppering windeings around the coil may have slightly seperated. the copper coil itself looks like brand new still not scorched at all from what i can see. i get no audio at all of the woofer , its just completly dead... : ( i loved that woofer too is there any reason y that would happen..? are there maybe any cheep fixes because unfortunatly i dont have the money to get a replacement at the moment. t…

    So I get this e-mail saying the status of the order I placed on Nov-30 has changed. The item has shipped. Pretty fhawking cool I thought, and went on my merry way. I figured it'd come some time after X-mas. Later in the day, I was out in the garage getting ready to do an oil change when the FedEx truck pulls up. WTF!? Sho nuff, the delivery man drops this off: No way, I just got the email, I thought to myself... Well I guess the automated Fi customer update system is still set to BTL UFO order fulfillment schedule. On a side note it looks like FedEx is on a roll with punching holes in the sides of boxes. Spoiler Alert! Everything checked out fine. On to the pic…

    Thanks to Godsmack, I found a new place to go which is much much cheaper than the place i would normally go to and although its longer millage wise, its a short trip time wise and much easie to get to as its in podunk and not the middle of a city. So i set up an appointment for tomorrow.. I just have a couple questions... What tones should I bring? Sine waves or what have you.. And do you guys normally do it with your speaker amp off or on?

    First time Fi buyer! Just finished building and installing my new box for my SSD. Everything is ready to go except..... no subwoofer. I was told by Nick within the past two weeks that it would ship around last friday. Status on the website has said "awaiting fulfillment" for the past 16 business days. Just really anxious to get this thing. People say they are definitely worth the wait, but I have never heard one before, and don't want to finally get this thing and be "not so impressed" 2.3 (net) cubes tuned about 35hz with roughly 35 sq.in of port. will be running on a p1000.1bd. My hopes are high and don't want them to be crushed after this long wait. Any idea o…

    hi i'm an old guy, got a fi q15 on an saz 1500d in my suv. my son wants to go to sound comps, so i figured on getting another saz1500d to stap and getting a btl for the weekends. don't need to win but want to at least be competitive enough to keep his interest and make it worth the effort so how much difference will the average user find between the old 2 slug btl and the new 1 slug ? and is the difference enough that i realy should be looking for a one slug. i get that they booth are going to be crazy but on the meter does it matter that much ? i've heard pepole say it wasn't worth upgrading but i don't own either yet . thanks

    This is how it worked out... 28.6 pounds = 12" Q weight. 28.6 pounds = 12 972.7418 grams 15 grams per CD If you do the math you get 864.849453333333 = 865 CD’s. Tommy guessed 864 CD's... The next closest one was JakeTheSnake with 878 CDs Congrats to Tommy! Shoot me an email with your address and we'll get a sub built up for you how you want it. I've got a new game that i'm going to start in the next few weeks that I think all of you will enjoy.

    Hey guys, First of all Happy new year to everyone @ Fi Car Audio. It was a great year with your products and hope it was a great year in sales for you. Down to business, I have aquired an RE XXX v3 motor from a craigslist sale. (paid 150 for it) Its spiders were off of the landing and luckily no one who had the sub knew that was the problem, Hopefully I can glue them down and the coil didn't rub too much. I see you guys have a recone option for RE 3x, guessing thats the xxx you just cant use the name for copyright purposes. It says that the recones are good for 2005 models and up, but I have a XXX motor that uses XBL^2 technology (I think its 2006 model). Im guessin…

    For people that have purchased products from Fi, particularly there Q 18 D1 with the BP option, how long did it take from purchase to receive your subwoofer. I know Fi is a good company and greatly approve of there products but I am getting fed up! I bought 1 Q 18 w/ the BP option on the 22nd of last month. I received a receipt when I bought it but never a confirmation. So I then emailed them and they sent me a confirmation. So I was happy
