lookin to pick up a q motor. how much would a recone be?

hey nick you have time to start a chat about some amps for the btl's? i sent you an e-mail under the name dbanner... Thanks, Brock

Hey guys, I know you guys are super busy but I got a few ??'s for you. I'm going to be buying either a 15" or 18" BTL in the next 2-3 days, but I came across a used 18" BTL with a cracked basket. The part that is cracked is the part that the surround is glued to. They are very small. It was juts reconed and the tinsels arent even soldered on yet. My question is, if i were to replace the basket, would i have to cut the spider therefore needing another recone, or can I remove the cone without damage? If I cant do it with out damaging it, Can you tell me how much a new 18" basket and recone is? and also how much a 15" basket and recone would be? Thanks for your time and hel…

I've sent my sub in to get reconed over a month ago and on n the 2nd of this month I sent an email wondering the status on my sub and when it should be shipping. All I'm wanting is an update or status of my sub because I have not gotten any response since the 2nd and I have sent 2 more emails since then and still no reply. I've seen many other posts about how Fi is always busy and they'll respond, but I need a little more communication than this. Order number is #1259 Thanks.

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.

Ok, I got home this morning to see a sticker from the fedex guy because no one was home. Do you guys know if they ship UPS or fedex? Im trying to figure it out before I drive 20 miles to the fedex warehouse lol. Thanks

Hey I'm just wondering when you guys swithced from one big magnet to 4 pie shapped magnet like on the new RE XXX's? Is thier any increase in power handling, and is thier anything internaly diff with them? Can they be ran with another new BTL that has the old style single magnet? Heres some pics not my sub I seen it on another forum. I remember some subs having pie shapped wedges between the basket and motor was that the cooling before and you switched to this or was that just a spacer for more excursion because some times i seen them on them and some times i dont.

scott i will email you with all the details, just wanted to give you a heads up. need to talk to you before friday.

i was wondering if anyone knows what option meade has on his 18" btl's. dual one or dual two ohm, spl or daily? thanks!

Two (2) Questions: 1) Is the Fi websie the only place you can buy Fi Subs? 2) If am supplying 2000 watts (Hifonics BXi2008D) to (2) 15 SSD, would it be better to inculde the flatwind or the copper coil feather on these subs? Thanks

hey i recently recieved my btl 15" and installed it in the box that i designed and built its a 4.4 cube slot port box tuned to 34hz and i have it on my 1500.1bd running about 1600 watts rms and i took a few videos earlier and when i was done i noticed that the cone was really hot on it....not so hot you couldnt keep your finger on it but it was pretty damn hot.....why is this i was planning on getting another 1500.1bd and strapping them......is the one 1500.1bd enough for it i thought these things were built for power

how do i upload a pic of my sub on here all i get are http things and its on my computer ?? is there a special way i dont know about??

I've e-mailed you twice about reconing to 15s and haven't heard back from you at all...

I emailed you guys about getting a recone done for a older style 12" BTL sub. I needed a broken lead tinsel fixed and the dustcap replaced but Nick said that you guys were going to do a full recone anyways. Nick was emailing back for a couple of emails and then he just stopped without giving me a price quote or address to send the sub and how to pay for it. I have emailed every email associated with Fi already. Nick email me back please. my email is [email protected]. I don't know if your spam filter had put my email in the spam folder or what but I have not heard back from you since. I have checked my spam folder and inbox and no new emails from Fi. Thanks. Phi

What new speakers are coming out? It has been saying new lines coming soon for quit awhile now.

Shawn is selling three 12" X's first and foremost Scott....DO you have the parts to build me a fourth one in a Dual 4ohm config? I know at one point you said the parts were going to be rolled into AA and if I cant get a fourth then my plans will change. If by chance you have a fourth how much space do these subs require ported? how small of a box I could get away with? I also am willing to use aero ports if that will cut down on size any. Will I see better bass race results with four 12" X's as opposed to two 12" SSD's running off the same 1500 watt amp? Amp will be determined once I choose the subs but I am looking at the Kicker ZX series. I was going to go with the Q's …

Does anyone have the parameters for the older 15" BTL's?

Just wanted to say thanks for taking my call the other night. I know you were at SBN. The 12" MT recone worked well and is taking a beating. Thanks again! Justin Tillery

I am almost done my setup on my corolla 98 and I just wanted to thank everyone in these forums for helping me put this thing together. I'm running a fully loaded bl 15 off a sundown saz 1500d (3.7 cubes net volume), i have 4 cdt cl series components with the upgraded tweets, my headunit is an alpine 9886 and an sax 100.2 should be here through the mail this week (temporarily while sax 100.4 become available) all my wires and fuses are from knukoncepts. I have never owned a soundsystem myself,but I have many friends who have them and just this year i caved in and decided i needed to buy a top notch soundsystem without paying big dollars for a brand name. I've been slowly p…

Just wanted to say that Nicks CS is very good. I shot him 2 emails yesterday asking about recones, and he got back to me within an hour, and has been answering all my questions. So......... GJ NICK!!!

I am curious what some of you are getting in a sealed setup with you Q's...my wife is kinda wanting a fairly loud setup (loud in the sense of volume, not db output)...I guess the term would be considered LSQ. Well, she wants to know what kind of numbers your subs are putting up in a sealed setup. Thank You

I have a 2004 GS300 and my trunk is sealed off from the cabin, and have never owned a car that seats didnt fold down and this cars' doesnt and doesnt have a passthrough through the rear arm rest either.. So this may be a stupid question but will i get enough bass in the cabin of my car? I plan on ordering a 12'' Fi BL dual 2ohm ported probably at 32hz.. 1000w at 1ohm.. Thanks

well, i got on fi site to order my ssd 18's, and noticed first that there was no charge now for the cooling option on the bl's. When did they change it, and does anybody know if they have the magnets or whatever they were waiting on for the BL's? I may be able to just go ahead and get the BL now, well order one now and one in couple weeks. thanks

I wasn't quite sure where to post this so I will just do it here. I have been working on a huge research paper for school regarding some topics in math. I am sure some of you remember me asking questions earlier. At first I was going to leave everything silent, but have decided against that just in case several professors wonder what sub I used. So, would it be okay if I printed your companies name and the findings in my paper. All the paper covers is designing ported enclosures, how to design them, the math involved, etc. It goes into no detail at all about the actual build of your sub or any other technical issues. Thanks Mathman
