General Fi

hi i need some help picking an fi sub for my amp i have a shift 1000rms 2000max at 1ohm i keep blowing subs and i want an fi sub can some one help me choose one that wont blow plus i want one that will shake the windows witch one would you recomend for playing loud and for long pereods of time?

I know, I know there is no definite answer at all to this question. Again I know!!! LOLOL Currently running a 15" BL w/ a RF T10001BD amp. Ok loud not the greatest but the best I can do with my limited trunk space of a scion tc. I whined before here about loosing my trunk space currently! I am sitting here and out the corner of my eye sits a 12" RE SX sub that I just reconed with Fi parts. Originally with that RE SX sub it was in a 2.0cuft box tuned to 32hz and I hit 139db with a TL mic (amp running at 2ohm so roughly 900-1000watts). With my current box with that 15" it sits in a 3.5cuft box, and I don't have my spare tire anymore or any trunk space! With the 15" …

I'm gonna be ordering 2 of the Q15's dual 2 ohms fully loaded, and wiring them both to a AQ2200D, and I want to know what would be the best enclosure I can build for SQ? I've heard sealed is the best for SQ, and aside from that the carpenter building the box for me doesn't know anything about tuning a box, so i'm pretty sure ported or bandpass is out of the question. Would I be right to assume if I use the max 4^3 feet per woofer it would hit the deep note better? If so, what would be the best way to put both of those into a 43inx40inx17 (LengthXWidthxDepth). I believe i'm gonna mount them from the top unless someone could provide a good option that would allow for otherw…

is there a certain distance the driver wants to be from the back of the enclosure or is it fine anywhere as long as the correct amount of volume inside the box is present? also, is there any advantage to buying a dual voice coil sub over a single voice coil?

I just purchased a Rockford Fosgate Power 1000. I will be purchasing a Jeep Wrangler unlimited and the amp and 1 sub will go in. Question: What fi 10 sub would work best with the 1000.I just would like one sub sealed or ported, still have to leave room for the wife and kid. http://ampguts.realmofexcursion.com/Rockfo...000_25_To_LIFE/ Thanks

so around this christmas im debating on wether 1 btl 18 or 2 bl 18's would be louder, i want LOUD. I know that the btl is fi's loudest sub but 2 18's have more cone area, ill be running 1 saz3000D either way i go. what do yall think?

I was wanting to get a Q but then I looked at the new BL and it looked pretty much the same. But do they have the same SQ? I would put the options of cooling, flatwind, and universal.

i placed an order last night but the paypal said some funny stuff i was wondering if i could get a number to call fi at?????

fi btl 18 daily or spl ??

I want a sub that can be wired for 1ohm I ordered dual 1ohm 15 q with bp did i mess up?

Hi i'm in the process of building my box for the 15" BTL, I wanna know how long the port will have to be to have a tuning of 32hz. My dimensions are 40 x 20 x 20 with double bracing 3/4" MDF. i did the math and with the double bracing, the internal volume is roughly 7.5 cubes. I wanna know how long the port will have to be at 4", 5" and 6" tall. Thx guys, Fi rocks

i have just bought two 15 fi bl's daul 2 used on cl. i knew one was going to need a recone so am planning on doing both. I'm running a mtx 81000d to one in a ported box i threw together just to see what each one sounded like box is little over 3 1/2 cubes, an tuned at 32. i get a clipping/slapping sound from the speaker when i turn my gain up past 1/2 way with the vol turned up on the head unit. an (h.u. settings are flat). question: could i just be clipping it? does anyone else get a leed noise? how can i tell what year it is for recone purpose? Thank you for your help any thing i may have left just ask doogie

I am waiting on a reply from Nick. I don't see to many people reconing an ssd. How much is a recone kit for an ssd. I need to change to D2's instead of my D1's. I picked up another Zapco Studio 500 and need 4ohm a woofer. Can it have the copper coils and or the flatwound coil on this go around with a stock motor? Is it a kit or just a cone? you know, does it come with glue and shims to locate the coil in the gap, thats sort of stuff. thanks

my alternater is http://www.autozone.com/selectedZip,78570/...g/selectZip.htm would that be a good alt to power my system...that is around 2k...

does anyone know how stable a diamond audio d3 800.1 is at 1 ohm? running a fi q 12" with dual 2 ohm and bp?

I'm looking to get a price quote for a recone for an Ascendant Audio Avalanche 12. Can anyone help me out?

And I can not wait to see them.

box is sealed each sub gets 2.3qf will get 2nd sub soon.. or should i go with single box 4.3 qf and a single BL ?? i like my hair to shake its relaxing.. but was wondering if 2 fiq 15s will sound louder and clean bass vs 1 15bl on 4.3qf.. i have a pretty good front stage.

Im pretty sure ive got a blown Avalanche. It slightly vibrates when powered, starts to smell, and makes a screaching sound at time. Anyways how much is it to reconed, its a 12? How much if i get a larger basket and get it reconed to a 15 or 18?

I need to re-cone the old SSD(Dual 1) in the GF's car, it finally let go today. Hit me back with a quote when you get a chance.

Hey i have a Fi BL 15" and i was wondering for my amp kit do i need to upgrade it. i havent yet to install the sub yet cause im scared my 4guage rockford amp kit wont handle the sub and might jack it up..will it..or do i need a 1/0 amp kit?? will a 4guage work or should i rip out the 4 guage? and if i need a 1/0 can i keep the existing ground cable and remote wire or do i need to change those out to?? thanks..and sorry for so many questions!!! -Ryan

Well all im waiting on is the second d3100 which ill have next weekend and im calling ohio gen for an alt right after i post this. and yeah those are audiopipe 30001d's but they are the newer model cea rated ones. i know not the cleanest power but should slam pretty nice. crap i forgot to throw in pics of the extra decals and fi hat i got with my 2nd sub since i waited patiently . I thought it was a pretty cool gesture, thanks fi.

I have an 89 Mercury Tracer, I have 7.7 cubic ft (internal volume) {39 in W, 23 in H, 18 in D} I would like the box to be tuned to about 32 HZ. I will be running about 3500 watts to the sub. any help would be appreciated, I do not know that much about tuning an enclosure.

nice little sub here. these were ordered for a friend of mine to replace some old old old kenwoods in a pre-fab bandpass box. i don't know how well they would do in them but i'm sure it would be pretty good. here are a few pics. i won't be able to give a review till monday or tuesday as i'm going up to sarasota tonight, then orlando tomorrow, then miami on sat, then back home. so yeah. thanks Fi.

i gest orded my first btl 18 im going to put in 8cuft box tuned to 30hz fith a usamps2000hc to it what do btl users thank
