Fi Technical

can someone give my box measurements a once over and tell me if this is going to work,I have 7.49 cu.ft. and i am going to make a box for two fifteen's . I am going to use either the Q's or bl's , the box is going to be ported useing psp flare ports 4"x 17" four of them at this length. is this going to be enough room and are the amount of ports correct to tune this box to 28hz.. this is for a daily driver I listen mostly to rap and R&b. If this doesn't sound right could some one give me some direction, this is my first box build and i want to get it right. any help would be graetly appreciated thanks.

whats up guys. i need to figure out some dimensions for the btl 18" sub so i can fit it in my 1962 chevy belair. any adice would be greatly appreciated

i have a 15 fi bl with cooling,daily, universal and it keeps on making a scary noise, it sounds like someone is scraping the terminals of a 9v battery on the leads of the subwoofer, and its scaring the out of me, i just got the sub Friday (1/16/09) and it wasn't doing it at first please help!

Today i finished building my box for my Bl 18. Its 9.5cuft with 146sq in. of port tuned to 33hz. It is going to go in my back seat of my 1984 cutlas supreme. My amp is a AQ 1200. Anybody got an idea of what i should expect with this setup? any comments are appreciated

What can i do to stop the screws from coming out the box holding the sub in

Hi, i just have this dilemma on what to tune my box to for my Fi BL 10 going on the trunk of a Sedan i saw in the sticky topic that 32hz is the optimal tuning, does that also apply for Sedans? cause i just had this thought that tuning it to 32hz might not give much punch anymore and will only get loud on lows, is 34-35hz better for a Sedan? Thanks in Advance! -Carlo

I am pretty sure I have neither the room or the amp for 2 of the Qs but I am getting 2 of em for $260 If I did want to change amps and run 2 Q12s, how much air space would I need to do them justice in a sealed enclosure? I have started to consider using both after a day to think about it. Initially I was only going to use 1. So, I guess I have 3 questions enclosure space for 2 sealed enclosure space for 1 ported enclosure space for 1 sealed Thanks for any and all help Jman Oh, the car is my 2001 Trans Am, I kinda want to use the space available on top of the gas tank in the rear hatch and get my ttop space back. If not familiar with the hatch in a 4th gen f-body, chec…

Hey everybody I have a Fi Bl D2 and i want it to play off a 1 ohm load off a RF P1000-1BD. I have and idea on how to do it but i need to be sure...

Hi, i'm Patrick from Germany and i just ordered a Fi BTL 15 with Cooling and HiXM Coil for daily driver. The BTL replaces my old RE SX 15 wich i operated in a aprox. 4,7 cubes box, tuned to 35 Hz.... My problem now is that i don't know how to build a enclosure for the BTL because i usually calculated everything with Win ISD but this doesnt work with the btls TSP'S... Can you help me or say what i have to build. Max dimentions are: width: 93 cm or 36,61 inch height: 45 cm or 17.72 inch depth: more than 100cm or 40 inch I'm running it with a RF T20001bd and kinetik batts.. I hear lots of young jeezy and gucci mane... My Peak with the SX was 141,9 with 45hz on Termlab, hope…

If anyone has tried this could you tell me what you think of it? I'm trying to build a wall that is all funky shaped. Trying to smash 4 18's into a Ford Explorer. found this program but would just like to know if anyone else has used and what you think of it. The bottom is 37" deep x 52" wide then go to 33" deep x 18.5 " high. Top is 33" deep x 52" wide 18.5" high Grand total of 37" tall x 52" wide and the depth. Trying to utilize every bit of room I can so I can still have room for batteries and amps. Plus the ports gotta go in there to. Any help on any other programs or any ideas would be appreciated. Got it drawn out on paper. Kinda to scale it down to where it will …

ok wat up guys i just ordererd a 15" bl flly loaded BUT i chose the extreme lead option and wasnt aware that this was for spl applications only and not for daily my question is what is going to happen if i run this option daily? my setup is 92 hatchbak mustang with a brutus hifionics 1606d and da bl 15" ,Thanks

what kind of enclosure am i looking for? i have a 1995 lumina, and now im seeing what kind of box i should go for. ( i have a very large trunk. ) i think my MTX JH55 is a 4 cube box. and i still have room for a little more, could someone post the exact and best enclosure for the FI BL 15? and is there any very good box builder for xp or vista? also could i get exact specs for the 15bl with cooling, daily, universal, and a red dustcap. ALSO would a hifonics 1200ixd amp wire at 1 ohm be ok to power this amazing sub?

Need to recone my 12Q i bounced a screw threw it drilling it down. rip in the rubber

I just popped my FI cherry () and bought a FI 15 with cooling, daily, universal, and a red dustcap what kind of enclosure am i looking for? i have a 1995 lumina, and now im seeing what kind of box i should go for. ( i have a very large trunk. ) i think my MTX JH55 is a 4 cube box. and i still have room for a little more, could someone post the exact and best enclosure for the FI BL 15 thank you in advanced -Julian

Just made a topic so you don't have to scroll through pages to find it... Ok first things first. The test was done in my car with my equipment (in signature). The box is 4.5 cubic feet net tuned to 32 hz with 57.25 in^2 of port area. Subs: 15" Havoc and 15" Q with BP option (both have embedded tinsels) Yummy pics: Here are TermLab results... Outlaw style (at the kick, both windows open) Q: Havoc: Legal (sealed up at the dash) Q: Havoc: Listening experience: To tell you the truth, unless you are a freaking machine, I doubt you would be able to tell the difference between these two drivers under the exact same circumstances. Now everything I am saying is dealing wit…

Am using two Q 15s but in to seperate cambers that are in 2.9-3.0 cuft enclosures after all displacement, is this too small?. Would it be better to use a single or a dual camber? I was told that the single would hit harder. What do you guys think? The box is tune to 30Hz using a port that is 2 X 14 and 16.75 inches long. Am still in da building stages so i can change some things just alittle if its necessary.

I've built boxes for at least 15 years. But, i've never built a ported box like this. This box is gonna be 31.18 cubic ft 52 in wide x 37 in tall x 28 in deep. Trying to figure out how to fit all the subs and where to put the port. My guesstimations on the port size would be 15 in x 20 in and port length would be 8.13394050 ??????????I put the width and height in on a port calculator and it comes up with this length. What is that? I don't understand the length part. Don't even know if I can make a port hole that size with those subs in there. I was thinking of slotting the port either at top and bottom or on the sides. Sides would be better i'd have more room. I've ne…

anyone used there Q in a sealed box then switched to a low tuned ported 'round 29-30 hz or vice-vesa ported then sealed? if so how did it sound and the pros and cons. besides the ported being louder. was thinking of using a single 15 ported tuned low. but if sealed is more musical or sounds better ,can i make up the ouput loss by using 2 sealed

I have 2 rockford P2 15" d on a TMA amplifier 500.1 in a 4.5 Cu. Ft. Box ported. I'm in the process to get 2 Bl 12" d2 and I need the know if the HIFONICS BRUTUS BXi2608D will be a good option (cheap one) in a 5.0Cu. Ft. This will go in the trunk of a Toyota Yaris 5 door. My budget is pretty tight, that the main reason why I decided the BXi2608D. Here are the pics of my trunk Visit My Website

Is a 2.9-3.0 cuft.(after all displacements) to small of a ported enclosure for the Fi Q?

a americanbass 500.1 move 2 BTL 18''in a box 13cf tunin to 33hz only daily use thanks

Am planning on using the Hifonics BXi2008 on 2 15 Fi Q's, would BP be necessary?

Well i decided to see if my 15" Fi BL is working before i get my box so i installed it without the box... I wired it parallel and when i turned my car on to play some music I would say about 1 min smoke started to come out ... it wasnt very much smoke but i need to know if this is normal for a new sub to do that.. also the sub was getting hot... what could be the probelm??? :

I have the box in the pic below and I don't believe it's gonna be the best for my Q! I want the most output possible! I'm thinking around 2.5 cuft net with the port around 30 Hz! I have a Rockford Power 1001BD stable @ 2 ohms. I listen to all types of music but love really low notes!! If someone could tell me the dimensions of a box with port dimensions it would REALLY HELP ME ALOT!!! Or, if you have other recommendations!!! Thanks!!!

look at the cooling channel around the one o'clock position, it isnt lined up but all the rest are! is this normal? if not any performance issues from this?? thanks
