Fi Technical

Without going over my windows and taking the whole back up, i have 40" D x 46" W x 22" H, which is 11.8 cubes gross, will that be enough for 2 BL 18's? It says to use 5-10 cubes each, thats a wide range, i guess depending on power to them mostly. I will be running 2 saz1500d's strapped to them. I have more room than that if needed, just want to leave a little space for batteries and amps.

Need them in dual .7 Shipped to 32765 - Oviedo, FL

Ok so i dont have much room in my car (well is a van lol) i have like 17" form my very back seat to the back window. Is that enough room for 2 15"s? I can move the seat forward like 7-8 inches if not more then i would have to take out the middle seat i would do that if its nessacery. So i will take pictures soon and post them so you guys can help me out tell me what to do. Im kinda new at this stuff so be nice. Lol

***FIRST*** I have a 15" fully loaded btl. the box its in is pretty big its 5 cubes. it has dual ports with sub and ports firing forward. i think the ports together is 80 sq inshes of port. the speaker is centered in the box with the ports on the ends of each side. just curious but would a box of the same size with a single port with sub in center or on the end with both firing forward be louder or the same. my video is posted on you tube and people are telling me it would be louder with a single port then dual. ***SECOND*** i am running mt btl with stock electrical alt, battery , and chitty 4 guage wire. no big 3. i have a ssl soundstorm 4000.1 mono amp. i have heard th…

I have a 15" Soundsplinter RL-p thats in need of a recone. Sub works fine, just the cone is starting to seperate from the surround. Tryed CA glue and it worked well for a while, but its coming lose again. I was wondering if a recone was possible for this sub. BTW, I sent a email to Nick a few weeks ago, but didnt get a response, so I decided to make this thread to possible get a solution. Thanks.

The car is a 2001 chevy blazer(SUV). I dont want to take up my whole cargo space for this single subwoofer. I dont know wheather to go with sealed or ported, what would be the pros and cons. Would anyone know an estimated demension size(hight,width,dept) i would be expecting to get with either ported or sealed. THNX alot

Hey guys, i need another recone for my MT. Im looking for dual 1.4, optimized for use with 2 powerbass xa3000d's. I want stiff but not super stiff, i was thinking quad spider, 2 stiff, 2 med stacked alternatly, with heavy duty tinsel. If you guys have another idea im open to it. Lemme know please need it asap. BTW itll be shipped to ontario canada.

How much power should i put on a BTL 18 if i plan on running it for fairly decent lengths of time, 15-30min, at high volume. Is 4.5kw too much for that kinda usage... It'll be in a rather tight ported box

Thinking about switching up from my 15 BTL to 2 Qs 15... Would I see any huge difference in loudness... I mean the BTL is god awful loud but I'm always wondering. Trying to figure how to fit everything back there the two dekas, 2 1500ds and a 100.4. Thinkin 7 cubes @ 30 hz.

I was wondering if I can run my friend's Fi Q in my box that is 4.5 cu ft tuned 32? It has BP option, and I would be running about 1000 watts to it. Would the sub be fine as long as I am responsible?

Ok I read the options page and I understand it pretty well. My question is I know I need to get one of the cooling options on the sub but which one? The sub will be used for daily. If I go with cooling, the strength of the motor will be reduced but if I g with just teh p/chamfer option, will it be enough to keep things under control? I really don't want to loose any structural integrity inside the motor if I don't have to. And the inner heat sink? I don't quite understand that one what is it for, and do I need it? So the options that I think I need are: p/chamfer, hi xmax coil, daily, universal? Would these options be what Ineed for daily 2k+ rms? thanks

i need 2 mt recone kits for my 15's i will also need the glue and i would like to have them dual 2 ohm plus i would like to have the fi dust cone can any one help me out with this i need to order these asap no response on web site

Hey I'm going to buy 2, 12" BL's and I was wondering what amp you guys would recommend to get the most out of these subs...

i'm building two enclosures one sealed and one vented 3/4" mdf my dims are 17-18" high {could go either way a little bit more} 41" wide{also have room over the wheel wells if needed} depth as needed running off an saz 1500d i am looking for the best all around sound this will see all kinds of music at differing levels [daily driver, wife two kids} i'm not looking for every last .01 db but every once and awhile it will have to take a pounding would anyone be able to help me come up with a design for the ported ? any thoghts on the sealed, with those dims it will end up not very deep. is that a problem sound wise, with it being so slim and wide or should i make it more c…

what kind of grills are needed for the fi q 15 ? something strong to protect the sub. i have a suv and 2 kids, i don't want to worry about things getting thrown in back. most of the grills i have found don't have enough clearance for the full throw of the cone. looks are not an issue. if i can't find something soon i'm going to start welding my own.

Finished the recone on a fully loaded BTL 15 today and this thing sounds even better than what I wouldve ever guess... I have one question though... I brought the sub to a friend who owns a shop to get the recone and after playin it a bit... Pulled up to a friends house and noticed the dust cap fell off, so I bought some more epoxy 5 min loctite and put it back on no problems. After expecting my little glue job the dust is maybe 1/16 of a inch off from where it used to be. Will this hinder the subs performance at all? Its sounds fine to me, still loud as chit...(My wife said it sounds like a machine guns going off in the trunk.LOL) this is only a temp system... Next syste…

i have been working on my box design this would work real good with my trunk space. http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/home/bo...ideboxcalc.html is the box good to build or is there way too much port, fi recommends 12-16 per cubic foot of enclosure area? crap it only posts the default box... my box is the following: box width 35, box height 17, box top depth 19, box bottom depth 19, box thickness .75, square port width 4, square port length 2-16

anyone help......please....dimensions are 60x22x21.feel free to make suggestions.

hey can i get a price for two 18 recone and basket for re sx shipped to 38112

Ok I am about 10-11 months from buying a 2009 Mini Cooper S (waiting because I will pay cash) so I have started my plan for the low end. I have a 10" BL on the way and plan to run it of of a Fosgate 25 to life Punch 150 (birthsheet states >800w rms) I want to keep the box small but want good bottom end I am looking at around .5- .7 ft^ Has anyone run the BL in a small box like that? Any problems or chalenges? I can go larger if need be as the car will not be a grocery chaser but my commuter car BUT I want to still have space in the tiny trunk area for the times the wife and I need to put something back there. As you can see I have time to change the plans but the BL is…

I was just wondering if it was possible to replace the push terminals on the BTL with the terminals you need a hex key to open and close, could someone also tell me what gauge wire will fit in the push terminals. I don't have it yet, I'm just asking if its possible.

Well I just recently bought a Q and since I was eager to listen to it, I put it inside the only box I had. The current box is a sealed box with about .9 ft^3 after displacement. Since its on the smaller side I threw some polyfill in the box as well. Now I want to build a ported box and I honestly have no clue as to where begin. I read through several pages, and found some plans but they don't suit my needs. I also searched online for calculators and only came across the RE calculator. I don't know how accurate it is but it kind of gave me an idea how port length affects tuning frequency. I'm a little tight on space and have a maximum of 30"w x 16"h x 16"d. Matter…

Is it safe to run a single fully loaded 18'' BL on a Rockford T2000 @ 1ohm?

Im wondering if anyone has some suggestions .. i know in the thread it mentions (after all displacements for those wondering). (I personally think that 1.2-1.3 cubic feet is optimal imo) but thats after displacements and i have no idea of the subs guts size. i am awaiting delivery of my sub so wanted to have the box ready. Thanks in advance

desperately need to know how much each woofer will receive @ a final load of 1 ohm..thanks all!im searchin through amps so just another option after u guys judge it.
