Fi Technical

I have a 99 chevy tahoe that is bagged and I am looking to building a box inbetween the rear tubs. In the picture it shows my measurement but will this be enough space for 2-15' FI Q? Those are inches not feet, sorry.

What are they since there not posted on your website? Actually, none of the parameters for any of the BTL's are posted on your website?

So I unrapped my new toys today and put them in. But I want to make sure that I don't need to remove this bolt covering the pole. I'm thinking it's just there for shipping so nothing gets in, but no book = no idea. Great looking sub, and I'm happy. Perhaps someone could save the Fi guys some time and make up a generic 2 page book or something. You know like people always like to ask "where's the mounting holes" and now I'm asking about the allen bolt. etc. etc.

I am looking into buying the 15 or 18. I would like to say that I would rather get the 18, but that's not true. I want to get whatever will promote the best response with my trunk size. I have a 03 grand prix, and the height of the trunk is only 17 inches. The maximum dimensions the box width and length can be are 35 x 30. My main question is if the surround of the sub is only 1 1/2 to 2 inches away from the lid, will that decrease my response? With the 18 the dimensions would be 15 tall x 35 wide x 29 deep with the port firing into the cab tuned at 33hz. Will smaller actually give me the most bass? I'm not worried about SQ, just spl... Thanks in advance! Any help and ad…

i finally found a box to fit my beautiful babies! i just need to know whether to buy it or not. heres the catch. according to fi standards: Q 12

alright guys i need some help on choosing a amp for my sub. i was thinking of getting a crunch 3000 pro 3000 watt rmms at one ohm for 439.00 is this a good amp or should i look in a different direction. i fogot to say the btl is fully loaded

Im changing my set up.. i only had my 2 10" Qs for a couple months but they arent loud enough for me anymore. I have an 04 super crew F150 and im taking the center seat out of the back seat and im gonna center console 2 12"s. im gonna try to fit BTLs. id like to keep it a wood enclosure to keep the cost down. Anyone have any ideas for how to get them to fit and have the airspace they need?

i am about to put my 10" BL running at 1 ohm on a lanzar opti2000d. This week I am installing an irragi 200 amp alt and a kinetik 2400. Will this setup destroy my sub? If so i'm going to get a DD9512. Let me know please!

Hows this sound to you guys. (2)15 Bls Box: 17x39x22 = 6.54cubes (after displacement) Will (2)4in flared ports be enough port area or not enough? suggestions please

I already made one box that was 26x27.5x16 and it didnt fit in the trunk of my 94 accord I dont really have much room to work with I know 26x18x16 will work but is there any possible way I can get it tuned right? I will use aero ports or slot.

i have the fully loaded btl, in jus 6 3^4 cu ft box tuned to 34.78 and theres no doubt about it being loud, and rumbling things BUT i am not able to do a hair trick. there is very little air being moved around. is this normal? or is the box to close to the hatch, and not getting enough air? my brother has the 9515g and we put his box n sub in my ride and it moved air like crazy, but the btl isnt move any. any ideas why?

Or should I say my son wants loud. I've e-mailed Scott a couple of times, but I know how busy he gets. I thought I'd try here. What I'm looking for is the loudest possiblw set up that I can get with an honest 1400 watts @1 ohm available. I can build a box any size I need to, so that's not an issue. It's going in a mini-van so I've got plenty of room. He's trying to do better than his current setup of 2 AA Arsenal 12's in a ported box (tuned around 32-35Hz). My initial thoughts were 2 SSD18's w/dual 2 Ohm vc's in a ported box, but I'm looking for advice from someone from Fi. Once the drivers are chosen, I'll need help with box dimensions. TIA, Carl.

As titled says. my max dimension is W33 H17 D26 which I calculate would be 6.52cu^3 after speaker displacement. I have 6.25 round ports and I know its kinna small for the 15Q but thats what I'm planning to use. When I use winisd (i know) with 6.5 cu^3 and 2 round 6.25" port tuned to 30hz I got a 23.57" long. I know my calculation is off because I have not deduct port displacement but hope someone can give input. I know the box is kinna small for the 2 15 but thats the only space I can spare. Most online port calculator wouldn't allow me to calculate 2 ports. Also the sub will be powered by 2 SAZ1500d. Thanks

New to Fi and just picked up a 18" btl. Need some suggestions on box size and tuning. I have about 10 cubes gross before driver and port. Looking to do a sub up, port back, tuned to maybe 35hz with 4k of power. A few have said that these have tremendous bottom end so I'd like to tune appropriately.

I scored 2 15"q's of ebay for 405$ So im in the process of designing a new box for them. My box total after speaker and bracing displacement is 11.488cuft. So i need about 137-183 inches of port area. I was thinking a 9inx20in port 25.84 inches long for 30hz. That would leave me 8.798cuft after all displacement with 180 inches of port area. Does this sound good? If not what would you reccomend?

What sort of rules apply when constructing a ported enclosure. I know the basics like tuning and port dimensions. But do subs need to be spaced a certain distance appart to be effective...? Things like that! Cheers

i have around 900wts at 2 ohms looking to do a single 15" ported box. listen to rap and classic rock. which would work best a Q or ssd wth copper vc.

can someone please help me out here? i need a box design for TWO 12" Fi Q's!! tuned to about 33 hz. and the dimensions (height) should be able to fit in an 07 altima with limited trunk space or theres no point lol. thanks a mill

what's the best enclosure volume for single 18btl powered by saz3000d?

i just ordered 2 12" Fi Q's and i've seen specs on how many cubic ft to make the enclosure and stuff like that but i want to know the specs on a ported enclosure for TWO 12" fi Q's!!! i just want the best for my twins and whats up with all this tuning to (x) amount of hertz and s*** like that?? how the f*** do u tune a subwoofer??????? well all i know is that i want my twins to play as hard as possible with the best sound quality and for people to be like WTF DO U HAVE IN UR FU**ing TRUNK MAN!!!??? lol feel me? so i just need 3 questions answered: specs on a ported box for TWO 12's.....whats the ideal hertz to tune the subs to (and how to do that).....and please list the…

what does Universal option do to the sub frequencies response? will it make the SPL lower since the motor is not optimised for the coil impedence chosen? or does it give the 'peaky' effect like flatwind?

Just wanna say i got my woofers after checking the status everyday for 2 weeks... perfect condition and they slam. once again thanks for being so quick and professional, these woofers are amazing. i do have to get more stickers though, 1 per box? cmonnn! -Kyle

Ok here is my question, If I cut the circle out to the circle in the specs will the SSD fit in there ok? If not what size should I make the circle. Here is the plans (I changed up the baffle so it would not be between both sides) Pics:

Hi. Im from Romania and i bought 8 or 9 months ago a FI Q 12''. As far as i know there are 2 speakers sent in Romania A FI Q 12 AND A 15. OK i have a little big problem with my fi q 12 sub. the spider has unsticked , or broked , from the center of VC or how is called in english and that makes the sub scratch if i play music. i stopped the music since that day cuz even if i slowly hit with my finger the surface is does pack pack !!! oufull sound. and... i expected more from Fi ... i never tought it will broke. by the way the voice coils are intact. tHE power that the sub recieved was 900 w/ 1 ohm . thanks ... i hope u can help me. http://img76.imageshack.us/my.php?image…

Hey guys, first post! Haha. Well, I recently just received my 15" BTL in the mail. I was looking and it and noticed that there were no screw holes for mounting the sub to your box. So how do you mount it? Another question I had was, is there a special way that I should be breakin in the sub? I didn't know if there was a good way to do it. Thanks guys and appreciate all the feedback.
