Fi Technical

Besides the voice coil, what are the differences between MT and BTL softparts?

Hey guys, im from maximum threshold, my team captain has been waiting for a reply from scott about recones for my MT that we need for db drag world finals. Is there any way one of you can speed up the process a bit or maybe we can talk to another one of ya about it? We are in dire need of the recones and our trip to finals depends on it. Its a dual 1.4 ohm recone for an MT. Scott will know what im talking about as he's been emailing back and forth with Peter for a while, but as of late the emails have stopped. Thanks for any help you guys can give us. Don Doyle Team Maximum Threshold

ok i want to get 15'' BL but i have a wall already made for my astro van and its tuned at 29hz will the BL work in that box. Thanks Danny

What is the 15" bl in sd or the cone area in inches not sq inches.

i believe the biggest size i can do is 30x30x14 .. thats about 4cubes.. i made a design on re calc.. http://www.reaudio.com/speaker_box/LPort_Box_Calc.html

i came up on a deal. both subs are 15" BL's, both have cooling, flatwind, and the daily option. 1 however has extreme leads, and the other has regular leads. will this cause problems between the drivers or is it ok to run them together? i know the extremem leads can cause slapping, but is that the only downfall?

i wanna run a fi ssd 18 off a us amps xt 1600.2 in my sebring.. but im not sure if i have required space for it in my trunk.. i would probly have to face the sub up and port back to make it work. what do you guys think..

I need your help guys..... 1. Sealed or ported? 2. Does any one have a pre-fab box that works well? 3. Does anyone have box specs that I could duplicate?

My personal car is a 1991 Honda Prelude and I've been dreaming up ways of upgrading the system from its rather small old rockford p2 set up(old school black and red coned rockford p2s). The car is small, the trunk is even smaller, comparable to a mustang trunk. The trunk opening is much like a mustang, opens like a lid with rather small clearances. I'm thinking of putting a dual BL 12" set up in it, building the box inside the trunk to achieve hopefully around 4 square feet. The rear seats are gone, so there is an opening to the trunk, would it sound good to place the port in that opening? I know not to cover a port but I've never heard anything rather direction or place…

I just ordered my 2 12's with BP power option...just for good measure. I'm gonna have a T20001bd on em. I want to port em. How do you think 1.8 cubes ported to 32Hz for each sub would sound? Do I need to push for 2 cubes? I don't have much room in my car...but here's a pic of the trunk space I have with my previous setup. That was just 2 JL 10w3v3's I'm thinking of running the boxes along the side where the old ones were. So how would 1.8 sound? Still jam the subs hard, or do I need to go for 2 cubes or even more? More than 2 would be pretty tough, but I wanna build the fiberglass boxes once...gonna be alot of work.

Was wondering when Fi will have them posted here. Also, does anyone have any for 1 15" BTL @ about 3.5cf with a slot port?

So, now that my friends vehicle is out of my hair, I have a quick question about mine. I listen to almost pure rap, love it. I love SPL big time, all the vibrations, shaking of the vehicle, etc. Would a 12" ported BTL be the best bet for me? It is obviously going in a car, so room is..well, eh. Or would something like a couple Q's be better in the long run? Right now, I am considering the single BTL. Now this is gonna be a stupid one for ya, which Fi sub compares to RF T1's? I have a dispute that continues now and am curious. Thanks....hope I win this fight, lol.

Me and my friend are about to hook his car up with some Fi subs. We are unsure of what really seperates ported from sealed and how power makes a big difference. Right now we are lookin at 3 Q 10's sealed, 2 Q 12's ported, or a 12" BTL ported. Q's will get 1k watts each, the BTL 3k to 4k watts. We listen to everything from heavy metal to rap. What we are lookin for is a rough idea of how each of these setups will differ in every aspect. I know it sounds like a lot and we are grateful for it. He says he may wanna compete in something with it later, so that is something we need to keep in mind. Any help or suggestions would be great.

I bought 2 12" SSD 2 ohm DVC subwoofers about 4 months months ago. I finally finished the fiberglass box three days ago. Anyways, I'm using the Sundown Audio Mono 1500W rms amp, and as my cousin and I were looking over it we realized that there was no possible way to get two 2 Ohm DVC subs down to one ohm with that set up. We'd have to do 2ohms which would only be giving me half the power from that amp. My question is, what can I do about it? I emailed [email protected] 2 days ago and I haven't gotten a response so I was hoping the forums would be a little faster. Is there any way that I could ship the subwoofers back to you guys and get the dual voice coils changed to…

Im looking around locally for a place to build a box for 2 15's. Ive heard of a place called precision audio but I'm not too sure if they use quality material/planning/preparation/etc. All I know is they charge about 250-300 for a box. Does this sound reasonable to you? I know there are a whole bunch of variables but judging from your past purchases and stuff, let me know, thanks.

hey hey i just got one of the re xxx 05 model and scott i emailed u about a few things such as specs and a 18" top end lol the 15 just dont make me happy so i wanna convert it to 18 anyone know how much this will cost? my buddy john Mulcahy told me to ask scoot cuz he was the one that designed these subs

Well, we just slopped together a set up for this years nopi nationals in atlanta. It was 3 kicker CVR 12's in a partitioned sealed box feeding each sub 2.4 square feet, and also 3 kicker CVR 10's in a partitioned box feeding each about 1.6 square feet. They were stacked and put in the back of a 98' Durango no extra battery, not even another cap. Powered it by 2 Crunch Powerzone 1000W 2 channels. We ran the stock USAC 1801-3001 class, and did well. Hit 141.2SPL at 56Hz beating several guys running memphis 15's. Regardless, we are gearing up for next year to be much bigger and louder. This year's set up was built in 2 days with subs from various cars just thrown together i…

hey, i have access to some ED Ov.2 motors, and was thinking it might be a good start to recone. Can a drop in recone kit be had for this sub? the vc is 62.5mm which is right around 2.5 in. I would like something inexpensive and sq related. i read in previous threads where the older e12k (desjil) was reconeable for like $60 or something. Let me know! thanks, brian here are the specs for the O: http://www.edesignaudio.com/edv2/product_i...;products_id=35

do u guys have a list or catalogue? I hate asking for each individual part... I feel like im always hastling uguys here for recone parts either way need some dvc 1.4 and 0.7 alum coils, cones, spiders, tinsel(the thick stuff) and some dust caps do u prefer an email with a list?

Saw the Q10 is up on website, what is the recommended sealed and ported enclosure size, and tuning frequency for the ported. Thanks Never mind found it Q 10

i am ready to purchase the fi bl 12. i have a hifionics brutus amp 1600 watts and i want to run it at 1ohm what option do i need on my speaker to run it at 1 ohm...??? dual 1 ohm or dual 2 ohm thanks in advance

Someone with a lot of experience might be able to tell me what the results of my plans could be? I really don't want to make another huge box a month or so from now, and wood is expensive, so I was planning on building a 20cube box @ 32hz for my 2 btls 18s I have now. In another month or so I plan on getting another 2 btls, which I could simply cut 2 more holes for them and use the same box. does this sound reasonable? I'm sure the first two subs would be OK with that much space, but will there be any real negative effects to doing this? I know there will be a slight change to the specs after the displacement from the subs, but it will only be around 1/2 a foot. Thanks a …
