Fi Technical

Alright so i have a BL 15 in my car right now. When i get money i plan on buying another one. But the one i have right now is D2 instead of reconeing it to make it d1 i was thinking could i just buy another D2 and then just buy another SAZ- 1500d?

i read the guide on here for the ssd's, and its a pretty wide range of sizes. I have plenty of room, and was thinking tuning to 32hz and about 16-17 cubes gross. Will be subs up and port back in expedition running off 1 saz1500d. Any suggestions, or does that sound like good place to start? thanks

Does the FI Q have any Shorting rings, do you guys use rings on any of your drivers

Hello guys, New to the Fi World and need some help making the right subwoofer choice between 10" or 12" before ordering. This will be a trunk install in a Honda S2000 CR so space is a bit limited and box will need to be sealed. System Build (so far): Enclosure "Sealed" Max 1.0 cubic ft before displacement. Max mounting depth ~7.75" Power (2) Digital Designs SS1's strapped = 1200 watts clean (from a previous install) HeadUnit Kenwood KIV-BT900 4.0V pre-amp outputs Wire KnuKonceptz 1/0 awg Battery/Alt Stock for now Distribution Block SoundStream PowerPlant Front stage TBD...DLS, Focal, etc. Although I was interested in the BTL-N1, the mounting depth probably will not allo…

hey guys .. im looking at building my own enclosure for my BTL 18" and was wondering whats the minimum cubic feet as i have a limited area to work with Thanks

I am going to build (or have built) a 1.88 cu.ft. enclosure tuned to 32hz for a 12" Fi BL. I want to put a round port in the box or multiple round ports or even a triangle port. Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the port? I know there are tons of calculators out there but i don't know how to take in account port noise and all that fun stuff. I don't know whether to put one port or multiple or anything. Thanks in advance!

I am having problems with my btl's. It just started recently, when i listen to music the subs start to make loud popping sounds, Instead of a flow of bass they pop. But if i play just a tone then they seem to be fine.

here is waht i have to work with... 11" tall, but that doesnt leave much excursion room, so maybe 10"? 32" length 16" deep im thinkin about a SSD 10 or 12 ... idk if 12 can make it in the space... woofer should face sides front or top, probably a must that its on top anyways because of hieght limitations.. i want to only be able to see the carpeting, no components or sub showing.. will be 500rms for now, ill get a 1000 sundown soon enough.. its for a 63 impala.. so help me on ideas friends.. thanks!

whats up i was wondering if someone could tell me if a 5.573 CF. after port and sub displacement enclosure with a port thats 12.5"s tall 5"s wide 20"s long tuned at 34.73 hz. sub up port back would be a good box for a 18" fi bl or would i be better off going with a 15" bl let me know thanks.

I was wondering if 6.75ft3 net volume at 32hz is good for 4 FI BL 12's in a ported enclosure with about 6,000 watts of power?? 6.75ft3 net volume, 32hz tuning.

Does the recone kit come with the glue if not then what type do i need?

in my first thread i stated that i had a mtx tc4001 that i wanted to use. but it woouldnt handle the 1 ohm load that the dual2 would have or it would have a 4ohm load if i ran it in series. if i get a D1 and run it in series wont that show a 2ohm load to the amp?

Just as the title says, I may be getting 4 Ssd 12s in a trade and I'm. Doing a blow-through in a Toyota pickup and was wondering if they. Would perform well in a 4th order band-pass. Thanks

I'm sending in my 3 hp motors to be reconed on WED. I need a addy to send them to. Also I believe its $148 to have them reconed to 18's including shipping each. Correct? So I you could let me know where to send them, and if its ok to sen'd a m/o with the motor, or would it be bast to calll me and I'll pay over the phone with my Debit card?? Thanks, Joe. P Also The 3hp's have the tall top plate. would there be any benefit to miacine cooling channels in the top plate?? Could you do a fully poly cap on the 18" recone(like a havoc), I've seen 1 done, and a 10 with a poly and Fi logo, I'd love to have a full poly with the FI logo. Would look great..

I traded everything i had about 6 months ago, well, guy gave me good deal on getting all back and some new stuff he just bought. Anyway its 2 BL 18s, and 2 sundown 1500ds strapped. I had subs up, port back, 20 cubes before port and subs tuned to 33hz. It sounded great and definitely had the lows. box before was this: then i had new design done for wall behind front seats, same tuning, and specs, both boxes with 200+ square inches of port, wall box: Both boxes designed by chris at fishercustoms. I never use backseat anyway, but not sure if will make big difference as in louder if i go with a wall. any suggestions? or just go back how it was?

Yes i read the sticky at the top of the page, but i just wanted to see what people thought. I haven't bought anything yet, but what about a hifonics bxi2006d (yeah i know its not sundown or anything), at 1ohm (1800-1900 watts im guessing?), on a bl 18 with p chamfer and flatwind? would that be enough to handle 1800 rms? I know i could turn the amp down, but i wanted some input.

I want to make an SPL system so I`m asking what option should I set and this sub is good for spl. Sorry for my english I`m from Bulgaria.

Does anyone have the TS parameters for the Black Fi-Day X, specifically the 10"?

Im wanting to build a box for my two 15's because i want to get my system term lab'd at a local shop and right now i have a fiberglass box but i want to make another box all out of MDF. so if anyone can help id greatly appreciate it.

I'am going to be getting a box built and was wondering what tuning do you guys think for 4 10" Q's in a 4 cube box? it will be in a SUV and I listen to rock and rap. Thanks

Hello ! I am from Germany and i bought a BL 10 ! Now my Question : Which volume must have the box and how long must be the port ? I hope you can understand what i want to know ? I cant find some informations about my problem ! Sorry my English ist not very well ! Nice greetings !

Im getting 1 18'' fi.btl fully loaded and my enclosure is going to be 6.3 cuft. (After all displacements) 3/4mdf tuned to 34hz. But as far as the port can you please tell me how long,tall,wide,etc. it should be for best hairtricks,loud bass at high notes,and the best low bass I can get (Since being tuned to 34hz.) without port noise. One more thing as far as the enclosure should I have the top and bottom of the enclosure double baffled or triple baffled or the whole enclosure double or triple baffled or what? Please help as much as you can I really appreciate it!!! Thanks guys

Im soon to be getting 1 15" ssd but i just have a few questions on what i should do to elctrical to make it sound the best it could without spending alot of money at all (under 150$). it will probably be going in a ported box about 3.1 after all displacements at 32-33hz. Now my car is a 1995 saturn sl2. stock alternator and wiring. battery is over a year old. would just replacing all wiring in my car to 0 guage do the trick or would i have to go alot further. 0 guage on big 3 then on power and ground also. I would also like to know if my US amps XT2000D would be good to power it. thanks.

im about to switch to port tubes instead of slot ports and i was wondering if i have 2 18" fi q's how many 6" diameter ports would i need. i have the box set up into two chambers at 7.1 cubes each. i was wanting to tune the box around 31-33 hz. i didn't know if i should use 2 ports per chamber or just one and what the exact lengthe should be.....ive used most calculators and they are telling me with 1 6" port in a 7.1 cube box the length should only have to be 6 inches, which doesnt seem right b/c i was thinkin more like 15-16 inches. shoot me some info thanks

I broke one of the terminals on my BL 10" yesterday when I was pulling it out of its box. The tinsels are fine and the sub is still working perfectly. But the terminal is moving up and down! I am thinking it is going to start vibrating once it gets moving! I dont know how Fi had it secured, I am thinking it was glued down, if so, what kind of glue should I use to reglue it?
