Fi Technical

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

is my rockford fosgate t20001bd at a 2 ohm load too much for my 2 q18 d2's? its a 2 ohm load at 1600wrms. thanks!

I have a 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe and I am going to put a Fi BL 18" in it. It will be powered with a Rockford Fosgate T10001bd amp and a Kinetik battery. Just ordered it yesterday I have a general idea of the specs on my box in order to fit the 5-10 cubic feet. It will be about 9 cubes by the time everything is displaced. The only problem since I am new to car audio and this is my first system is what are the dimensions of the port? The box will be W 45" x H 20" x D 20" with 3/4" MDF. I want to tune the box to 32Hz. Any help will be appreciated. -Kasey

i have been searching the forums and technical advise.... but i dont see anything about FI speakers in a sealed application. i want to run 2-15's or 2-18's in the backseat (fiberglassed in) of my caprice, however i dont really like running ported enclosures. is sealed not an option with FI speakers?

I have made up plans for a 6cu ft box, after port and displacement. The port would be 4" Wide and tuned about in between 33 and 34hz. If i made the port 5" wide, it would take the box all the way down to 5.1 cu ft or so to be tuned to 34. The port would be 21.5 in tall. It just seems to me that 4" is small, but then again thats a lot of box volume to take up. I'm really hoping i'm just more worried than i should be about port size, and the 6 cu ft will work out. Any suggestions?

assuming both had the BP option and would be fed by a 2200 w rms amp, what kind kind of difference would i notice musically between the subs?

This is the graph i got from WinISD volume is 5.4 port is 4* 8 * 11 (dont know if thats the right port size or not. I would like it tuned around 32Hz) http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee29/mld42/FiBL.jpg This is a very rough sketch of the box to show where the ports could go. The sub with be mounted inverted for more box volume. I have 2 12's now in a sealed box, but would like something louder, and I have a BL 18 dual 2 that im not using so I am trying to fit it in my truck. http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee29/mld42/Blbox.jpg And is there any way to extend the port out of the box rather than porting the inside. I havnt seen this done so I dont know if it wil…

hey, im ordering 2 BLs, i kinda have a design for a box, but need some help since this will be my first attempt at making one here is my plan i got a question on the length to the second port, i used the re enclosure so it game the the first, but does the second port wood need to be directly or close to the center of the subwoofer? and to separate the 2 woofers, do i need 2 pieces of wood or jsut 1? thanx

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 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?

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

i just purshased 2 18" btls.i have 4 cf for each 8 cf gross for both.i want to tune the box to 36hz .can some one tell me how many square inches of port opening and the depth ofthe port that i need.thanks

I was wondering if someone could list the parameters on the 2nd gen (UFO style magnet) BTL's for the 18". Im playing around with some Win Isd plots and was wondering how my BTL would compare! Thanks for your time!

I have a toyota ex cab truck and I was wanting to know what is the biggest sub set up I can fit in the back? The space in the back is 19'' deep X 22'' tall X and 53'' wide. I want to do a ported box with either 2 Q18's or 2 Q15's. Given this amount of space what do you think I could fit back there? -Alex

Will this enclosure work for two 15" btls

I believe I will be running this amp at 1ohm to my dual 2 ohm sub. Will this sub handle what is said to be 1500w RMS from the SAZ (which I have heard is under rated)? I am not planning to pin the gain or anything, I just do not want to blow the sub.

This is my current box plans for the 1 18"BTL and 1 Saz-3000d I have. I plan on putting all these into a 03 Tiburon(hatch) and competing in spl. Really my only question is would a bigger box better/ is 5.27 cubic feet enough. Thanks box: (outer dimensions) heighth = 16.5 width = 36 depth = 21.5 port: (inner dimensions) heighth = 5 width = 7 length = 10 this port will tune the box to about 34.67 hz which is what i personally like to tune mine to. after port displacement...this will give you about 5.27 cubes of air. so you have room to brace it and not go below the recommended volume. this is also assuming that you're using 3/4 MDF. competition port: (inner dimensions) he…

I'm getting a Fi btl 15", could I please get some suggestions on a variety of amps i could use to push it . Thanks in advance

hello, If anyone can tell me the port length for a 15inch fully loaded BTL that would be great. they took down the specs for the new woofer i guess, making it unable for me to read it. So if anyone can tell me all the port information for a 15inch btl i would really appreciate it. Thank you

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.

could someone give me advice on a box for 2 BTL's 12?? it'll be powered by a 3500D or 2 2000D's. thanks

Hey, I sent you guys a konaki motor about a month ago with an invoice of what I wanted. Just wondering what the statis of it ? The name is Jason Leonard if that helps. I left the invoice in a pouch outside of the box will my contact info, email address, payment options and what I wanted. If you could just reply to this on the statis of the motor/woofer. Here is the tracking number --> 1ZE4E0710335401132 Thanks -Jason

Okay so the Fi Q15 recommends a Ported box: 2.8-4 cuft @ 28-33Hz.... Using the Measurements below will i successfully build a box 4FT^3 tuned to 33Hz ? Or is the Websire giving me False Info ? Website used is Subwoofer Enclosure Calculators, Fraction to Decimal, Parallel, Series, Port Length and Volume Calculators

I have read from many 04/05 XXX users that the tinsel sometimes break. My friends 12" just broke last week and we're trying to get some tinsel wires and there so hard to find. Forum members have told me to talk to scott or nick at Fi car audio to get some. Seems they might be busy since i didn't get a reply. Hoping they see this and respond back. thanks

Hey Guys, Could anyone help me with a box design, I built some sealed ones, but I just am not sure how to calculate the ports and tuning with ported ones. Even with the Box calculator's.
