i am looking for someone withe the specs for 2 18s to be placed in a 2001 tahoe or if a box builder has already made a fit box email me at [email protected] or hotmail.com thank you P.S Fi has differnt speakers which one is best for the sound and what is the rms range for 2 18s for Fi

Found two sa-10s in ported box for 300, not even broke in yet. Is this a good deal?

trying to figure out my box vol. and whatnot now that I screwed up a little bit putting it together and the dimensions are slightly off from the plans. what is the displacment of a 15 D2?

i was wondering if i would do any damge to any component of my system by using a dual 1 ohm sub, and a dual 2 ohm sub together? Also, for us dummys out here, what is the formula to figure the resistance when wiring like that? i know there is a way to get my resistance between 1 and 2 ohms that way, but might need a diagram, where could i find that?

i want to get louder but im on a budget, so someone told me that i could recone my 15" Fi SSD to an 18".... how hard is this to do or am i required to send it off and get it changed? Iv never done this before so all information and recommendations is helpful Also, what difference in loudness would i notice the box will be 6 cubes at 32Hz. in advance, Thanks

hey guys i got a recone kit from peirce audio products i am making my cascade omega 15 into an 18 they didnt send me a gasket that goes around the basket where can i find one?

Just wanted to say hey guys, long time to talk to. Been super busy and that first vid I posted was a pos, second coming soon! Ok now on topic -- When I first got my system running I noticed there was a smell to it. Not a bad smell but just something strange; best I can describe it is the smell of a fresh built, just turned on computer. The reason why I relate it to this is because I just re-built my computer today and notiecd this is how it smells. I have never smelled burning nor have I ever heard the woofer "bottom out". The excursion looks alright to my knowledge for the lowest song I have put at it. I do like to ride around though with the volume up pretty high, somet…

Here is my PM to denim... i thought i would ask everyone else this too.... """ Like i probably have told you more then once. Im running 2 jl 10w3v2's and a jl 500/1 amp. I was in my car today after doing some more rear hactch "dynomat" (i use ice and weather shield but thats illrelivant) any-who... I really like the SQ of my subs they hit everynote, and there loud, like 141 is loud, but im looking for more. the SI MAG 15 D2 will that sound as good as these, and have the bass, the pounchy tight bass, even when turned up high? because i know there is a reason they make subs 8"-18" for a reason. I mean would i be better of doing another 2 10"s + another 500/1, or doing 4 12w…

anyone using a Mag 12 in a HT setup? What power and size enclosure? Good results?

I would like some of you to rank these by clarity at high volume. Which are really designed to keep up with extreme bass with having to opt for Selenium, B&C, or Eminence. I'm thinking about doing 3 component sets for front stage? Audioque AQG-6.5 Component Set Re6.5c DDC6.5 Kicker 09RS65.2 Focal 165KF Poly Kevlar K2 Power Series Rockford T162s BOSTON ACOUSTIC PRO60SE ( I had some of the older models and I know they sound good, but I'm sure they will lack midbass) Orion HCCA6.2

So i got my new amplifier Kenwood KAC-9104D And now its time to find some woofers. 1x Vibe Space 12" (1000WRMS/3000WMAX) 2x Alpine Alpine SWE-1243E 12" (250WRMS/800WMAX) So which would be better ? One Vibe or 2 Alpines.

Ditto ^^

4 of my 15" recones, next to my friends 18" mt since im reconing all my mts, we blew all 4. in the process, this basket broke off the motor the voice coils. the one that is un wound came off the motor with the broken basket lol. we pushed that bitch hard..... baskets and last but not least, the motors

In the $200 range I have a hook up on DLS so those are my 1st choice http://www.dls.se/english/index.htm ( cant link to models) UP5's are what im looking at Also, Alpine Type X's

How does the RSD-216 woofer compare to others? Should I upgrade it or stick with it? I was happy with the sound it had when I had them installed in my accord. Money is an issue.

So I've always noticed the impeadence/graph phases on most (good) subwoofer companies manuals, but I've never understood necessarily how they worked. Of course I know what impeadence and phase meant, but not too sure how it works on this graph (the frequency on the X axis, resistance on Y). To my understanding, it has to do with backpressure in the intended enclosure, so at the certain frequency where the resistance peaks that is where the backpressure in the enclosure its meant for peaks? And as for phase I guess thats just saying that 1 line is at 0 degrees and the other is at 180? But thats my guess whether its right or wrong the factor of backpressure? I've been getti…

yes guys, has anyone tried the RE SX 12" in 1.75ft^3 tuned at 33-34Hz? how will it sound on the lows, and the SPL? how you compare it against it in a 2.0ft^3 box tuned at 35hz will the 2.0ft^3 @35Hz play lower and louder than it in the 1.75ft^3 @ 33-34Hz Box, even that the smaller box is tuned lower? On RE sites they recommend 1.5ft^3 @35Hz and 2.0ft^3 @ 33Hz why is this? isn't the bigger box better for the lows, so why tune it so low? Isn't it better to tune the 1.5ft^3 @ 33Hz to get the lows of it compare it at 35Hz and the 2.0ft^3 @ 35Hz compare it at 33Hz? this part I don't understand, I've always thought that a bigger box is better for the lows and the smaller box b…

My son is looking at buying a DCON-12 S4 for his car. He will have a Alpine MRP-M500 pushing the DCON. We want to build a ported box for the DCON. SSA says optimal ported box is 2.25 cu.ft tuned to 28-33 hz. I tried downloading the box design from SSA. I can get the google sketch picture, but not the other file. Can someone help me with the box dimensions?

i need port dimesions for and icon 12 in a 2 cubic ft. box if you can tell me the rectangular port size and the circular port size for tunning to 34hz

Mark, I am looking to build a 2 way bookshelf for personal use and just for the hell of it. I want to use SB Acoustics SB29 Ring Dome Tweeter and was wondering how well you think the MLI would mate up with it. Anyway, any thoughts you have are appreciated.

I'm in the process of working out a system for my TJ Jeep. I'd appreciate some advice on different ported-enclosure arrangements to suit it. Leaning towards down firing, but i am concerened about wind interference from port positioning, as if is a soft-top. Also, it will be to suit two Fi BTL 18's or 15's, undecided... Thanks!

I've noticed that the level 3 subs have small vented requirements. I am looking to use two level 3 tens in a jeep wrangler. The enclosure size would be the recommended 1.4 cu. ft. (for both subs combined) using a 4" precision port for tuning. Can I start cutting or is this a bad combo?

i have a 98 explorer and never done a ported box so i wood like some help i have 2 15'' crystal cmpx215 subs wood like a ported box tune to 26hz r 30hz will be runing a orion 2100hcca on ea sub i no oldschool amp but thats what i have and i love them wood like to do 4'' pvc on box i have 41''w 18''tall 20''deep let me no if you can help me out and thank you
