What should I expect from a btl n2 12
How it will sound will be determined by the enclosure, vehicle, and setup. In the right installation I think they sound pretty good, and loud. This driver leans towards SPL, but is usable for daily listening, so I would not expect it to sound like a Q while handling twice the power. Hope you enjoy it.

FI BTL Warranty
^this. I would ask myself why this happened though- is your closure within specs, etc?

Unhappy Christmas
Glad you're ok, hope the drunk driver gets their dues. One thing I've learned is to never turn the hospital ride down- next day you may be hurting and have to fight insurance harder for that doctors visit. Have a better new year, maybe stay off the road.

Sir-Lancelot's Yukon XL - UPDATE 18" ZCONS / 4 GP3k Page 27
This vehicle really sounds really really great. This is one of the loudest vehicles I've heard in a long time, but with such a killer front stage it keeps up really well for a 150db + truck. I said it before, but it's worth repeating- these subs sound fantastic.

I need some help with a situation..
Fixed You admit the girl is screwed up by her parents, and her parents are wack jobs. Ditch the girl and get your bros camera back or make sure he's reimbursed. You had the camera, it's your responsibility to take care of it.

From: Inside FI Facility
I got to see a bit back in 06 or 07, but I'm sure it's a much much bigger operation lol. I was more impressed with how laid back and cool Scott was to talk to than the shop- which at the time was modest

02 malibu bracket
My inbox just fills up really quick over there, so it's full more times than not. I have a design I want to try out, but I still don't have my shop built so I'm forced to use other metal shops. The guys working with me are really slow at getting things made- once it's done it's fantastic work but slooow. When you have a chance email me at [email protected] and I'll give you some more updates on the bracket.

Bracket Requests
Bracket should be rolling out pretty soon, and alts are ready whenever you are (all have a 14.9v set point if that's what you're asking). Just email me if you haven't yet and I can let you know how things are looking. Thanks, Troy

Black Friday Deals
I wanted to do something for black Friday, so I would put out a few of the most popular items, and a few new ones. These prices are good for this week- starting today and ending Saturday. These prices are only good until 11:59 Saturday night. Period. First off is the 220a GM alternator, fitting most 99-2005 GM full sized trucks and suvs. It is slightly less beefy than the previous 230, which makes room for the 250 that will be released within the month. The 220 still has ratings of 135 idling amps and 230 peak. On sale for $240, this alternator would be a great fit for those on the fence about buying a new alternator or an additional battery. If used in multiple they're a very cost effective way to run a ton of power. These are built to order and may take 1-2 weeks for delivery. The dual alternator bracket for 4.8, 5.3, and 6.0 V8s will be $225. These are in stock and ship within 1-2 days normally. The dual alternator bracket for late 90s-early 2000s 4.3 V6 Blazer, Bravada, etc will be $250. I'm waiting to get a batch of these in stock, so wait times may be a few weeks. Finally anyone who wants to buy a quad kit for the 99-2005 Tahoe, Yukon, Suburban, etc with 4.8, 5.3, and 6.0 V8 can buy the bracket, with 4 220a alternators for $1250. Please email [email protected] to get in on any of these deals.

4" coil option for BL Series
I see, that makes sense then. I'll definitely keep an eye out as I'd love to see some specs on that.

4" coil option for BL Series
Wow, that took me off guard! Sounds great, just wondering but is there a reason for doing 4" on the BL and not the BTL? What sort of power handling were these new BLs looking at?
-
Let's see some videos!
These vids were with 4 BTL 18s getting around 1500w each. http://s116.photobucket.com/albums/o7/alpinemayn/?action=view¤t=JustinBass.mp4

Fi BTL-N2 power handling
That 1 extra battery wont be enough for that amp at 2 ohms unless you're just burping and putting it back on a charger. If you can only do one sub go the route these guys suggested with running 2ohms or higher, and you'll still have to turn your gain down. The BTL will handle a lot of power, but the recommended 2000-2500 watts is plenty for daily use.

Looking very nice, great work!

Two BTL 18's Or One Warden 21?
2 18s would have a lot more cone area, and overall power handling. Also have you actually measured to make sure you wont be building a wall to fit those 2 18s? It'll be high enough to make the windows pretty hard to see out of from my blazer experience.

Box for 18 btl in four door blazer anyone have any ideas
A little tight for room without going high from my experience. I'd do 6.5ft net @ 32Hz sub up port back. Slot port or aero ports would help keep the box a tad smaller too.

2 21" Wardens
Unfortunately I'm in the process of selling the Wardens, so this build has come to an end. I wont be building a new box or working on this one. It has nothing to do with this last box not being what I was looking for, I just decided to go another direction. I've looked at different amps the 1000.1 just puts out the most power for the price. I've run it at .5 daily without it going into protect once, though rise is around it's 2 ohm rating. It's a fairly efficient amp that does good power. I've been eying up some other brands but this amp would be hard to sell for what it's worth. I see 500.1s going for 7-800 often, but I doubt many people would pay 1600 for this one. As far as my experience with the Wardens- I loved these subs and I would never hesitate to use them again or recommend them.

anybody have beats and a sunroof?
My tahoe had a sunroof. First burp with my old 4 18 setup put it off track and I never fixed it. I'll never buy a vehicle with a sunroof I plan on putting more than 1-2 small subs in.

230 amp alternator sale
I had a customer who unfortunately had to wait too long because of back ordered parts. The wait time was out of my hands as I was told a few days by my distributor and it was unfair to the customer who was kept waiting much longer, so I had his alts coated satin black for free. It's the least I could do, I try to take care of everyone like I would want On to pics: Just shy of 1000 peak amps, with somewhere between 600-700 idling amps depending on the vehicles idle speed.

BL vs BTL-N1
It's really going to boil down to your enclosure and build overall. Look at it like you would compare the BL to a Gen2- it's going to be the same answer and there are dozens of "BTL vs BL" threads. Personally I would buy the N2 with the intentions of getting a 2-2500w amp down the road for it.
