ch 2, you live in MD? I might be there in Baltimore/essex area this summer for a while.

Congrats!

awesome Adrian_D, glad to know I'm not alone

I'd try home depot or sears. I bought a weller 100/200 a few months ago at h/d. Think you can pick up 140 at sears. Good luck- and imo it's ALWAYS worth paying a little more for good tools. Every time I havent I've come to regret it.

I think out of any company I've ever dealt with, regardless of product type, Fi has been the best hands down. Customer service is 1 of a kind, and the guys are alway helpful and quick to respond. Any problems they are there to help you.

I 2nd the loaded BL. The BTL doesn't really come alive till you give it over 2kw. I think the BL would be right at home on that amp.

I'd like to know a price too!!!!! I have 2 memphis 4k now, would like to buy 2 more or if the rfs are decent maybe switch to 4 of those, just let me know please.

not if you drive around beating on it like your in the lanes x2

Great job to everyone. It's an understandable 2nd to the 20 15s, that van looks sick. http://www.spokaneadjusters.org/images/SAA...up_Trophy_2.JPG Not quite fitting, but it's a trophy! sorry, had to do it. sick sence of humor I'd really like to see the trophy as well, see what I need to shoot for! http://www.disabled-angler.co.uk/presenting%20trophy22.jpg

Looks great. How does it sound compaired to those xxxs? My dad's 70 (I'm your age shawn) so I grew up to him playing blue grass or talk radio -he didn't even want to replace the blown factory speakers

sd on 4 12s --> 480cm^2 x 4 = 1920 sd on 2 18s --> 1210cm^2 x2 = 2420 You'd need 5 12s to have similar effective area as 2 18s, although the 18s will need about twice the air space as 5 12s. I just like my 18s soo much.... I say 2 18s. Everyone loves big speakers, they'd be awesome for a show.

If you have some options and it's a clean (undistorted) 4kwatts, I say go for it. I've got a memphis 4k on each of my BTLs and they take it fine. Steve Meade and many other forum members are overpowering them quite a bit with no problems I've heard of. If you smell burning, turn it down.

Hifonics bxi2006d ~350 shipped off ebay.

internal dimensions, with doubled faceplate (not entire box), bracing, and a shared chamber with a port 5x46.5x16 will give you a final result around 11-11.5 feet net after all displacement depending on the bracing and if you adjust the tuning. thats right in specs (even if sort of close to minimum requirements), and if you even tune a little lower you'll probably be a bit happier with the response (more flat response-geared towards better sq for daily listening). If you're willing so sacrifice a little spl you could fit 2 15s in there very comfortably with a better response curve, but I say do it! You'll probably be very happy with the 18s. Good luck.

It depends on the power you have, the enclosure, the vehicle, and other things as well. I have a love hate thing for blazers, because it's so easy to get them loud. I heard 2 12" kicker comps sealed with 300 watts a piece in a blazer that shocked me. Crap box, prefab and simple, but his vehicle made it sound like a much larger system. Just an example. It depends on what 'slam hard' is to you. How many subs, what size, what enclosure, how much power, and what vehicle/space are you working with?

I had to add my .02. Mainly to explain why I think Fi is a great company. At least now he has some solid positive feedback on the BTLs.

I used bolts as well, 3/8", and I'm very happy with how it turned out. I like the look of it-and like you said- never have to remove the subs to change coil config. looks good by the way.

I think after displacement you'll have closer to 4ft^3 (port:>1.5ft, sub .3ft, bracing=closer to 2 ft^3, leaving more like 3.7ft), maybe even a little less depeneding on tuning. If I were you I'd give that space to a 15, I think you'll have a much smoother response. You could make an 18 fit, but after displacement the minimum recommended enclosure is 5ft. My thought on it.

Underoath kicks ass! amazing show when they came to the HOB here last summer. Plus for rock they have great clean hitting bass.

I'd repost in the Fi forum.

I'm trying to find something myself. Need 6.5 components to replace my cdts. Was considering infinity kappa perfects, but my old ones were just so bright, really want something that will sound clean and get loud. Yes, turning down the bass would be an option, but that defeats the purpose of getting beefy subs and sub amps. I'd like for everything to be loud.

lmao... ".....when you tell you wife tha tyou love her and that you will never order anything else and just as you say that the ups guy rings the doorbell with 4 big as boxes for you and she answers the door." When you lie to people you love about what you've bought, are buying, and how much it costs. Some how a a few grand is only a few hundred. When you want 4 wheel drive just to have the suspension to hold the additional weight. When people get in your car and either don't know what the smell is, or immediately say 'smells like new subs and box in here'

Car: 99 Yukon Head unit: Alpine 9831 4-channel: Eclipse XA4000 to replace the EA4000 CDT-CL 6.5 components Sub Amp: 2 Memphis Mojo 4ks Memphis 5v Line driver Battery: Starter and 2 Optima Yellow tops Box: 2 seperate 7.5ft^3 @ 35hz, or can be moved to ~30. Subs: 2 Loaded Fi BTL 18s Wiring: Stinger/Tsunami 1/0 for all but the 4 guage running to the 4 channel. I think I need some new speakers though, if anyone has any ideas. I'd like to run the amp @ 2 ohms but the only brand that comes to mind is infinity for that, but my old Kappas were incredibly bright. Amp puts out 125@ 4ohms, and 175@ 2. Any suggestions?

I think most of Jeezy's stuff is great, mainly the first track off both albums. Young dro-Jackie chan Young joc cd has a lot of good bass lil wayne - stuntin like my daddy -the deep bass in the chorus is nice. I listen to more rock, only rap for the bass. A perfect circle-13th step has lots of bass. chevelle
