Happy Belated Birthday Mark hope you had a great day and even better night. Chad

Nice update! Chad

wish I had the money for a couple!!! Chad

very nice, now thats customer service! Chad

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! Chad

It normally takes a while to update, to make sure all the specs and photos are correct. I have been patiently waiting as well. Hopefully it will be updated soon. Chad

Working on that for your guys...and gals We'll have a nice surprise for everyone next week on these dustcaps Tease!!!! Chad

WOW!!!! very nice. how does it sound? any pics of the dust cap? any vids? ........ Damn it's sorta like watching soft core porn just waiting for a nipple shot. Chad

I have my TC 3k in a 3.1 ft^3 tuned to 32hz and it plays every note with great SQ and gets stupid loud. I have been thinking about getting another one. I am just not sure if I want to do that or a other single sub set up. Thanks for your testing, was a very interesting read. It sums up what I had thought with out having the time to test. Chad

I normally check out Fi's web site at least once or twice a week. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised to see the updated look. Check it out. https://ssl.perfora.net/www.ficaraudio.com/...ndex.shopscript Chad

Thas a nice ride. Chad

Just to update. I am going with a Mach 5 IXL 12. Going to run it off of a Phoenix gold tantrum 1200.1 I will start a new build log when I start the install. Thanks for all of your opinions and help. One of the main reasons for picking the IXL was price, A friend (Darin) of mine was upgrading and sold it to me for a unbeatable price. Chad

sorry I assumed they were both 4x4's. Chad

If they are both 1/2 ton trucks no they will not work. Dodges are 5 lug with a crorss section of 5.5" and Chevy's are 6 lug but I'm not sure the cross section. 3/4 and 1 tons are both 8 lug with 6.5 " cross section so they may work depending on back spacing. They do sell adapters for the 1/2 ton but they are 3/4 -1" thick and I wouldn't recommend using them. Chad

nice

"sorta" I have found some decent full range for around 50.00 for the pair. 65-80 for the seas however I wouldn't need the processing just yet. you do bring up a valid point with total cost. I know I would be better off just to wait until I have enough money. I just lack patients. Chad

Ok so I am bringing this back. I am waiting for the sub to come in (Custom MJ 18 DVC 4). I am thinking of putting it in a 3.5 ft^3 sealed enclosure. I will be powering it off a Eclipse xa1000 480 watts @2ohms. As for the front stage, I have a idea but not sure if it would work or not. I was thinking of picking up either a eclipse xa 4000 or ea 4000, It has built in crossovers LP 50-500 as well as Hp 50-500. So this is what I was thinking(feel free to state your opinions) pick up a set of full range 3.5 or 4" coaxils put them in the dash Hp @450hz then put a mach 5 6.5 in the doors subsonic set to 60 hz and Lp @ 500 hz. (is this pos, with out sounding horrible?) Now I know this is not active. I am looking for strong midbass with a decent midrange and highs. Without all the processing as it is not in my budget right now. I listen to all sorts of music, metal,hair bands,rap,country,classical,rock. pretty much all music. With using the mach 5 6.5's I can upgrade later when I have the processing and use SEAS 27TFNC Neo textiles and do a full active set up. let me know what you think. Chad

What voice coils do you have? D1's or D2's? If D2's I would say saz 3000d @2ohms the output would be around 2000 watts. If D1's I would say saz 1500d @1ohm the output should be around 1700 watts. Just my opinion Chad

great work Chad

very nice Chad

I would go with the two 12 187's as well. Although I like single 15. benifits of the 2 12's IMO price, more cone area, 2 motors vs 1. I would also go with a single 8" port if your worried about space. A single 8" tuned to 34hz in 4cuft would need to be about 23.5" long while 2 6" would need to be about 28.5" long. Just my opinion. Chad

ok so only 2 of us. I know there is more. Chad

very nice. Chad
