Told you last night in the chat that we could do it...

wonder if i can blow the box completely apart

Didn't get an email if you emailed me... We'll get you taken care of though. Thanks! -Nick

Fi is for the direct consumers. Dealers wanted to carry Fi. However when we can do 2000 different options of one speaker alone dealers simply can not stock that. AA is being focused on the B&M entity. This is what they wanted, so this is what they got. Quality products that can be easily stocked, with out tons of options, that is not as customizable and they don't have to keep 2000 different versions of one speaker. More info to come soon...

Only prices that will be posted on the internet will be MSRP. When you contact the dealer that is closest to your area it is up to them how they feel to price it.

Nope...going to a strictly dealer based brick and mortar setup. We're going to make an official announcement here very soon about everything.

as i have an SSD i have gone through Scott/Fi ( back in the early days i bought 6 RE8s from him ), but they dont offer an 8". i would really like to have a Fi Q kinda 8" .... they wont do 8's and say that is what AA is for...... yet AA is going dealer only. i strongly dislike alot of dealers. perhaps part of that has to do with me being a sales rep. i try to educate my buyers and their employees through Product Knowledge sessions all the time. a very small percentage take me up on it. many shops just hire dumb kids to sit behind the counter and take your money or tell you alot of bs. i value dealers that offer solid pricing and take the time to know as much about the product they are selling as possible. problem is that those kind of dealers are far and few between. i understand what they are trying to achieve, but if you are going to have two separate brands at least have similar offerings ( with different wrappers ). the general public would never know the difference and the DIYs would be happy as well. Not saying Fi won't do an 8. I'm saying that it is doubtful. Fi is the end custom to you driver... AA is going in the direction of very few options (only coil impedance choice between the coils) of each size/series of drivers. However it is not going to effect the outcome, the quality of the products is still there and is not going to change. The pricing that we will release soon will be competitive for other brand names that the dealers carry. It's just a simple fact that a BTL has a little over 2000 different options that we can do to it, and dealers can't stock 2000 versions of 1 speaker. So, This is where AA is going. It will make the dealers happy, make the end consumers happy because they have a warranty through the dealers on the install, and a solid high end product line for their shops as well...

Did Scott get you a 'formal' one? I don't know how he writes them up...when i talk to him tomorrow ill gladly get it taken care of if he hasn't already.

More power...get some dimensions for us to work with and we could come up with a box for you... Thanks! -Nick

Port is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long...no clue why it'd tell you to make one that long. I'll get you a design later tonight, shoot me some max dimensions to work with within the vehicle. Thanks! -Nick

Can't do just a surround...you'd have to do a whole drop in recone... Otherwise i'd suggest getting a tube of rubberized glue, something to the extent of Windo-weld that they install windshields with. It's a eurathane based adhesive. You can tape up the front side of the surround and then put the glue on the back side of it... Cheaper and easier solution than a recone...if all else fails you can always recone it. Thanks! -Nick

Doubt it... We're going to work everything out and have a press release of sorts for everybody soon.

Nope don't have anything... Sorry.

Shouldn't need them..i don't have them where i am right now. Follow the box guidelines in the tech section. If you go to model or plot the woofer out in a box program winisd or something of the like will tell you to put it in a really tiny sealed box or a really big sealed box.... Thanks!

Dear god no. UPS already hates us, they'd really loathe us then

$80 shipped... Thanks! -Nick

All depends on how much port area you are running and how much box volume you have....

Honestly sounds like a tuning issue man, how is everything set up on the amp? You really can't expect much out of a stock electrical system and an additional yellowtop...

The staff will post them soon with a bunch of other information, regarding mids and other stuff for the whole product lineup. In one big introductory thread...in a 'press release' of sorts. Thanks -Nick

That's not gonna fly.

Strictly dealer based, no online sales any longer.

email me your zip code nick ' at ' ficaraudio.com

If you have paypal you can paypal sales"at"ficaraudio.com (no spam) In the comment box please put Recone for RE SX 12" Dual 2, along with your Name, Address, Phone Number, and Email address. Generally speaking 3-5 days on getting a recone, but some times people do not put the information in the comment box and we do not know what the money is for. If that happens we have to wait until they contact us about not having what they ordered.... Thanks -Nick

Might be able to depending on which one it is, could you snap a picture of it? Thanks -Nick

Emailed you back. Thanks -Nick
