Will there ever be an Fi 8" driver?
The Ascendant line will/does have an 8... As of right now we're not going to do one in the very near future...but off in the distance just about anything is a possibility . Thanks -Nick

RE MX vs BTL
Totally different subs... About as similar as a pear and a watermelon.. Thanks -Nick

oz audio recone shipping

18SSD a present for my brother
So long as he's careful he should be fine with that amount of power... However you may want to entertain the flatwire coil option, that would definitely keep him in the clear. Are you sure there is enough room to get a box as big as the SSD18 requires in and out of a trunk? Thanks -Nick

SSD SEALED
2 cubes sealed for the 15 works in Tom's truck, however it may not work in your application... We generally don't recommend running the 15's and 18's sealed. Thanks -Nick

BL or BTL
I'd probably do the BL's personally. Thanks -Nick

MTX or Kicker to power Fi Q?
The ZX1000.1 does about 1200 watts...that's all you should need honestly, you'll have to be careful with the 1500...that's a stout amp if you choose it. The subsonic filter is pretty much useless unless you are throwing down in a higher tuned ported enclosure, you really don't need one for a sealed enclosure. Also there isn't much music these days that goes down "that low" to need one... There are no differences in the dual 1 and dual 2 "SQ" Hope that helps Thanks! -Nick

Hey Scott, I need Le, Z, Pe for my 15" FI BL
Shouldn't need it really, only thing BBP is going to do is predict output curves that really don't relate to a car scenario... Stick within the guidelines that we've set in the technical section and you should be good to go for enclosures. Thanks -Nick

question about recone kits
You should get shims in the kit, just a piece of plastic that goes between the coil former and the pole piece to center the coil in the gap. If they aren't in there you can always use a minilla folder, just make sure when you use it that you use the same number of layers and they don't overlap, otherwise you will get the coil rocked off to one side of the gap. Hope that helps! Thanks! -Nick

Who do I speak to about production?
Sounds good man, let me know if you need anything else. Thanks! -Nick

Amp questions
Exactly, if you plan on running 1 amp per subwoofer you need to choose the dual 2ohm option and wire the coils in parallel for a final 1ohm nominal load per amp. Let us know if you need anymore help! Thanks! -Nick

12" BTL
Quite a few people run the 12's, however they aren't as popular as the 15's and 18's.... Thanks -Nick
-
Regular Cab sub options
Sounds like you have plenty of volume for a 12, however my main concern with this scenario is how much mounting depth you have to work with? Thanks -Nick
-
Sealed or Ported
Yeah, sealed will probably be the way to go for you. You may beable to get creative later and shoehorn a ported enclosure in there. But if your going for ease of use and practicality at this point you may just want to go sealed. Thanks -Nick

Sealed or Ported
..As well as how much room you are willing to give up.... Thanks -Nick

15" Loaded BTL box
Aero's are different, for a 15 you honestly should not need more then 3 3" aero's, possibly 2 4" aero's or a single 6" aero would be adequate... Thanks -Nick
-
BL 12inch sub aero port length?
No need for 2 4" aero's, 1 should be fine, what are you wanting to tune it to? Thanks! -Nick
-
More port area = Better??
That's not a conventional ported box either...that's more of a messed up transmission line type deal... Should be ok, although i know nothing of their enclosures. Thanks -Nick
-
Amp questions
Amps should be fine... Thanks -Nick

MT recone q
No kidding? Hah, learn something every day....course there was that period of time where i disappeared from all things audio, swore i would have remembered that one though... Eh, cool none the less.
-
Reones??
No clue about the T1's...if its a 3" coil we could probably do something...but honestly it's going to be about the same money either way because you would have to ship them to us to set up properly. Thanks, -Nick
-
MT recone q
Hah...well, learned something new today. Other then that it was strictly dual .7ohm flatwire aluminum and 1.4ohm flatwire... Thanks -Nick
-
More port area = Better??
Way too big, if your doing spl sure, but for musical/daily listening you needa keep in the ballpark figure of 12-16sq inches of port per cubic foot of volume... Thanks! -Nick

3.6 cu ft @ 33hz OR 3.9 cu ft @ 32hz
Not that big of a difference, i doubt very seriously if you'd notice an audible difference between the two.. If anything the larger inclosure may be a smidge less accurate...but you'd probably only notice it if you had many many listening hours in with the subs... Thanks! -Nick
