That is weird. I checked both the Fi Forum and Website but it's not available. A rep from Fi can probably tell you what is recommended.

Yes you can put them in a sealed box, but I would go closer to 3 cub per sub.

As Nick mentioned... 2 cuft after driver with the copper coils works well. Slightly larger enclosures are needed with the standard coils... 2.5-3 depending on the power you have.

thanks,

thx guys .i was gonna put 800 rms on each sub. was thkinking between 2.5 - 3 cubes per sealed. trying to hit that sweet spot of 25-30 hz without totally sacrificing 40-50 hz.. I'll do a little more research. Sounds like this may not work with that much power in that size box. i was gonna be using standard coils. anybody wanna take a guess on whether or not i should ditch that particular sub for sealed? sounds like a guessing game in terms of output. I guess a stock Q would work however i didnt really wanna do a 2000 watt setup.

The Q is 1000w RMS with no options.

sorry, but i meant 2 stock Q subs. if i can do an inexpensive electical upgrade without getting out of hand i could see myself doing 2. i think my stock alt is 120 amp..i currently have around 900 rms watts with 3 old school 2 channell punch amps and about 4 gauge wire. it is too little as is wit that setup so i know i'll need to upgrade to make it happen
