and does anyone who runs FI do bassrace or street beat? I know meade does, but I mean anyone on this forum. looking to add some numbers to the FI count so noobs can see what the subs are capable of... and 3 year noobs don't count foo's! :D

nice

is that on the FI site? this should be, stickied on here too, results at shows using FI subs just like you posted above ;) I or you can delete my and other useless posts, I just thought I'd add that. or make a stickie and lock it, and update it with the updated date in the title :D good idea maybe?

136db - 1 3 day old FI Q12 and a US Amps USA-2000 in a BMW 330Ci at San Antonio Heatwave (USACI).

And that was with the seat up, and on SQ setting still! ;)

Yes...just about everything was working against me. So I wouldn't use this as a measure of how loud the Q really is.

My BMW REALLY sucks for SPL. And its the family car right now so I'm really limited as far as trunk space. Gotta fit the groceries!

I'm about to get a 200 amp rebuild which should help a little.

after i get my Fi q 15 and amplifier situation figured, ill have to post some numbers for you guys off of the tl in my backyard *Audio Obsessions* Hopefully over the summer i will be working with Audio Obsessions to host a Db event in the near future.

hopfully i will be able to show a bigger number than a 161.4.ran into to some tuning problems.can't get pass 60 hz.help anybody.need 1 more db.162.4 will be cool with 8 poweracoustik a3000db amps.

Ive got a Q 15' and on my only run ive done i hit a 145.4 in the headrest, and it was on "Throw it Up" I havent tuned anything yet or tones so who know how much more i could do.
