    amazon strikes!

    i'm sure i'm not the only one who gets email ads by amazon about audio stuff. i was looking at what they had and found this gem. Sounds like a good deal to me, not everyday you see a game/amp all in one. just wonder how hard the game is hidden in the amp.

    Delay on Q's?

    Take a walk in our shoes for a minute. When you have never done business with a foundry before you have to learn all of their capabilities (which has been the past few months as we decided to move all raw material production here to the states). You also have to learn what their machines can and can not run and how big the dies can and can not be. They have to be machined a certain way for extra material to flow out of them so they can be machined down at a later date. You also have to take into consideration on how you are going to machine the excess material off because in certain places it makes it harder on our lathes and CNC machines here to cut the excess steel bits off. Once you have done an initial die you have to get a few parts pulled off of it, machine them down and finish them..and then you have to approve the design. (Which we have already done) Keep in mind that they are not our own personal foundry here in the states. They have a number of people who are employed there and work there and they fill orders in the order that they are received. So, once we approve the forging we get our spot in line for our certain blend of steel material. As our materials are totally different than any other product that is being used that they make. So, we have to wait for that cycle to come around until they are able to melt our material and add the proper alloys and what not you have the proper chemical make up and metallurgy, otherwise..the magnetic properties of it is far below what it should be and the speakers do not work right. They can not melt our material down and add the proper alloys and what not to make other pieces that they make either. Our blend of steel literally is our blend of steel at this foundry. A foundry does not work like a toddlers play doh factory where you simply put yellow play doh in the die and get spaghetti, and next time you put red play doh in the die to get hair, or switching things up to make hot dogs with the round play doh die out of the orange material. I wish it were that simple, would have parts a long time ago if it was. Now, If I were to call them every day and ask them "Hey when are you running our parts?", "Hey when are you running our parts?", "Hey when are you running our parts?". They would become very annoyed with me. Because I already know what the situation is, and we understand that our materials will be made when their schedule allows. They understand that we need the parts as soon as we can possibly have them. There is absolutely no sense in bugging them as they have already stated they will contact us when they are running them and let us know how the production run is going. Business to business is a bit different than business to consumer. We have stated numerous times here that we are waiting on the forgings. Everybody knows that we are waiting on the forgings (The flashing 30 day lead time on the website). Everybody also knows that we will update the forum and the website as soon as we have concrete information to stand on. Until then, as I previously said. It is what it is. We are not going to change the website nor are we going to make an announcement until we for sure know when we are going to have the forgings in our hands. If that is not good enough for you, then I must apologize. I am not going to feed anybody a bunch of lies about what it is and what it is not. Until we have concrete information to stand on and make an announcement with the status stays the same in that we are waiting. We are at the mercy of others that is outside of our control. Hope this clears some things up. so what your trying to say is that everybody's subs ship tomorrow? haha i never knew that there was THAT much involved. but your quality does show in your subs.
  7. been running xentec for the past year or so and no problems at all. got both low beam and fogs for under 140 including the relay thing (so your car dont show bulb out when running lower watt bulbs). i could not be happier, we've installed them in a lot of cars and only had a problem with the chevy 1500 trucks and a 96 impala.
  8. if your going to go with a pioneer i would go with the AVH-P4200DVD it may not have bluetooth but it boosts a bigger screen an looks ALOT sleeker with the buttons on the bottom. and you can get them for $380. for the price i dont think you could beat it with the eq's and crap it has.

    FI Customer Service Suggestion (updates)

    i'm confused so your going to call me everyday with information on my BTL order? i think thats wonderful... nobody calls me anymore anyways so i have plenty of minutes to use on my cell or they just get wasted.

    Since everyone seems to want Neo...

    wow amazing... cant wait to see some videos
  12. see if you have a Acendent Audio dealer and pick up the AA havoc 6.5's. i had a 2 pair of the alpine type S 6x9 3way that sounded decent ran off a crunch 1000w amp. i agree about fusions sound like poo. instead of jumping in like everybody does with a hobby, take a few months and learn about the products and understand the audio world, in that time save up some more money. i know it will be hard for you to gain access to some equipment being from NZ and all but i'm sure you can work something out with a local custom shop.

    What to do for 15" Fi BL

    might want to think about just getting a fully loaded Q. the BL sounds like its a bit more then you can handle. the Q will be able to take the 1500w like a champ. the BL will want more power. you'll save a whole 20 bucks off the cost of the BL if you go with the Q. either way Fi is the way to go.

    All BTL's like this?

    also dont think that the btl is all you need. a couple good sets of componets also make it sound cleaner/better.
