Old 2 stack Q or the single slug?

Someone on another forum was saying that he was going to base his decision on what numbers my brother's N2 ends up doing when he gets the electrical to turn his amp up from this video The sub ends up being a pretty small factor, in terms of putting up a number on the TL, when compared to the many variables that go into a build. :facepalm: So if i built a box and made the sub play and it turned a 157 on the termlab because I yanked the K factor way up he'd buy it instead of something that did a 149..because he thinks his is going to do a 157? sigh.

Need some more info. What subs were they? What size? Dustcap color? Options? Was your information included in the packaging?

nothing wrong with the sub...that happens on refresh rate of the camera, and the microphone is EASILY over loaded. (I can overload the mic on my phone because my voice is too deep...i have busted friends ear pieces in the past) ..whoever buys something basing their decision of a video on youtube is..questionable anyhow.

...it's on a 300 watt amp probably clipped to death read the replies on youtube

As stated in the other threads, I'll just condense it to this one. We have had an issue with one of our suppliers in either ordering or receiving the wrong size material for the 'side blocks' of the N2 motors. Long story short, we are having to machine down all of these surfaces, which simply takes 1-2 hours per speaker. We did not plan on this happening, but it happened and we have to deal with it. We'll be calling everybody as we have time and are able to and let everybody know the scenario in-between changing parts in the CNC's. We are trying to get them finish machined, in paint and assembled every day. We are hoping to have quite a few more going out by Thursday, Friday, and Monday. Thanks for your patience for bearing with us during these issues of this first run of new motors. Things like this happen, I am just thankful that we have the ability to fix the situation, albeit slow..we aren't dead in the water. Thanks! Nick

Poly's are long gone.. Carbons are pretty much gone as well for a few months...gained a lot of popularity and sold out of them.

Probably says this: NOTE: You have chosen the Inductance/Heat Ring and not the High QTS magnet. The Inductance/Heat Ring package must be used with the High QTS magnet option so please check the High QTS option and click the Update button. Or NOTE: You have chosen both P Chamfer and Cooling. The Cooling package includes the P Chamfer so please uncheck the P Chamfer option and click the Update button. It will not let you check out with certain options that contradict each other. Remove options that contradict each other, hit update and it will allow you to check out. Pchamfer is included in the cooling.

In the words of Stewart Gilligan Griffin. You know nothing of my work

Talk about hookers and blow ahahahhaha

Low tuned ported 12 would sound great... I prefer the sound of low tuned ported boxes myself, daily that is.

We do not do pre-orders, never have..never will. I see no point in taking somebody's money and making them wait for months on end to help pay for product that doesn't exist, that just screams "I do not have enough money to order 100 pieces from China so I will discount it to raise capital to pay for it before it even exists, and if it comes in with everything messed up I am screwed." ..granted we actually build our own stuff here so it is definitely different. Still absolutely refuse to do it though. I blew coke outta my nose just reading this. lol. sorry..

Cat's out of the bag now

Wasn't sure if he was interested in 10's or 12's. The 10's are still up, got quite a few of those left.

LMMFAO Yep.. You're one of those guys. sure am, but not because I use the IB3 in the wrong application, as I smash coils with every other sub as well. Ive never burnt an IB3 coil, I havent burnt a coil in 6 years....ever since I started having 4X RMS headroom and stopped clipping. If I never TermLab'ed the van Id never have bottomed those, and if I would have just gotten four 18's for the towers instead of just two to get me by for the 22's always "coming out in a couple months...just a couple more months" I never would have bottomed those either, as I havent bottomed the four new ones yet. I could put any one of your other eighteens in either of my setups and Id still bottom them, cause I always red line, always ride the line..and if you want to hate on THAT someday then youd be correct... and I could run your other subs in the correct applications with the exception of more power than I am supposed to and bottom those as well.... has nothing to do with the wrong application. But what do you keep bitchin for? I throw more money at you every time I break shit. You should be happy. I help pay your rent. And by "one of those guys" I hope you simply mean "turning them inside out" not calling and bitching, cuz Iv never called you and blamed you. I know full well I crank 10Hz sine waves for 10 minutes full excursion at tuning without breaking a sweat. You've never complained about breaking them, and I have always told you that you should not run IB woofers in a ported box, I do not want you to tell other people that you run IB woofers in ported boxes...because they go and do it! Then we get yelled at (not from you, others) because they a) break, b) sound less than desirable...and are peaky as hell. ...I said you were one of those guys that are infatuated with running infinite baffle woofers in a ported box...for what reason I still do not understand nor will I ever understand because it makes no rational sense at all what so ever. It's the people following in your footsteps that cause issue and the ones that buy a pair of 12s or a pair of 15s and slap them in a ported box...that do not have things quite as under control as you do...and turn them inside out. Because they saw it being done on youtube, so they figured they could do it too. So, if they do not see it on the website, they can not purchase it...leading to less problems on our end of having to explain for hours on end why they should have never ran a woofer that is designed for IB use in a car in a ported enclosure. We decided to not do the 22 for the time being..just have to do the cone and surround. Many other things are far more pressing and will actually sell a great deal more than the 22 would.

Probably can't do anything with them... I've got a feeling they are probably 2" coils with Chinese tolerances...that we do not stock. You can cut one apart and measure the top plate though if you want. Being dead honest with you though, you could pick up the black friday 10s and have less money in brand new subs then what you are going to have in trying to recone those.

LMMFAO Yep.. You're one of those guys.

Will be making a few changes.

Never coming back to Fi. Had too many people buying them and slapping them in a ported box...and then yelling at us when they didn't work and turned them inside out. They're moving over to blueprint drivers (strictly our HT brand) and should be available in 6-8 weeks.

Well, a subwoofer by definition is designed for 20-80Hz. Anything higher then that is handled by midwoofers etc.

..you get what you pay for..

Post links to your Youtube videos in this thread..if you've got hair tricks..bottle tricks..cup tricks, whatever you've got post it up! I want to get these up on our Facebook page as well!! Thanks!

No need for that..we always keep those parts unless you just want to do it.

No issue servicing any of the old subs, we keep those parts. It is just the steel and magnets that we do not stock any longer. No problem with soft parts though.
