never know what might pop up when..it just shows up out of nowhere

Hope it makes it one piece this time man! Keep in touch, let us know!

Yes you need the spacers, I believe I replied to your email earlier today.
-
Went to the segmented magnets as mentioned because the 285mm single slugs were way too fragile. Top plate/magnetic gap size is the same, just a little thickness difference..they'll work fine together.

fi making a new entry level 300-400rms range sub soon or at all??
NDMstang65 replied to oakteg21's topic in General Fi
well..look at it like this if you make a product and you lose money on every one you sell to try to be competitive with imported stuff, you won't be in business long in short..zero interest in that part of the market, same with 8" stuff..no interest in it, they're way too difficult to build and deal with for very little money to be made. -

Really hard to make a sub in the states and sell it for 100 bucks...figure your labor, overhead etc. you end up going in the hole. Preboxed stuff from china..not an issue...but that's a road we don't travel with Fi. -
Not a glue that exists that will keep it from shifting, if it still plays your best bet is to simply leave it alone and hope for the best that it doesn't shift and smack the top plate against the coil. Once that happens it's game over, the motor has to be baked at 500 degrees to burn the glue off.

Interesting. I had a couple subs mounted inverted with pole vents and never had issues. My Fi IB315's are inverted but they do not have a pole vent. IB3's have different cooling and have 3 holes in the back plate that doesn't compress the air and doesn't work as good as the other cooling that we use, the older ones had pole vents.

It' happens with ceramics, one out of every 1000-1200 pieces will shatter over time it's simply the law of averages of making something, you are going to have a certain percentage that just cracks. We can fix it, you're looking at about 60 bucks + the recone to do it. The warranty is only for a period of 1 year, if it was in that period it'd be covered. But beings that it's nearly 5-6 years old it's not a warranty situation.

Standard QTS works solid in the 4th orders..

When did you purchase it?

Dc audio never ceases to amaze me (sarcasm alert)
NDMstang65 replied to mlcantin's topic in Subwoofers / Speakers
If you're playing a song on tuning it's not going to cool..the coils don't move enough to cool anything -
Make sure you turn your subsonic filter up to 35Hz..that kind of stinks on the tuning, otherwise you're going to shred that sub. You're definitely going to lose bottom end on it due to the port tuning.

Chose a winner the other night..it's posted on the Fi facebook status

New Q 12 barely plays and bottoms out on low volume
NDMstang65 replied to Chris Duncan's topic in Fi Technical
I've replied to every email you have sent multiple times and told you to send the speaker back if you really think there is something wrong with it. All of the email is caught up and up to date since i've been back. -
So I got my Q12 after 6 weeks....Should I even hook this up?
NDMstang65 replied to CARgoB00M's topic in Fi Technical
please please please please file a shipping claim with fedex ..this is two in a a week since i've been back, we didn't have two in 7-8 months something is going on and they're being rougher on packages so we'll have to change things a little bit, all of the boxes are tight and cut down, if it is dropped 6-8 feet on its side it will bust that bottom box and then the sub spins sideways in the packaging ..typically this does not happen, but two in a week is crazy. -
Telling you it's that run of amplifiers that were made when they got crap silica in the mosfets during the shortage when those things were made.
-
It does not have to be in a fedex box, our boxes are rated for 300 pounds as is the packaging...we drop them off the fork lift and they survive. have you got a claim going? if you're getting no where i'll call our FedEx rep and get it taken care of..we've shipped tens of thousands of speakers like that, a handful getting broken out of that number of speakers is not a bad record at all

..there's a big difference in assembled in the states, and manufactured in the states. that is NOT manufactured in the states. anyone can glue something together and sell it...somebody will buy it
