ok, i posted this in the general section, then realized there was a specific Fi section ok, currently i have an old Orion H2. great sub, but its starting to make popping noises, i don't have a warranty, and i'd rather just buy a new sub than try to fix it. so right now im looking at the 18" Fi BL. anybody have any experience with the BL compared to the Q? any significant difference in SQ or SPL? it will be in a 6-6.5 cu. ft ported with 1200 watts...any decibel estimates? or does anybody have any idea what Fi's new line will be? new to this forum, thanks for any help -Chris

any idea how long the wait would be?

2009 Scion xB current setup is Orion 12" in about 1.5ft ported

6 ft is an estimate. i could probably get it up to about 7 or 8 if i squeee it in

thats what i was thinking initially. now i just got to get on designing a box is it pretty much necessary to use 1" MDF for these babies?

when i crank it up, its always rap. when i listen to rock and stuff i genereally turn the bass down a bit

i have an Orion d2400

well, an 18" sub ported should beat 2 12"s sealed. im hoping the Fi will sound better, but its not a huuuge deal

well, im happy with the SQ of my H2 (pre-popping noises of course). so im not sure how that would compare to Fi as far as loudness, my buddy has 2 type r 12's sealed: to me, thats loud enough for daily, but i want to be able to beat his system

i'm running a 1200 watt amp on a stock electrical system and i havent had any problems so far. but i also dont run it very loud for very long my friend has about 1900 watts with a kinetic battery and he's never had a problem
