Have you tried to fire the box through the cabin ? Sealed off from the trunk ? Nice setup OP !

I don't understand what is happening with my order ? People receive their subs after just one month. I know Shawn has some health issues, Fi is moving (or has moved),...etc It's the third order I make from Fi. But this one is the longest. Everything has been paid and cleared on 06/15/2012 with Paypal. I received some emails since, and the last ones were like "they are done, now it's packaging time", "Fedex told me the adress is not valid" !!! (sent another one !),... But still nothing. I know / think they did not took the money and went away with it. I helped a friend for this order, he trusted me on this one even when I told him it would be very long (a little more than 2 months long !). 4.5 months : WTF ? Do something, send them subs to me. It's just 2 BLs 12" I can do nothing more than a public thread on this forum. I don't want it to go too far, and I'm not ready (yet) to fill a claim. someone at Fi : I need help !!!!! I asked for a price on a BTL N2 15" for a friend who already has one. The box is ready, the money too. But no answer : as if they don't want to sell me anything more. I have always been respectful with all the companies I buy from, I pay right on time, but ...Fi is taking me for a fool. I can't say I won't buy from them again, because of the N2. Fµ&$ing customer service IMO. ça me fait chier un max. Merde

Ooh finally ! Ok I'll send you an e mail in a minute. I did not want to make my issue public but this has gone too far, for too long. Hopefully the SSA forum exists !!! Thanks Aaron, Thanks Mark !!!!!!!!! I'll let you guys know what will happen.

Still no news from them @ onebadmonte : Tthey can run their business as they want. I agree with that, but I paid shipping and it is not cheap at all (I understand that, no problem). If they don't want to sell overseas, they should have told me that, there are other brands in the market, and I never had any problem with all the subs I've ordered through SSA (same factory ?). Desperately waiting !

If there is a problem, just send the money back and we'll buy something from the SSA store. At least I know they answer my emails quickly. Never had any issue with them.

I'm a first time customer and I want AA/Fi products for free ! How do I contact them ? Must be a teenager,...but not a smart one ! I remember you can drive at 16 in the USA, that's why there are so much young guns on the forums !!! Be strong, SSA, life is hard !

Don't change your sub now : this one can be very loud. you need to run it in a much bigger box (5 ft3 net). With 3ft3 you are on the smaller size. For the mid bass speakers : take a look at parts-express.com and at madisound.com they have a big choice of speakers, for every budget. Good luck.

Better to strap the amps at 2 Ohms. You will only need to adjust the settings on ONE amp, the master amp. It would be easier. I don't know if you would gain anything.

Who are you to pretend to sponsorship or team price ? A well known competitor, a returning customer (you bought a lot from which company?),...?? Business is business. What can you offer to any company to receive anything from them ? I've never eared any of those subs, but I do trust Sundown products. You need to read a lot more here, to get the good informations about those subs. Good luck !

2 4" ports for a single 10 (or 12) ? Wow ! It's what I had for my Xcon 15" ! And I loved it. Good luck with your build OP.

We are starting to get mad Do something : "wrapped up" takes soooo long ? 2 weeks ? You must be joking. Like when you say months ago they were ready ? I have a friend with a btl N2 15", he loves it and want a second one. But I think I'll make him sell it and get 2 other 15"s. Fi is not serious with me. I know they have some issues, but I can see US buyers get their subs in 1 month. I want the 2 subs, or my money back (I'd rather get the subs, as you have the money working for 4 months).

Paid on 06/15/2012. I knew it would be long, as usual for me. I'm not in the USA. But ... All I can do is wait. And send an email from time to time.

That is impressive ! Congratulations !!

Nice work , nice equipments, and nice car !!! Saw this build log elsewhere lately. I remember You got lucky for the alts : you had everything done the same day !!!

What are you powering with the BC2000, if you already have some 3500's ? Nice pics !

Sometimes I wonder if some can read. I don't always understand everything M5 says (because I don't speak Englisf fluently, or everyday), but I know what he needs to answer back. OP, you're lucky enough to have 2 experts trying to help you, and you know that. Take advantage of it ! I love this forum because of mods like them (M5, Impious,...). On other forums, they would have told you to get this brand, this speaker because they are so goood, without any informations about your system and your car !

What VC config do you have ? It's important to know what kind of amp you need. 500-750 w willbe enough as stated. You don't need over 1000 w at all for a Gcon. Get an amp at the ssa store if you can ! Support THE forum !

I've never listened to any of those comps, but all I know is that the type X are the upper line at Alpine. I doubt they could be worse than the type R. But your ears only should tell you. If you're on a small budget, get the cheapest set. If not, there are other brands you could listen to. But the X should not be bad as you may think. Are they worth the price ? I don't know !

What a big pick-up you have ! Nice equipment, but I want to see more pics of the install ! mids, amps, bats ?! Pleeeaaaase !

You've just made someone happy ! Wrapped up ? So they may fly to me soon ?!!! Hopefully, I'm on this forum, so I know fi did not steal my money after 4 months (incredibly long delay for an order). I ordered the subs for a friend (and he trusts me ) BTW, I hope the doc gave you good news.

Good news ! Desperately waiting for my 2 bl's and for a quote for a BTL N2 15" DVC1 fully loaded(you forgot this one !).

IF you're on a small budget why do you want to run 3 subs ? Just get a bigger one, it will be cheaper. The rear battery must be connected to the front one (at least the positive posts) and you can ground it near the battery. I'd rather use 0 ga wire, but if you already have the 2 ga one, live with it.

almost, but not as bad as Americans seem to believe !!! Hopefully !

Ask them, at db-r. They are serious guys.
