thanks - knowing the local bass addicts around my area means i will be facing some kicker l7"s or some alpine type R's so i shouldnt have too much of a competition. this is only a local car show any how not like its a car audio show you know? it will be a great learning experience. Thank you to everyone who replied for their input on the questions that i had. :clap:

thanks for the advice i got a few tracks i can play.... (some jeezy, e-40, bass mekanik, etc.)

tuned to: 33hz (as recommended on the Fi website)

and what do u think i should play as far a music, tones, etc.

good choice on the power wire. i bought the same for my install. big three and 1 run of 1/0 to the trunk.

ported - 2.3 ft3 net per sub tuned to 32hz

i am proud to say that i just placed my order for 2 - 12" Fi q subwoofers. i cant wait for them to arrive. i had 2 alpine type R subs hooked up to a 1000 watt hifonics monoblock amp. do you think these fi q subs will pound alot harder than the type R subs? The Q's will be powered by a brand new hifonics brutus amp rated at 2000 rms at 1 ohm. any comments or suggestions will be greatly appriciated.

thanks for all of your advise i will do as i do normally

I am due to receive my ups delivery of my 12" Fi Q's tomorrow and i cant wait. i am so impatient. i want some advice on how to properly break these subs in because i have never learned the proper way. with any other subs i had i just installed them correctly (properly set gains and what not) and then proceded to see what the can do. i have been addicted to car audio for some time now but i am always learning something new. any opinions/advice will be greatly appriciated. running a Rockford fosgate 2000.1 amp if anyone is wondering.

u may be right. i have had many differenttypes of subs and i always installed them and played them as normal. never had any issues with that way as far as i can tell

yeah i think the fi q will suit my needs perfectly. i want great sound quality but i also want that bass that you can really feel ya know

is that knukoncepts 1/0 gauge wire i see in your install?

high pass filter or low pass filter?

whats the rms of the amp?
