    H O alternator

    ok thanks for the info. i already talked to someone at dc power and their products seem superior to what i was looking at with pwer bastards. dc is a little more expensive but i want quality not something cheap that dont fit.

    Ordered but never received my shipment

    do u even know if your payment was accepted through paypal yet? they dont even start to build your woofers until payment is accepted. when i placed my order it took 6 business days to build them and then another 5 business days to receive them from ups cause i am in new york and they are in las vegas but when they actually left the building i received my ups tracking number. just be patient they will arrive in due time.

    Q's versus BL's

    i recently sold my 2 Fi Q's (12") and was very happy with that product. i am looking to step up to the BL's now and i am just curious what everyone thinks. i love sound quality but i love that head cracking brutal punch u in the chest type output more. the Q's had great output but i understand that they are more of a sound quality woofer. does anyone think that the BL's ( 2 - 12") would slap that much harder that i would notice? they will be powered by a saz-2000d. also they will be in the same exact set-up as the Q's were. thanks for looking and i appreciate any input.

    My Q is dead

    First off if u can get ahold of a Digital multi meter then check the coils to see if you get the same reading on either side. How long have u had the sub? It may still be under warranty. contact nick from Fi and i am sure they will be able to help you out. they have gret customer service. just my .02

    custom built slot ported box is 5cu ft. net tuned to 33 hz . and yes i will give a nice review. thanks for the input

    my sub just went out!! please help!!

    if its a ported box then you can route the wires through the port without having to use bolts. also while you have the sub out of the box run the wires from your amplifier speaker terminals directly to the terminals on the sub to check and see if the sub works and the box terminal is really the issue. my buddy had the same problem with his cheap box he put in his car. this is why i always tell people not to be cheap on things because if you take the time and do it right the first time things like this can be avoided.

    First impression of my FI q 12

    i agree with you. i own 2 12" Fi Q's with the Bp option and was very impressed with the output of these subs. they sound awesome and are way louder than any other subs i have ever owned. they also beat out all of my buddies systems by a large margin. good choice on the Q's....enjoy them!!!!

    2 FI Q 12's or one 15

    i would go with two 12's. i have 2 fi q's and they sound amazing as well as loud.

    bass off competiton

    ok everyone I just installed my 2 - 12" fi Bl's running off a RF 2000.1 ....Tomorrow (6-17-09) there is a local car show thrown by a radio station in my city and i would like to enter into the "bass-off" and "bass-race"competition. this will be my first time doing any competition like this and i would like some advice on how i should approach it: such as .....should i play music or use like a bass cd or even use like a test tone cd. am i supposed to have the windows up or down? (i have a ported box BTW) i have a 2005 impala ss...should i fold the rear seats down? i know it seems like alot of questions but i figure this is the best place to get some honest answers. Thanx everyone.

    Fi BL

    those are the options they offer for that line of woofer. go to ficaraudio.com and click the tech link on the left hand side on the homepage and you should be able to find your answers there. hope that is helpful enough for you

    My Fi Q's are finally installed

    Got some new ones that we gotta get pics of up on the website.. The Fire and styled aluminum (can't remember the right name right now..i think it is technically 'rubbed aluminum') looks awesome! More cool stuff to come. Brushed aluminum? That would look sweet. Nice install and choice of equipment! thank you... i appreciate it i will try to have a video up soon for all to see. i am still adjusting my settings for the optimum sound quality/output. i am almost there.

    Tracking Number Question

    you will not recieved your tracking number until your payment has cleared and they actually start the building process. whenever you do receive the tracking number it will update when its shipped. it should say billing information received until UPS actually has posession of the shipment. i hope that helps.
