right around 25 hz. i like it to b loud around there. i listen to alot of chopped and screwed, and most of that stuff gets low low. and my setup right now gets it ok but i would like for it to just b a little louder that low.

o i thought they were much higher than that. im gonna look into that. thanx man.

i would love an xcon but i would have a hard time powering it...im a little low on cash, lol no job and everything...so i wouldnt b able to get enough power to it, without having to buy another amp. i was thinking maybe a bl tho...idk.

im not sure how to be more specific about lows...do u want like frequencies? bc i dont know what they are. and what do u mean by finding out how my subwoofer maps out?

idk what im really looking for lol, i just want my lows to be louder, they are already loud, but i was just kinda wondering if i can get more from them with a bigger box. and im not running all 1600 watts to it, i have it turned down to 1300

lol i dont really wanna waste 50 bucks on wood and 10 bucks on screws and glue if its not gonna make any difference.

the only problem u will have with running the nightshades is using the bare minimum box size. i believe they call for 3-3.5 cubes per sub before port and sub displacement and u only have about 7 cubes to work with before sub and port displacement and that is going above the top of the back seats. i would go with the bl's or drop down to 12's, that way u can build a decent sized box.

hey guys, if i tuned a box to 26.5 hz would it hurt the sub? ik fi recommends 28 but i like it a little lower than it is now. so im gonna build a new box, and tune it to 26.5 if u think it would b ok. ne help would b great. thanx.

well...i built one today lol, just got it done and its all dried and put it in, and WHOA!!! it just takes the lows and murders them. chopped and screwed songs are insane. im gonna have to take my backseat out and make a bigger box lol. i got a focus hatchback and im gonna take the seat out when i get enough money to get more mdf. ill post pics. where can i get 1" mdf. does anybody know?

unless you get rid of the backseat.

i would go with the bls so u dont have to use the bare minimum box size. you only have about 7.5 cubes in the back of a focus hatch b4 port displacement and sub displacement.

you ride around in 40 degree weather, with a sweatshirt, and a carhart jacket on, just so you can have ur windows down to get the best sound possible.

this is a second box that i have now. 28 hz. sub and port up. the first box sounded great all around, the 28 hz box got a little lower, im hoping this 3rd box will be even stronger in the lows section.

idk...im just looking for a little more output in the lows section...i listen to alot of chopped and screwed music, so losing a little bit of highs isnt a big deal for me. im gonna get some better doors so that might help a little bit but all in all it isnt a big deal. the box i have now is tuned to 28 and it gets loud low, but i figured i dont really have anything else to do today and 2marrow so i could build a box and then if it helps, i will use it. if not then i will swap them out lol.

at 0:15 it shows the fi logo and website perfectly. lol badass bro.

alright kool, thanx guys and ku40, sri man i tried to delete the other one, i figured this one would get answered quicker.

hey guys, this is probably a noob question, but i have an 18" fi q in my car with the bp option. i have it hooked up to a hifonics 1610 1600watts rms, i am running about 1200 (i set it with a dmm). its in a 6.3 cubic foot box after displacement, and its tuned to 31 hz. my question is, why is it that when my doors are open it sounds alot louder than with the door shut. opening the windows helps when im driving, but its getting cold and i wasnt sure if there was anything i could do to make it loud with the doors and windows shut. any help would b great. thanx.

i have heard from a few people to set my loudness on my headunit to off. i was just wondering why. any help would b great.

alright, thanks very much for a quick response.

thank you for a fast response. i have another question. i have heard from a few people that a pioneer head unit will have a bad grounding on the rca's? how would i fix that. there isnt anything wrong with my setup but i dont want anything to go wrong in the future.

sounds easy enough.

hey guys, i normally dont put aftermarket door speakers in my car bc i have never had anything loud enough to need them lol, but i got an 18" fi q and its pretty loud. my door speakers are in the process of becoming blown lol, so im looking to upgrade...i dont really want to run an amp, would like to just do some speakers, preferably that will fit in the stock location. it will be in a 2003 ford focus zx3. the stock speakers are 6x8 and 3 inches deep. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanx guys.

im not sure how, but im guessing i can figure it out. so yea i would do that.
