Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 33 Registered: Apr-06 | My father got my car for me for school while I'm up at state college. I have to put the system and rims on it myself however(well i gave him the money to get the car anyway). This is the system I was thinking of JL Audio 12W6v2 (x2)$730.00 Hifonics BXi 1606D-mono amp $265.00 Clarion MAX675VD- headunit $679.00 MB Quart QSD164 6.5"- doors $249.00 MB Quart QSD210 4'- back seat $269.00 Hifonics ZXi 6406- speaker amp $229.00 total- $2,421.00 Is that a good set up? I think i wanna go ported for the sub box but where can i have it made? Any suggestions on the system? |

Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 35 Registered: Apr-06 | Nice Subs!!! Do i get 1 ohm or 2? Also im guessing polk makes good stuff they look good. Where should i go to get the install, the HO altenator, and the sub box made? I'm not doing this to the car to show off, i luv music n I pay for quality, my mp3 player headphones i spent 100 bucks on so u see my point. There Grados SR80's |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 739 Registered: Mar-06 | dual 2 ohm subs. the only speakers out of those in that price range are those neodymium 6.5"s. http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=3080 |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2958 Registered: Jul-06 | ^^^^^ Doesn't matter the answer is yes, lol |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 38 Registered: Apr-06 | just recieved an email with someone saying alot of people on this site have been having problems with all lines of fi's subs. Can someone give a little insight on that? |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2960 Registered: Jul-06 | Who's the dumba.ss that sent you that. I have only heard of 2 incidents involving FI subs and both were resolved. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 39 Registered: Apr-06 | lol, well they where trying to get me to order stuff from them maybe thats why they said it lol |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2963 Registered: Jul-06 | If it was someone from low-hz, they seem to have a beef with Fi and I'm not sure why. Fi AND low-hz (and the brands they carry) are all good. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 40 Registered: Apr-06 | ya it was lol. I'm happy with the system yall help me put together though. Can I get the enclosure for the subs on that site that the speakers are from to? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 41 Registered: Apr-06 | also should i go ported or sealed? |
|
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleTeam RevolutionImortal Box ... Post Number: 7877 Registered: Feb-06 | Ported!!! |

Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 42 Registered: Apr-06 | what makes you say ported? My dad has 2 12 jl audio w3v2 in his trunk, its sealed, n we where settin off car alarms n the system was only on 15, also does this company make good boxs? http://www.woofersetc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=page.display&page_id=14&mfg_accou nt_ID=26&category_id=60 |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 741 Registered: Mar-06 | try to make your own box. |
|
Silver Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 877 Registered: Mar-06 | Yes, I did M.S. Beef with Fi.... naw not me. They have beef with Low-Hz for some odd reason, as for that thread they started few weeks ago. As for problems with Fi, I know of a couple guys that have had problems with the BTL and Q lines. Not getting into a pissing contest, but just do the research  Kevin |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 43 Registered: Apr-06 | how do i do that, is there an instruction guide on how to make it, whats the best materials, how to mount the subs? Is there also i guide to doing a stealth install with the wiring? I like projects and if i could id like to do it all myself |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 44 Registered: Apr-06 | that website also has RE Audio, would u recommend the Fi's or the re audio subs? I heard there really good |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2965 Registered: Jul-06 | " as for that thread they started few weeks ago " Link to that? I've never seen anyone from FI bash on anyone else. And yes like I said I've heard of a few people having issues with the BTL and Q but last I heard everything was resolved. |
|
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2966 Registered: Jul-06 | RE is ridiculously overpriced now. Scott, the guy who designed RE's subs is the owner of Fi. Basically Fi = what RE used to be |
|
Silver Member Username: 04redmach1Columbus, GA USA Post Number: 883 Registered: Mar-06 | I have dial up, it would take me ALL night to find it haha. Bunch of guys know what I am talking about though. As for RE, they are good products, just tad on expensive side. Kevin |

Silver Member Username: TheweaselSteamboat springs, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 743 Registered: Mar-06 | you need 3/4" mdf board and liquid nails and deck screws. you can do one box with a slot port tuned to 30hz 32" wide, 16.5" tall, and 22" deep. i know that fits cause i have a acura tl the port needs to be 4" wide and 25" long |

Silver Member Username: Skibum12189Cleveland Post Number: 656 Registered: Mar-06 | wow accord ex v6 coupe, you could go with 2 15" BTLs and a few memphis 4kw......jp |

Silver Member Username: CriedErie, PA US Post Number: 101 Registered: Jun-07 | DONT USE LIQUID NAILS! That is complete sh!t. Talk to anyone who knows anything about box building and they will tell you carpenters wood glue FTW. You need silicon caulking, 1 5/8" - 2" drywall screws, 3/4" MDF wood of course, dont get 5/8" or 1/2", cuz that is teh suxX0rZ. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Boo71886Post Number: 45 Registered: Apr-06 | anyone can point me in the direction of some manuals for sub box building and installing stealth |
