lmao wares the rearview mirror???
-
either ask the guy you bought them from or send the soft parts into FI and tell them you need the exact thing but new.
i use loc tite on the threads of basket screws and ca glue covering the heads of them so that this doesn't happen because it almost always means recone.
lol pain inthe ass!
-
you might have scratched the fuck out of the voice coil.
i would order a recone kit for it. tear it down and rebolt the basket down real good. then recone it.
i pulled it out pretty far and it looks perfectly fine. idk bout the inside tho. big problem is tho idk what exact coil config they are i kno ther dual2 but copper or waht
-
look like the nuts fell off.. cut out the voice coil/cone assembly and recenter the magnet on the basket and tighten it back down. then recone. thats about all you can do.
the bolts look stripped out.

alrite so i bought these woofers from Brian Owens on CA awhile back and put them in my wall. They are 15" Fi BTL softparts with different motors. im not sure of what motors they are but they arent fi production. anyway i finally got everything hooked up on the Z2LV friday and then today i was driving at liek 1/4 volume and it made a horrible noise so i stopped and messed with it and noticed it was stiff. so i pulled it out and found that the bolts going into the motor have stripped out.. WTf do i do? i guess i can call Fi tomarrow but if i gotta get a new motor and a new recone and waht not on top of that thats gonna suck. it jsut really upset me ive been waitng all this time to get it hooked up and 2 days later... salt. hope it gets fixed before the 30th......any suggestions? lol WEDLING>haha as long as it holds/ works.

Im looking for 2 15"s that are around 800-1200 watts rms each. im lookin to spend around $300-400 on them and ofcourse fairly new. LMK

very nice job on the logo. i'd sport blue shag
haha thanks good to know their are others in the world like me! haha
-
bump for the 143 he did at the show
-
Alrite so this is the first of the shag builds. if you saw the RED SHAG Build you kniow what im talking about lol. these kids are a little off the wall and want to goofy stuf haha.
the bottom was finished off with Blue formica.
White formica on the sides.
this is the front. the holes are for 3" aero's and the square is for a plexi window. i also chafered all of the edges so it will look sick with the vinyl.
ok this memphis logo took me Awhile and im really proud of being able to re create it using only a ruler and a compass haha.
on to the 1/8 closed cell.
cut out lol i attached the xacto to the compass it made it a little easier.
my friends are a big help haha
it turned out really nice with all of the lights. i ended up making side walls for the trunk and its now ALL shag haha. it looks alot better with no ugle grey trunk.
-
nice build, is it playing yet?
lol yeah i did the whole build ina day. i think he ended up poppin a woofer though :/ they arent thesmartest bunch on the planet haha
-
purdy. how's the downfiring sound?
good, down firing increases LF, extension, eliminates cone distortion, and increases overall output. we do ALOT of them at the shopwith low power woofers. but ther really wasnt much of an option with his truck anyway, especially with the entry level woofers
-
lol i did 2 builds right in a row with the same style of shag thats on my headliner. i met some interesting kids and they all wanted it haha. This was build 2 with 2 of my old kicker comps. i used a Quantum QSA2150(my fav.) amp which pushed them fine. i had a bunch of finished pics but accidently deleted them haha.
i had to put the port in the middle and do some angleing to get it right. it was teh only option but ended working really well and had a very nice freq. response.
i didnt want to just cover it all in shag i had to switch it up. i used some 1/8" closed cell we use for logos n what not to rais up a center section that i will cover in vinyl.
i rolled the edges of the shag so that it would be nice and clean. then i made a plate for teh recessed area out of 1/8" abs/stainless substrate and put my decal on it lol
i wish i had some mroe pics. i made a console/amprack for the 2150 than fit beween the seats that really finished it off.

-

-
show/comp goes from 10-5 and we'll have an after party at my house...

-
All of the available baskets and everything that is on the market and suspensions/surround bodies simply are below par for what we would do for an 8" sub..
Just don't like the idea of using off the shelf parts and slam them into the basket because we like doing high excursion type stuff..and current stuff available simply not up to snuff.
You never know what might pop up
haha ic whatur sayinn lol but if Fi did come up with a badass 8, put me down for a bunch of them haha
-
fi /aa same thing really
yeah lol iknow that i jsut wish there was acually a true FI sub haha
