and i'll try and take some pictures but i lost my cable for my camera so it might not happen sorry

i bought it from their website. and i already emailed them, not much they can do. its past the time that i needed to file a complaint. So i'm pretty much boned. where do i buy a basket?

So i have a fi 18" q, and i dropped it into my baffle this weekend and guess what! there is a crack in the metal right below the surround. On the part that sits on/near the baffle. basically its bent the metal and it appears to be cracked all the way across but not all the way thru. It makes the surround sit a couple of millimeters above the rest. Of course i never saw this when i got the sub and its been sitting in my closet for a month or two. so i'm well past my 72 hour time of reporting a problem with my sub. is there anything i can do? should i just install it and see what happens.

fi 18" bl or q

Funny you said this...cuz its EXACTLY what I was thinking when I read the story/rant... I don't think it was a random hacker, because what would they have to gain from all that effort? Sounds like either a friend that wants your girl, or an ex-boyfriend who is trying (pathetically) to get his old girlfriend back. And once you find out who did all this...BEAT HIS FUCKING FACE IN. This person deserves it. I have a very small toleration for DUMB SHIT. ^^^^ this

does it matter how wide your forty five is in your port ?

No, Hemi and Cummins ftw Sorry Dustin, you know I had to slip that in there ford raptors ftw imo

yeah its my first time. and i'm completely a visual learner, and so unless someone has a video of an install in my car (which i doubt) then i can't grasp the subject. i'm not what most would call handy, or intelligent haha.

^^^this for sure

i need help running my wires from under my hood to my trunk. just help installing the wires and hooking them up to the amp.

Is there any one is the sacramento willing to help me install my aq1200, for free or a very small fee. PLEASE.

yes i ment sub to amp, and any ten gauge will do ? if i use bigger will it be bad for it ?

why don't you like knu? and i'll look at those

i'm considering it but i'm poor so if i can get away with just the best 4 gauge rather than 1/0 i will. and kidwell i see klm but not klmx. is that what you mean

So i plan on buying wire today for my first system. its an fi 18" on a aq1200. I was wondering what the best 4 gauge amp kit is. i was looking at knu and they have like ten different options http://www.knukonceptz.com/productMaster.cfm?category=Amp%20Installation%20Kits and i can't tell which one i would need. I've been searching for the best 4 gauge wire but everyone is always talking about 1/0 not 4. also would it be better to just buy a 1/0 gauge kit and get a distribution block? and then can i just buy some 4 gauge wire for my speaker wire to my sub? or is there a difference between power wire and speaker wire? (sorry for the noob questions)

i LOVE yonkers its got great base. and that video is crazy i love it. the silhouettes in it are awesome.

12-16 square inches per cubic feet is the normal. How many cubes is your box after displacement? Take that number and multiply it by both 12 and 16. That gives you the range you are shooting for. ok thanks that helped a lot. how do figure out the displacement of a 45 in the port ? and if i need to change port size accordingly

can any one comment on the port volume ? please 80 - 140 leaves a big gap.

ok thanks haha i will defiantly trust torres haha. i couldn't use his calculator cause i have a mac thats like 8 years old and can't run any program so i can run windows but i graduate next month so macbook pro for me

ok thanks but i'm still confused. what i'm trying to ask is if the port it only 2 inches from the back wall of the box. and the port is 8 inches wide. should i instead use a L port?

Hey so i'm building a box for my fi 18 Q The box is 7.1 cu before displacement. and the amp i'll be running is a aq1200. how much port area should i have ? some people have told me around 80 and others have said as high as 140. so thats a big gap so i figured i should ask. and what should i tune it to, i was planning on 30 hz and advise on that ? and one final question, and its probably a dumb one but i figured i should ask any way. Say my port is 6 inches wide and needs to be 32 inches long, and my box is 34 inches deep. does that mean i would make my port an L port and have it be 30 long with an L addition of 6 more inches. Or would i just build it straight ?

some do some don't hmmmmm what about a fi 18 Q does it need to be broke in ?

No, more towards the middle of panels. Because thats where they want to flex. how many ?

yeah makes sense. do i do it any where or just in like the corners ?

ok thanks man. and is there a tutorial on dowel rod bracing somewhere so i know what i'm doing haha. cause i don't even know what a dowel rod is.
