skittlesRgood Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 holy shit, noobs unite! lol hmm... maybe the Fi subs are more expensive because they are made to take more power? dayton's speakers are actually quite good so you are just showing you dont know anything about them. the fi Q and that dayton have very similar efficiencies. so on that 300w they should be close to the same level. but none of this matters. two 18"s is a hell of a lot for a home theater setup. a single 15" in my house easily over powers the rest of the system. in a SQ audio setup you dont want any frequency range to be "hot". i can talk more about that if you want. just because you really want those subs and this is a chance to get them to you for free, doesnt mean its the correct fit for what you are doing. if you slow down and listen to these guys you will learn a lot. i see you are confident but to think you know more than everyone thats been on this earth 2-3x longer than you only proves how little you know. thats not an insult, most kids think they know it all. you know you have grown up when you realize how little you know.

Jeremy1998 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 IB subs would need a MASSIVE 'box' to get a simple infinite baffle setup. I would suggest maybe knocking that wall down and putting up 2x4s to use as studs to mount the subs to through the drywall for example. Probably a ton of options to mount them in there. We're talking in theory right now, just so everyone knows. I may not even use IB3's... But let's say that I do use IB3's... They mount 9.5 inches deep, so I would make the wall 1 foot deep. The wall is over 10 feet long, and 10 feet tall... That means I COULD have like 100 cubic feet of box space. I am pretty sure that would be enough for 2 Fi IB3 18's, correct? Also, the subs would be behind the viewers. So would it be better to have the subs: Low, where they would be blocked by the couch? Medium hight, where they would be aimed at about the back of your head? High, where they would be almost touching the celing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_racin4 Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 I had 2 18" Fi BTLs in my basement... forgot exact box size but it was around 20 cubes on verrrryy little power (sub chanell of a 5.1 system lol) it was doing 130s at 23hz i had the term lb mic where i was sitting on the couch...
