Facekicker Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 But that said, I have a few Q series subs, and they are a great responsive SQ modeled sub that don't need thousands of watts. Perhaps there are other SQ sub options, but unless you are going all in for a SQ competition vehicle, I don't see anything in the Fi Q that will disappoint. Seems like a reasonable suggestion from your husband. edit: i misread 2002 Monte Carlo Started a build log Fi, DC, Mechman, XS Power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W140 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 I wouldn't hesitate to buy the Q for a sound quality install. Fi has done a great job developing and improving the driver over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W140 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 From Fi: The Q Series of subwoofers is our sound quality reference line. Featuring a hefty high strength single magnet motor structure with a heavily bumped t-yoke, the 27mm of Xmax allows for incredibly detailed, tight, and powerful bass. Triple progressive spiders keep the incredible linear excursion of this sub under control, while the extra heavy lead wire feeds the giant voice coil. With technology pulled from the larger BTL line the new Q has more options than ever before. Hyper chamfer, full cooling, high or low Qts topologies, as well as the ability to add an inductance ring in the high Qts design, there is now even more flexibility within the Q platform. Working well in both small ported and sealed enclosures, you do not have to give up your trunk to have strong bottom octave foundation for the rest of your system. The Q series is the new bottom octave benchmark. Sean, Anybody can read specs from a website. After reading the op's other post and threads, They seem to be more interested in "real world" application verses what the manufacture claims that driver can do.So from my personal Sound Quality experience and knowing that the op's spouse is a Basshead, I'd recommend Hybrid over Fi anyday. Then again, this is just my suggestion here. I'm sure other Sound Quality people will chime in here soon. You would recommend hybrid over Fi why? Because of the name behind hybrid? I will guarantee you Scott from Fi has put more work into developing his subwoofers than Scott Buwalda has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith77 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 If it was me... I would be looking at this sub for SQhttp://www.droppinhzcaraudio.com/af-12-p-309.html Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born. My penis is bigger than your penis I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.

I demo several Sound Quality vehicles a year to "Keep Tabs" on the competition so to speak. So when I start seeing them in the lanes, I will be glad to demo them and give my suggestions if they deserve it. You would recommend hybrid over Fi why? Because of the name behind hybrid? I will guarantee you Scott from Fi has put more work into developing his subwoofers than Scott Buwalda has.I do not run them, So why would I promote them other than seeing them in action and how well thay work in their applications ??? Hybrid is a well proven industry leader in the Sound Quality competition world with overwhelming competition wins. They must be doing something right. Anyone here disagree ?? If it was me... I would be looking at this sub for SQ http://www.droppinhzcaraudio.com/af-12-p-309.html This looks like a very nice driver.
