Miakehl Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 I'm trying to decide on the subs for the next build stage of the Buick. And I'm stuck between the 8500s I have and Fi's BL series 12s.

The price for the new subs is not an issue I'm going for SQ more than SPL, but I still want loud. Suggestions?

Any word on the RMS power rating? I want right at 1000. The website doesn't say. Edit: Wait, the site says Mar012010 but people already have them? lolwhut?

R_Mac_1 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Seems like they're changing the subs up a bit. The Q, BL and SSD say coming in March. Pretty sure the Qs were 1000 watt RMS as well, they were just geared more towards SQ than the BL was. 2002 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi Pioneer DEH-P6000UB Alpine SPX-17REF 6.5" components (active) Sundown SAX-50.4 Sundown z15 (3 cubes @ 35 hz) Sundown SAX-1200D 2006 Buick Rainier CXL AWD V8 Stock Bose system 12" Alpine Type E in aeroported box Profile AP1000M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

!!!BLINKY!!! Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 The only problem is with FI is after you buy the subs and when something happens are they gonna be there with it blows and you need parts, i heard FI was haveing problems getting parts for there subs... Dont hold me to this just heard this from a compeditor friend of mine who uses FI.. Blew his 18 BTL and had to wait almost 6 months for recones.. and when he got them he said it was RE products.. But they were once the same company.. But FI is a hell of a sub just the service isnt so great... HU...Pioneer 5900IB Wireing...Stinger Amps...(1) Modded Stetsom 2K6..

Gotloud555 Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 MTx are good stuff, but i would have to do with FI Bl because those sub go get loud and lows. What great about the Fi Bl, it can be recone.. Not sure if that mtx can be recone.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
