dman1049 Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 How does Fi compare to mainstream products? say a kicker cvx 12", l5 12" or l7 12" , or rockfords p3's 12" or t1's 12" to a Fi ssd 12? ive never went outside of mainstream and everyone i know localy says its a bad idea to stray from mainstream products and they wernt happy when the strayed from the mainstream. ive never heard an Fi subwoofer in person just internet and ive done all the research i can to compare, is Fi really a good company or are they just slapping stickers on their prducts when in actuality its really a cheap crappy Chinese made product?

chapo123 Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 WOW. trust me man. fi is really good quality. way better then main stream. and plus when it blows (if it does) you can recone and get a brand new sub for about 100ish bucks.

Sure you may be fine and nothing happens but that one time something does happen you're fucked. i dont want woofer broke like bass sound clip clip and voice coil overheat 2 sa12s, saz1500 build log http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/91183-chapo123s-sundown-build-log/page__gopid__1250604entry1250604 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E a r t h Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Absolutely NO comparison. Fi=shrimp & lobster, mainstream = cup of noodles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricR Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Just buy one you wont regret it. Quote i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

TeamHT Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 The problem is when you break away from mainstream but try to stay cheap. FI is a nonmainstream brand that will kill the competition. You're comparing assembly line massed produced mediocrity to hand assembled making love quality. Nonmainstream is bad when get soundstorm etc Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?
