Drop: for future reference keep all your connections as short at possible especially your ground. 0 gauge wire is perfect to run to any quality amp because it really maximizes the amp's potential.

 

yeah you really shouldnt run anything to the jumper box bigger than what already there.....grounding to the body is fine as long as you scrape away the paint and preferably use some star washers that bite into the metal so the wire doesnt move on the screw....hope you get those fi subs so you can tell me what the sound like, i am curious.

 

Thomas, I'm dropping two 12" Fi SSD's into my truck hopefully this weekend, ported @ 33hz for a nice mix of spl and sq...i'll take some pics and post them up here with what I think about them if your interested.

 

what did you pay for em? new/used? let us all know how the suckers work

 

Brand new, I think ran about 480 Canadian. I got the copper coils added on, according to the owner will let the subs get lower in the same enclosure compared to non copper in the same box. They also come with flatwind(costs extra) lets you dump more power into them. I didn't see the point as I'm not feeding them mass amounts of power, only about 750 watts per sub.

 

yaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy!!!!!! finally some first hand experience with the ol' Fi's, i can barely hold my excitement. have been looking at getting some for sometime now i have just been sceptical as there is no shop around here that has them and i rarely buy any audio unless i have heard it first. Thanks for bein the guinea pig Cam

 

hopefully 10's compare to 12's if you like those 12's

 

should be the same except the 12's might hit a tad lower than the 10's

 

and louder right?

 

the deeper notes will make the 12's heard farther away and possibly a little more on the db meter but all in all a 12" is not always louder than a 10" just hits deeper notes because the cone and magnet and spider and so on are all bigger....
