Love the build and the zebra boxes!

After a busy few months, I finally got the amps and sub-woofer installed. I made a box from 3/4" MDF to 1.2 cubes (after speaker displacement), used a 1/4 round-over bit to curve the edges, and sprayed it with Raptor liner. This system sounds incredible compared to my previous head unit and...

I have a retrosound model 2. It has plenty of modern features. Pre-amp outs, Sub channel, 2xUSB, 2xAUX, Bluetooth. I just got the amps in so I'm still playing around with it. I had a Custom Autosound US-130 and its unimpressive. It plays the radio and fills the hole in the dash, that's about...

I've finally gotten to the point in my Camaro restoration to begin the sound system install. The goals I'm shooting for are: keeping a period correct look, adding modern features (USB & aux inputs, Bluetooth,), adding plenty of power, sound quality and trying to stay south of 1500$. Head...

After contacting Fi Audio, Fi doesn't provide any type of idenifying tags, marks, engravings on their products. The shape of the sub is the only way to distingush the subwoofers. You can easily enough compare subs to say a Q is a Q or an X is an X. So, How do you know if someone is selling...

To clairify, I bought this new from Fi Audio. The photo isn't the best, it's the only one I have on my phone.

I just recently picked up a q12 sub. I recieved the sub a few weeks ago and it doesn't have any identifying tags or engravings that I can find. There isn't a build sheet or white sheet or invoice for that matter in the box. I don't have much of a trained eye on custom subwoofers. So, How does...

To clarify my original post, The reason for small enclosures is out of necessity more than trying to achieve a certain frequency. My camaro doesn't have a water tight seal on the door window. There is only a felt (fuzzy) strip between the door and the glass. By design, water drains down the...

Been researching amplifiers. I'm insterested in Zapco Z line amongst other brands. Zapco's website doesn't have a dealer listing nor does it have links to product warranty "white papers". I'm so green in the car audio arena that I'm still in the stay fresh pack. But, I've been in the dealing...

The system shaping up to be: One 12" Fi sub in the trunk and some components in the the front kicks. So, if all my digging through the interwebs serves me correct, the sub is going to handle Btw, fellow Louisianian here. Gonzales area. Nice to meet ya.

6.5" components in a sealed enclosure, is it a good idea? The ones in the attached pictures fit my camaro. I was wondering if I should stuff the components in a those little boxes or put them a free'er enclosure. Thanks, Landon

keeping and eye on this thread. Looking for a SQ amp myself. What about Zapco or Soundstream? Do they make the list?

Thanks nauc, I like the Fi Q12. Hand built, quality, good reviews, I'm on board. I'm after crisp clean bass over rattling the nuts and bolts out of my car. I've been researching the options and It seems High QTS, the "I heat ring" and a sealed box would help accomplish that goal. Should I...

Copy that. Would you recommend Image Dynamics products ?

Bump Image Dynamics seems to get high reviews in my price range. Does anyone see anyting wrong with going with a full ID system? 5 channel i5800 Pair of CTX-69 Pair of CTX-6.5cs One ID12 D4 V.3 sub.
