whats a price range i should expect to pay to get my system re-wired?
im assuming theres loose/disconnected wires cause my driver door speakers go in and out on their own n i have to bang on the door
i have an alpine headunit, 4 interior speakers n a box in the trunk.

Too much for an 8"
you could get a better 12 for that much..

Ok that isn't a bad deal.Originally Posted by MR MONDAY NIIGHT
i think this combo deal would suit you well..Originally Posted by EveryDayKicks
Ok so far this is what I'm thinking..
12" fi q
sundown 1000d
And of course a box, so whats my damage so far?
http://www.soundsolutions...SAZ%252d1000D-Combo.html
the ssa icon isn't as clean sounding as the q but gets louder.
I would just have to end up taking it to a local audio shop to have it installed.
Does it matter on the type of box or would a certain size be better?

You need a custom box for that. I don't know any good box builders in NY either
STAY AWAY FROM JL AUDIO!!

Fi is just one brand that's better. others are digital designs, DC sound labs, sundown, resonant engineering, image dynamics, incriminatoraudio, sound solutions, sound splinter, audioque, dynaudio, zapco..etc etcOriginally Posted by YoungTriz
... ive always been a JL audio dude.... thats why ive been leaning jumping towards the w7 side... what makes Fi so good? is it good for the price? or does it outperform the more expensive brands???...
I mean seriously $250 for an 8"?

You need a custom box for that. I don't know any good box builders in NY eitherBut if you find one..get it built to these specs 2.5 cubes ported @ 33 hz
But what exactly does 2.5 cubes ported @ 33hz mean?

Why in the hell did i think you were from New York?
2.5 cubes= 2 1/2 cubic feet.
My mind is fried right now from work so i pasted this from a forum..
PORTED enclosures (Bass Reflex) : A PORTED enclosure will generally have a better low frequency extension for a given response shape,but would require a larger enclosure. If you made the enclosure as small as the sealed enclosure, but ported it to gain the low frequency response, the output would deviate from the desired flat response.
Ported enclosures are slightly more difficult to design than a sealed enclosure. When using a sealed enclosure, it is difficult to be so far off as to risk damaging the woofers. In any type of enclosure, the woofer relies on the enclosure for damping. If there is insufficient damping, the woofer's cone will move significantly more than it should. The ported box will provide virtually no damping below the port frequency, all of the control will be provided by the woofer's suspension. Below the tuning (port) frequency, it is possible to cause damage to the woofer well before power levels approach the maximum power ratings of the woofer.
common tunning frequencies :
Sound Quality : 20 up to 28 Hz.
Sound Quality Loudness : 30 up to 35 Hz
Sound Pressure LeveL SPL : 40 up to 80 Hz (test tones are played rather than normal music, to avoid Low frequencies, which damages the speaker).
Its commonly used for competition propose. and not everyday driving.(unless you like listening to test tones for everyday driving).
Hope you know what frequency is

I have no idea why you thought that
but yea i know what frequency means, good looks on all the info tho

I just had my stereo friend look at it the other day. He fixed some wires that were a little loose and said it looked good but it was still cutting out when Ileft. I'm in Chicago right now but as soon as I get back in town I'm gonna give it another look
