not to be a "bandwagoner", but is it safe to say that an Fi Q 12" would be theee sub to get under 300$?? right now i have a 10" type X in a small sealed box... and its just not very satisfying and i am just dyyying for a change and a hard hitting/loud sub with comparable sound quality that i can actually afford

would be running off an alpine mrdm1005 amp at 1000 rms

definately open to other suggestions but the Q seems like a perfect fit for a buy in the near future

well its comparable if not better than the 05 re xxx, arguably one of the best SQL subs out there, in numerous forums...and for under 300 i would say get it

ive never heard a xxx,but for the money the Q seems to be the most logical choice for me - but which should i get - the "dual 1" or "dual 2"?

and question #2 - what site would be the best for looking into how to build a box? itll be a first for me, not really sure how hard it is to do... id like to do a ported/vented box and i saw that muddy u had posted a diagram disigned for a 12 Q - worth me trying?

Get the 12" and use muddys box. It should be sick. I too am getting one soon, but I cant decide whether to do the 12" or 15".

Dual 1 = .5 or 2 ohms...

Dual 2 = 1 or 4 ohms...

that box i made took me a WHILE to make...b/c i wasn't familiar with subwoofertools and how they cam about with their dimensions.

i picked right in the middle of the ported recommendation...b/c it it pretty impossible to get a 30hz tune with a box any smaller than like 2 cubes and it be worht a damn.
also that box design is the only one i could get with 2.2cubes with a 30hz tune w/o the port looking like a g*y MAZE, which in my opinion...is a bad port...for turbulence...too many bends....i only want 2 bends in my port. lol:-)
