Just put it in and it is LOUD i need to do some more deadening, on top of all that ive already done. Ill have some pics soon. Its in 4cubes tuned to 32hz powered by a hifonics bxi1600d (Soon i will be upgrading the amp) it's very loud and sounds great. Just thought id give a thumbs up for the Bl, Because i don't think anyone else on here has the 15 yet. All around could not be happier. Pics soon!!

 

whats the outside dimensions of the box?? i was thinking about doing 15s but wasnt sure if i can get them into the trunk....

 

Cool, lookin forward to pics.

 

Good choice. Let us know when the supension opens up. I just sold my Q 12's to do a pair of these.

 

rockin'. would love to see some pics.

 

pics or ban

i want to hear one myself...lots of hype going on about Fi lately.

 

There pics of the Q's in another thread. Teh gay thread, if it is still around. The BL's have not been ordered yet. The Q's are being held for someone on ca till next week. I have a second person waiting to see what he does. My Diamond amp went poof, so I need to take it back to the brick and morter I bought it from. It will be replaced most likely with a ZX2500.1.

As far as Fi. Great people. I live about 15 mins from Shawn and have had numerous conversations with Scott, the owner. The Q's I had slaughtered my TDX's. They sounded just as good and got lower in the same box. I may actually go back to them if the BL's don't fit my bill. I am sure they will be louder, but they have to sound good too. I will let you guys know what happens.

 

I plan on giving the Q a shot a little later.

 

Since when do you care bout good sound? We all know your a basshead.

 

There's a few of those around....

 

Blah, BTW Juan...time for you to upgrade to a 7100

 

I have been thinking about that..... you must have read my mind . I just got the Sony MS reader to be able to put some music on the memory stick for the CD7000 though.

 

I also wanted to take a look at the Alpine CDA-9887 when it comes out. Eventhough I do not think it will be as flexible as the CD7000/CD7100.

 

yummy...but i'll be good with my AVN6610BT

 

I have em here, theyre USB too.

 

7100 is pretty nice... I'm itching to go active using my 880 though, should be nice

 

I am def predisposed through genetics to enjoy SPL.

 

Going to have to check out the 7100 now.Has the non-fader adjustment improved yet? One of the few major gripes I have about my current Eclipse HU.

 

Ill take pics and put them up tonight ill also try to get a video but no promises on that.

 

What don't you like about it?

 

What don't I like about the non-fader adjustment or the 8455 as a whole?

 

Now I'm curious... the non-fader and the 8455 as a whole please.

 

Non-fader...........


For me I wish it had a little more control....like a few more clicks.

 

Did you get it wit any options? how is it liking the 1600rms?

 

Its probably not getting 1600 but however much its actually getting is perfect. Btw I got the flatwind and cooling option.

 

I will start out by complimenting the HU. The 8455 has by far been the best HU I have ever had. The tuning options are almost endless. Pro-mode is awesome. The basic 7 band and crossover offers more than enough tuning for the casual listener.

My three biggest gripes. The non-fader is limited. It def needs a higher level of adjustment. My Alpine was far superior in this area. I was able to go from all out to a wisper with just the non-fader output. The band is very narrow and comprimise in output had to be made.

The track and volume ***** are super sensitive. With just the slightest touch, I will scroll through 3 tracks with very little input. This, however, is minor as is the next.

Along with the ESN, the face is not detatchable. Something it seems they have remedied.

 

Are your 40hrs up yet?

 

pics???
