Fi.X Sub - Anyone use them?

[Jtsky 10+ year member]

I am looking for a sub that could take 4-500 watts rms. I am thinking of running one 12" Fi.x in a sealed box. They say rms is 300 watts, and I think that would be enough for me, but has anyone put a little more to them? How loud can they get in a sealed box? How is the low end extension?

You might be best served by going straight to the >>Fi Car Audio Forum there are reps there to help and other Fi customers.

That sounds like they could be a little biased, and I doubt they would tell me to put more power to there subs than it says. I just wanted to know if anyone has any real world experience with the fi.x?

Not that I've seen yet. I've asked around myself with nothing to really show for it.

It'd be nice if you could give us a review of it though *hint hint*

^^ yeah, and if it can't take the 400 you have on tap, then turn amp down.

RMS is there for a reason... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

If you want to throw that much power at a sub, spend the little extra on the SSD you cheap bastard.

I don't think the X will like that much power. Step up to the SSD.

I didn't think the ssd would get very loud if I am only giving it 4-500 watts and it says 800 rms. I think I would rather go with the fi.x anyways. I just want a review.

 

[filtor1 10+ year member]

500 watts on an X will be too much. Your review will be short. The ssd will do just fine on it though.

Where in FL are you?

Jus because you dont give the sub the rms doesnt mean it wont get loud. There plenty of subs that get loud off of power under the rms. its called efficiency(if thats how ya spell it). Do your research and find an efficient sub that plays well in a sealed box and enjoy.
