Yeah man!! Give me until the weekend. My build isnt cleaned up yet since getting a new amp, but I will still take pics. Just dont freak at the wiring and amp just chillin, I don't always do that haha

Old thread, but just wanted to say how much I love mine too. I have an older model 12" ssd with "BP" power, D1, in a 2.5 cube 35hz box. Im running 2ohm on a AQ2200D and love it. I get a lot of people on demos who love the capabilities of this price range setup. It is really impressive, and some people who do not know much about car audio are shocked when I pop open the trunk, and all they see is one 12"!

please delete this topic.

thanks! lol.

Dang!!! old thread, but I guess lancer dude over here isnt on here, or has not paid attention!!

Sorry for keeping you on edge man!!! Sorry sorry sorry!! lol. I just got home!! Thats what I failed to mention, it is slightly (very slight) below 35 hz so Im good on that. I knew not to mess up like that again (that was how I ruined my first system years ago). I figured I was just worrying about it, but I just wanted to be safe on this new box setup!! Thanks for the help guys!! -Chance

Hey guys!!! So I am currently running a box built from Dave the box guy. Its 2.5 cubes after displacement, tuned at 35 hz. I have a the ssd with flatwound and bp power, a 2010 model. Anyway, I LOVE the way this thing sounds. But I got to thinking.. I know that Fi Recommends the max ported box space to be 2.5 cubes, and thats what I run. But I am still a novice, and got curious about mechanical handling... Would running this at 1000 watts rms daily (MB Quart ONX 1500.D amp) be okay to do? Cuz thats what I am running, with the amp tuned as well. Just wanted to make sure that may check out okay, or do I need to reduce my amps tuning? Thanks guys! -Chance

Wow I did not know you guys had all the stuff in house.. Thats completely legit! Some companies to check out if you ever expand the promotional/printing world would be Graphic solutions Group, 4over, and Grimco. They offer various wholesale stuff. Thats who my boss goes through. GSG has some great deals ( I know this cuz my boss is a tightwad lol).

Anyone done a fiberglass build in a mazda 6 sedan? I have this idea of putting my 15" ssd in the center, behind the seats, with two 6" aeroports (one on each side of the sub). This would be firing into the cabin. I have my rear seats down 90% of the time, so I would imagine it would sound great. Anyone done it, or know how? I am looking for someone to take on this project for me, as I have never done it, and wouldnt quite say I have the time to do it either.. Anywho, im in Keller Tx and if anyone is interested I am willing to pay. Im looking to stay in the 3.5-4 cu ft. range, tuned at 33-35 hz. Im rocking a 08 mazda 6 sedan (not the cool hatch model). If you need anymore details let me know. Thanks, -Chance

+ a million on the ssd. Im running a 15" ssd with BP power in my mazda 6 Sedan and it sounds GREAT. I get a lot of wows from people on how "loud yet clear" it is. Im running a mb quart discus on it at 1k rms and it takes it just fine, even with the gain tuned a little under halfway with an o-scope. I live in Texas, which is typically hot in summer, and I have only heard it clip a few times when it is really hot out (whether coincidence or not). The even funnier part is its not even at its full potential, cuz I have the sedan model, and the box was too big to fit how I had planned. The sub is pointing straight up on the panel, and I am pretty sure it is taking away a lot of the energy of the bass. The only person that didnt like it was some dude with two 12" Alpine Type R's. He "was not impressed" I tend to ramble a lot on here when I get off work.. So long story short, amazing and definately under rated sub.

Ohh dude thatd be legit if I could check it out!! Yeah dude I am down for that.. Sorry for the late response. Txt it when your down sometime, we can meet up 817-944-2387

Bump?

@Theluker: I have actually, and I will more than likely do that, with time! My next big thing is a head unit.. I am still running on the stock one, and I am ready to move on from it! I just like asking a lot of questions, so I can get an idea of things. @watts09: For sure man! I am always keeping it in check, esp. now that it is summer time. I reduced the gain on mine for the summer cuz Texas summers are super hot. I would imagine all that heat is not good for it. I have already started clipping on a few songs that I havent played in a while. Idk if that has anything to do with the Texas heat or not, or just because I havent heard them in a while to know.. But I decided to reduce my gain today, as it would never clip on hardly any songs. Maybe its in my head? Pretty sure I heard it clipping for once today though lol. (I am very paranoid on blowing mine btw) I used to be stupid with my old system, and blew it a year ago or so. I decided to learn some things, and get more in tune with sounds and smells! Im rambling again. This is what I do after work B-)

Lol. I do not own one yet, but I was considering it!! I want one sooo bad! I will probably save cash for a while and move up to a btl. My MB Quart Discus is doing pretty well so far. No telling what the true power is, but until I get a better job or money is free, I am stuck with this lol.

I know this sounds crazy and out of this world, but I have gotten bad rcas before... I have not read this whole post so sry if that was brought up or if the problem was solved. My rcas started shorting, and then they wouldnt play as loud,t hen they quit working one day. I bought new rca wires, and it was perfect.
