ok so here is a video i made in my shop of my ssa 10" xcons. i did this video to show what the spl was inside. hope you enjoy it. click on my link. http://s668.photobucket.com/albums/vv43/stevelobello/?action=view&current=20120509_123829.mp4

i kinda figured that, a nice true 3500 watt would be awsome! a perfect match for my xcons......OH YEAH

thanks! i wish ssa had an amp line, i just might try one.

i took a nice lond drive from chicago to calumet city. i was banging the sh...t out of the xcons all the way there. MAN OH MAN! these bad boys finally broke in on the way home. it was insane! the bass was hitting soo hard and loud i was like what happened? it sounded like i magically upgraded to another 1000 watts in power, which i didnt. and i agree with nineball about bieng the best 10" subs. like i said before i had 10" orion hcca's and they sounded great but the xcons on the other hand blow them away! these 10" xcons ( if in the correct enclosure and properly tuned with full bracing will easilly blow away a set of 12's that most people can buy. my 2 10" xcons sound like 4 twelves, NO JOKE! and when i show my customers how loud my setup is (before letting them know i have two 10's) they guess and always say 4 twelves. and when i show them whats in the trunk THEY ARE AMAZED AND BLOWN AWAY! LITERALLY THAT IS. I im gonna meter my ride with my audiocontrol and see if i doing what i did with my old orion hcca's which was 140.5db. ill post a video on my photobucket account and put up a link here. AND IF 10" ZCONS WERE MADE I WOULD BUY THEM TOO! i am currenty getting the funds together to buy 12 units

the pics are above. did you see them? and here is a link to a short video, excuse the terrible volume! http://s668.photobucket.com/albums/vv43/stevelobello/?action=view&current=20120503_152337.mp4 and i have a guy i use to build all of my enclosures. he is out of michigan city and builds enclosures for my shop exclusively. i could build them myself but too much time spent actually in installing alarms and remote starters and sound systems. besides my back is shot and i cant lift sheets of wood and do strenuious work. we build enclosures for all types of subs, tuned and ported to specs, 2" front if needed and fully braced.

The xcons are sounding better as each day passes. Man these subs are really awsome! No smell to em like my orion's had. These babys are begging for more, and if i had better electrical in the ride i would give it to them (warranty issues is why i dont upgrade the alt yet) gonna have to wait 5 more yrs to do that. But anyway these xcons outperformed just about every other sub i have tried, as well as my customers too. My 2 xcons sound soooooooo f.....ing AWSOME! maby ssa will have the zcons available in 10's soon.

Welcome. I wanted some zcons, but they were not available in 10" so i got the xcons, and i am very satisfied. You will love the zcons im sure.

i use a mmats 3000.5 for my 2 10" ssa xcons. mmats will do true rms at 13.8 volts, they make a 2000.5, but not for the price you are looking for, most lower quality amps cant do .5ohms so may i suggest saving a bit more and buy something that will be true rms and last you!

here are some before and after pics of the install.. the xcons are d2 wired to .5ohms , powered by a mmats 3000.5, 2 runs of 4ga, 2nd batt (kinetik 1800) in rear trunk, on stock alt, enclosure is 2.63 net internal volume after displacement tuned to 33hrtz. here is a lil video while i tuned it, the volume did not turn out good! it is a direct link to my album. http://s668.photobucket.com/albums/vv43/stevelobello/?action=view&current=20120503_152337.mp4 my old orion enclosure thanks for looking and the comments.

There is some pics in the "how did you guys find ssa" not sure about page # maby close to 58 or so. I will do a video tomorrow and post it to youtube and on my photobucket account. I made one earlier but the sound on my phone was terrible. Thanks for the welcomes.and replies

Hey there! Im from chicago too. I have 2 xcons 10" dual2 ohms in my 08 lexus is 250. Just got them installed today 5/3/12 . I love them! they sound awsome and surely take the abuse im hitting em with, A mmats 3000.5 . I cant wait till they break in , so they will be louder. But anyway welcome and enjoy the ssa. And if you are near 3725 west fullerton chicago il, then stop in my shop and ask for steve, maby we can check out each others setups! ive been installing since 1993 and have a passion for car audio and loud systems. And once again thanks ssa for my new xcons!

ok, the xcons arrived today and i installed them in my custom enclosure. they sound great and are easily taking the mmats 3000.5 . very happy with them overall. and cant wait untill they break in. they get a bit warm when i touch the cone, should i be concerned with that? and thanks ssa for the awsome service and product!

Was searching the web for a better 10" pair of subs. I had previously owned orion 10" hcca. I sold the orions and went with 2 12" alpine type r's. I really missed the 10" setup i had so i started searching and found ssa xcons. I have read nothing but good reviews for the ssa xcons, so i bought them. I own a car audio shop so if all goes well i hope to get the line in my store. Ill be getting them in my lexus is 250 on 5/3/12.
