Hookedup12

I have a single 12 dcon on 400w in a sealed box I was thinkin of either gettin another dcon and have two sealed or port this dcon now and then later switch to gcon??? Either way I have to get a new box sub and amp. Which would be louder the gcon will get 800w rms at least and the two dcons would get around 750-800 aswell

I have a single Dcon 12 right now in a Starr mountain sound box tuned at 33hz (i know its not the box) and its on a Boston's acoustics gt2125 bridged for 400w but I got it tuned way down prob seeing a honest 200w if that and it has this buzzing noise right behind the dust cap almost like a rattle only on the higher notes (low notes you can't hear it) I have the lpf at 70hz I wonder if turning it down further will help but I've had it in two different boxes and its done the same way in each one and I can't seem to fig out what's going on It sounds as if I set a screw on top of the sub while it was playing.

Pull the driver out of the enclosure, and check the felt pad on the back of the cone. You can also try lightly applying pressure on the cone, and see if you notice any scratching noise from the voice-coil rubbing. I pressed down on it equal force all the way across and it feels smooth as a baby's bottom, I can't seem to catch a break and I don't wanna keep pulling it in an out of this box because I don't wanna put holes all around the mount and really get a leak or something if I pull it out of this box I won't put it back in until its perfect or I have a different sub because I don't want to run into messing this box up. I don't want to have to get another sub but I don't know what else to do I'm in a situation like I'm damned if I do and damned If I don't

Tried the glue and it did not help. Still making the noise I'm not exactly sure what to do about it. Nobody in the surrounding counties does recones so that's not an option. Any advice?

If tape helps what would be better to use the ca glue or epoxy??

Good idea with tape. Ill try to tape it down Tomo and aside from the rattle it Sounds amazing. It gets so low.

I also thought this I don't want to mess with it before I hear from ssa because I don't want to start messing with it an not be able to eat some kind of warranty or something. Would I be able to fix it with out completely taking the yay cap off? Possibly putting a bead all the way around the cap and letting sit to harden???

I got a American bass hd2500 I was thinking of picking up a gcon and running it at 2 ohms I've got a custom built box here at 2.3 cu ft air space and tuned to 33hz will it be enough box or would it be better to get the icon.

I think i Will go that route and i can use the same box when it get my gcon if i even want it!! thanks guys

I have some pioneer speakers that rms at 40w and I have three amp choices that are in my price range what would be better Mb quart onx4.60 @$99 Alpine mrp-f300 @ $149 Kicker dx200.4 @ $149 Please help

My dcon finally shipped I'm gonna do an unboxing on YouTube when it arrives stay tuned thru out the build. I'm excited.

Btw I'm kidding if you couldn't tell lol

No only videoing myself as I take the sub out not the sub. Only my reaction. To the sub. Lol. Why. Does. It. Matter.

I have the option of a Alpine mrp-f300 Or Focal solid 4 black What is going to be the better buy, on paper specs on alpine are better but in a real world situation I hear focal is the shiz

That is flat out wrong. And who is "everyone" anyway? Majority of the research I could find

I don't know I like the idea of alpine cause its new but everyone is still sayin I'd get better sq out of the focal

Yeah totally understandable, appreciate it man. Cool, glad were good haha. To your thread though, you won't hear any difference between power of them, because they are almost put out the same power. I can't remember, but I think I did have an alpine amp like that. Not sure if it was same one but it was a 4 channel alpine. It was a awesome amp. I liked it! Yeah no prob man lol common mis understanding!! I'm still stuck its hard to honestly say a lot of ppl say focal but then I'm like on paper the alpine looks better and it's new idk though.

Yeah totally understandable, appreciate it man.

Focal is used and alpine is new

$140

Haha I'm impatient dude either way aint no need to get upset about it. Plus I've got about six tabs up I bumpd the wrong post I meant to bump on a totally different forum.

Bump

This dude on another forum has a focal 4 channel and if that falls through ill get te alpine.

Did the miss and highs sound good off this being class d and all?? I was leaning towards the alpine anyway

Or Mb quart Ref4.50 for $89???
