  1. Its a crew cab truck and yes the icon is in 2.5 cubed at 32hz. Its the kaotic single ported 12 box from the ssa store! For most people this setup is more than ample but i just wanna run a 15 really.
  2. the icon is awesome dontget me wrong! thing sounds amazing and gets loud! i actually have thought about a 15 icon
  3. i also plan on tuning my next box low! like 26-29 hz
  4. plenty for 3-5 cubic foot box. u ever heard the ssa icon? just wondering how the bl compares

    upgrading component woofer?

    Yeah hes workin me up some prices as we speak.
  7. i have a set of Polk dxi 6.5 components in the front doors of my truck. I really dig the tweets and over all they sound pretty good. ive done a fair amount of deadening and sealing of the doors. They are being powered bye a jl xd400/4 gettin about 75 watts rms. Would it be worth a shot to upgrade the woofers with some thing with a little more extension? Mid bass isnt bad for what they are now,but could be better! is there any limitation of the woofer through the passive xover or does it just block bass from the tweets? An active setup is my ultimate goal so purchasing a better mid woofer is not a bad idea anyway. just wondering if anyone has upgraded a component woofer..

    upgrading component woofer?

    I could probably cross them a bit lower with a steeper slope but they are pretty safe where they are.. Wish i knew someone who does glass work locally as id drop another set of 6 n a halfs in the doors.. Whatta you suggest for deadener? The doors are sealed and dynamatted around the driver but i want to deaden the inner and outter skin.. Secondskin? Murdermatt? What do you sugest for mass?

    upgrading component woofer?

    what do you mean by artificially crossing over the system, M5? i have a 4 channel thats driving them now and my head unit is capable of the "active" portion. going active is soon to happen. justwanna dial in what i have now before beginning the next phase of the build.
