Thumpper

The Icon 10" is one of my favorite woofers.... gawwd dayummmm do they drop.....

well some good news.... he got the enclosure and subs back but the amplifier is no where to be seen it's a little banged up but some sanding and a fresh coat of paint will do wonders you just can't hide something custom like this.....it stands out like a sore thumb (god some people are dumb)

nice pics.... reminds me of my old 340 Dart

my front stage lets you hear everything including the space around the recording..... the JBL 660gti's are just amazing..you can even hear the fingerprint rub on the guitar strings You should listen to a once if you think the JBL's are transparent. You'd be floored. And yes, that is what my Eclipse was connected to. No hiss. the noise floor isn't a full out hiss but it definately has a noticable sound floor presence compared to my Premier 980... I wouldn't doubt the Seas sound good..... Didn't the JBL 660GTI's take home the Euopean award for Best in car speaker system ? I could be wrong the 660's got a perfect score (10 out of 10) on SQ , Build Quality and power handling probably why my new hobby is listening to all the instrumental flaws so far they are the best components I have ever owned or heard in car

some new info from CES It is true that Eclispe has decided to discontinue selling to the retail level immediately. However the AVN 726e and AVN 4430 will be available in Canada through 2010 and will be changing in 2011 to the fujitsu brand name with a new Navigation model being introduced. All of the accesories for the Nav units be still available for purchase.

I honestly wasn't a fan of the Eclipse Head Units...I had a 7200MKll installed for a short time but the sound floor (Eclipse Hiss) drove me nuts so I put my Premier 980 back in.....

I'll post alot of Harley pics...there will be a couple custom bikes in my show room I beleive

I am now in Kelowna and am working on setting up the new shop the shop is being renovated and I hope to be back in full swing next week..... ...a full bay for wood working...a full paint booth and aprox 3,000sq ft of space for installs BTW.... I am sharing a building with a custom Harley Davidson shop..LOTS of eye candy to look at and it is only a couple blocks from the beach.......double I'll post more info once things are complete

That statement is so horribly inaccurate it's painful. It will completely depend upon the specific speakers being installed. Especially in car audio where the vast majority of drivers are designed to work optimally IB. Most companies want the consumer using their product to obtain the best performance possible from their products. Most car audio companies understand the vast majority of consumers are just going to toss speakers in their door, and as a result design their products to perform best in such an environment. Are there some car audio speakers that may perform better in an enclosure? Yes, it's possible. But to make the statement that an enclosure will "yield the tightest bass with most components and cleanest SQ" and state it as a fact as opposed to opinion (which is evident from the first part of your statement, "regardless on opinions") is simply a display of immense ignorance. It is far more likely that they were designed to perform optimally IB than in an enclosure. I also think that a tweeter should be mounted backwards...max reflectivness for the square wave X- E=MC3 crist dude...if someone states "regardless of opinion" on the internet you Don't take it seriously .....LOL it definately gave this thread a kick start though.... seriously though...some of the best sounding mids I ahve heard were in tuned ported applications (car and home) IB can sound really good if one spends the time to deaden and stiffen the door BTW.... if you drive a Chevy a IB set up will not work because the steel GMC uses creates to may - IONS and it effects the angle of the flange Merry Christmas Everyone...

some manufacturers recommend IB applications to make installation easy... regardless on opinions a sealed fiberglass enclosure would yeild the tightest bass with most components and cleanest SQ.... "only if the fiberglass is thick enough to prevent vibarating or flexing" one side effect of a pod built to small is excessive mid bass ringing so make them a little on the large side...you can always stuff them with pollyfill to eat up inner volume if mounting in the stock location I would deaden the doors and stiffen them up as well as take any restrictive material away from the speakers path

Dude. . . Read this. . .http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/index.php?/topic/22849-sound-solutions-audio-membership/ Pay particular attention to #5. My fault you would think i wouldnt make a big run on sentece like that , could have used a few commas itsokmanweallunderstandwhatyouweretryingtosay............ youalsohavetounderstandthatPGwasonhiatusforawhilebecauseitjustwentinthewrongdirectionIguessbutthat'sOKtobecausethayarenowmaking acomebackandthenewstufflooksREALLYNICEandIbetitgoesboomlikeso .............word

looks nice....... a bunch of the origional PG guys started EXILE amps to.......the Xi series amps are really nice

I'm in the process of packing up and moving back to Kelowna right now....... if this enclosure is being used it will turn up eventually BTW.....I'll still be available for SSA products during the move over the holidays but the enclosure builds will be on hold untill after new years....... (BIGGER SHOP) and 20 x the population to work with

a sad update.... this car has been stollen and the install has been stripped out probably in the Kelowna area...if anyone comes across it please contact me asap

just a bare wood regular slot port for a Fi BL 15"... 3.0 cubes plus displacements tuned at 35hz

got the LED's fixed......

the LED's fade from blue to red......I broke the leads off of a red one so I have to repalce it tomorrow then I can take a pic of it lit up in the dark

the heavy pearl combined with the florecent lights makes the paint look orange....but it's really an intense red...weird.... LOL

in a situation like yours I would go with a pair of 10" woofers ported...... you could base the cavity on the passenger side (saving leg room for the big guy who drives) and shoot an external port behind the drivers seat unfortunately I do not sell designs though.........

LOL.... I give the same line to all my friends

this one collected dust for a while...time to finish it

In did an oil change on the engine..it's the 3.8 litre doesn't really matter on the motor...it runs good..not bad on fuel and it has balls when I floor it...LOL the Exile Xi 800.4 amp has done well and I like it and decided to switch the top end amps so they are sending me another Xi 800.4 .... at 400w rms per channel there will be 1600w rms on the mids and tweets.................

as the title states..regular slot port for a pair of Kicker CVX 12" 4.0cf3 tuned at 35hz............
