Aperion Audio has worked out good for me..... I went with the Grand Verus towers, but they offer a more compact size tower for bedroom type set-up's.

Had my enclosure facing me with port, today I turned it around to face rear with port as well. it hits some what harder enough to make my nose feel like its shaking!!!!!! Just not sure it has the SQ still, I might try this out for a few more days then retry the forward facing again.

Xcon has arrived and placed in my enclosure. Definitely impressed with the subwoofer design, what a Damn good looking sub. It's been 2 days now and what I am thinking about when I hear it, is this thing sounds soo clean. I have my port with sub facing toward the driver. I have not tested the tones to see what hrtz end I am pushing, de finitely on the lower end of the spectrum. The Xcon is soaking up all of my Hifonics 1600.1. I have been very impressed with this sub so far. Will add pics soon, Thanks Aaron for keeping me updated through out the build and delivery. I have a new respect for a good sounding sound system rather than something that just is loud and dirty, this sub is loud and clean. Good job SSA.

Sounds like a winner!

Stick around, there are hundreds of great ideas, tips, and similar goals.

Just do what you enjoy.

SSA should make T-shirts with the rank of the forum members. i.e: ssa regular...ssa supporter level 2..... and such.

Nice. Looking foward to making my own vid's soon. How is the sound? Any thought of facing port foward or to rear? Or that is the best fit for box.

No carpet, just some paint.

Awesome. I need to update my build log after giving my enclosure a new look. All is looking good man, I like your progress. Keep it up.

Looks great! I am waiting on a Xcon at the moment, built an 7.65q enclosure for it. It is the optimal enclosure from the websites recomendations. I believe it says it is tuned around 27- 31hz. I feel ya about owning the off the shelf subs, my old set up was 2 Type-r's. Sold those so I could get an 18". I am also contiplating a second down the rhoad. Im tuned in.

May these be the same baskets that SSA is awaiting on also?

Love it man. I was leaning toward the SVS pb12 but thought the Epik Empire 15 should make me happy.... How are the SVS's?

How do they stand up to Xcons?

Just trying to get a specific size of the Xcons screw hole's. I want to attach it with Tee-Nuts but didnt really know what size I should get. If somone has this information I would apprechiate the reply. Thank you.

Excellent! I realy apprechiate the ffedback. I will find these easy at hardware stores. Happy labor day weekend.

Yes my box is MDF. Ok threaded inserts, this is great to know. I will look up the threaded inserts. Thanks a ton.

Things are moving forward. Received update of how progress is happening in the build warehouse, sorry to hear about the lost hands for help. I really do believe this subwoofer will blow my mind. I have never heard an SSA subwoofer in person, and now I am going to put in an 18" Xcon. It will be a big step up from the ol' Alpines... Still throwing my thanks out there and will post all updates when sub is fluking bumping.
