I know right! Just plain stupid!

Gonna be a slow process as it's raining, snowing etc, etc here in South Dakota.

Great job on the box! Very clean! I went to a finish nailer as well on my enclosures. Just speeds up the process.

Looking good!

Super clean install man! Great job!

eBay!

What ohm are your woofers and how is it wired to the amp? Might have something to do with other amp getting hot and cutting out.

Dang this a great idea! I'm in for a shirt!

Any model of subwoofer from Fi would outperform the Type R.

That is one sexy amplifier!

New subs and new layout. Going with the new Sundown Z15 v.2 and 2 SAZ-1000D's strapped. Wanting to do a low power high output enclosure. Have to one up the local DD/Memphis dealer and RF/Alpine dealer. I also want to do new 8" midbass in custom door pods.

New build coming soon! .... Stay tuned ....

Damn, sorry to hear about the problems man! Keep the head up and keep at it!

The Box plans are designed by JBLCamry here on the forum and are what SSA recommends. Your SSF filter should be fine. Absolutely use it. Most subwoofers are able to play below tuning. Just be careful with the volume knob and do not use any bass boost. I would not go any higher than 35hz with the DCON and not any lower than 28hz. As far as my recommendation I like the 35hz tuning because I feel I get the bost of both low loud rap style bass and the tighter faster transient attack of rock and metal. Your amp should power a pair of DCONS just fine as RF is great quality. Hope this helps!

Looking good!

Great review on an unknown great brand in SSA! Install and box look excellent!

Take a look at the box plans for the DCONS. I mainly like to port my enclosures in the 30-35HZ range, sounds the best to me. I too listen to Metal, 35 hz tuning seems to capture that double bass impact I like. It also depends on your crossover setting as well. 2 DCONS ported would be very impressive.

Holy quietness today in the hop!

So why are there so many refurbished sundown amps floating around? How many are floating around? If you check db-r he rarely has any in stock!

But of course! I'm going to get started on it today I can't wait to see the progress. It's like counting the days til christmas when your a kid lol

Well hurry up and get started .... Glad to hear nothing got damaged! Post as many pics as you can on the progress .... I have a pair of Blues 6.5" mids/midbass, would you have the T/S specs for those? PM me if you do!

Welcome ....

I was actually just looking at them in the SSA store!! An American sub is hard to find lately. I was at a local audio shop recently learning about DD 1500 series subs. The shop owner stressed DD's recommended 40 hz tuning. I wasn't really crazy about the implications of that. My system goals are transient response, punch, AND low, low end. This is why I was thinking large sealed box. How do the Dcons do in say... 1.5 cubes sealed each after displacement? The price is right, and they look GREAT. After re-reading your topic I see your looking for a 15". DCON does not come in a 15". Read my review on my 10 DCON .... OldSkool_08 DCON Build Log and Review - SSA Car Audio Forum
