    You ever metered it at the head rest or windshield lately? Kinda curious on those numbers not really big on the kick numbers. As for driveby you just need to test songs it took me a bit to find the right ones for me. Also your score it pretty good might get 2-3db more if you get dialed in. I think the last time i did a test i was breaking 120s so im sure you can get alot higher than me.

    2 btl's or 4 bl's ?

    The 4 BLs should be louder. Also leaves you with more thermal capability than the BTLs.

    15" SSA Xcon or 15" Fi Q with B/P option

    The Q is not a bad sub but like said before the X-con is another level above it. SQ wise i feel the x-con is much stronger and its capabilities in the spl realm surpass that of my previous Fi BL so i see no better choice for a driver. I have yet to be impressed by any driver since getting my X-cons.

    Using bolt as a speaker terminal

    Iv used bolts and i will continue to use them. I do use 1/4 brass bolts though. I have a very accurate ohm meter and i read no resistance even down to .0000 on a 10ft run of 8ga and a 1/4 brass bolt. Now if you have a 20kw system and your looking for tenths maybe but its highly unlikely you will ever see a change.

    Frequency Response

    In the proper enclosure it will be safe down to 20hz.

    Mounting Depth on X-con 18's??

    For 1 18 sealed that's great but id stick with 15s then you might be able to go ported as well.

    Badmouthing my setup

    Had the same issue at Freeman's car audio. They went as far as saying x-cons were junk and i should get w3 15"s instead. Oh and not to mention they wanted 7-800 for a 7cu/ft box

    Which Woofer?

    what kinda power you gonna have or do you have? How much room? Can it be a single 15" or do you want 2 drivers?
  12. db-r is top notch! Broken parts are replaced and they are tested from top to bottom. I wouldn't hesitate for one second to buy from them.

    Summer sale will be extended

    Best use of ~4cu and 1200 watts?

    Its always hard to put a budget on car audio. If its really gonna be hard there is always the possibility to use a pair of d-con 12s too.

    Best use of ~4cu and 1200 watts?

    1200-1400w is a little much for an i-con but for an x-con it will work wonderful. allow you a little more thermal capability while giving you a good deal more output. Dont get me wrong you can turn down the gain on the amp and run the i-con which i think is an amazing sub as well.

    so many other choices for that kinda money. ever think about an x-con or i-con

    Improving SPL

    Im gonna blame it on the box like the others are. I was doing a 145+ with 600wrms to each of my 15s. With a wall in your truck i think you should be seeing high 140s with that kinda power.

    Team Stickers :)

    I've been slacking i got mine on a couple weeks ago. Gotta go to a friends shop tomorrow he wants to take a few pictures of my car for his shop since he built the box. I should have one up later on in the day after that.

    (4) 10" SSA Dcon's

    That's not too bad man good to hear. Obviously the freeman's i went to was full of jackasses then and they also went as far as telling me my x-cons were garbage and i should get w6's =P

    (4) 10" SSA Dcon's

    Looks pretty good man. Good while back i asked freeman's about building a box for me and they quoted me 6-700 so i said screw that. If you dont mind me asking how much did that set you back.

    RE MT 18"s video

    more power.......... looks good man i need to get some new ones up myself.

    Sundown Amps.. Very Consistent output

    mine put out 2950wrms +/- 10w at a 1.8ohms all 3 times i tested it. voltage and amperage were no more than .1 - .2 different.
  23. I would say very comparable but i still love Stinger HPM. The way they twist the wire makes it easy to put into terminals and put rings on easily. not to mention its crazy flexible.
