    New front stage....need input

    Some people hook the volt meter to the back battery, their sub amp or radio. Just depends and personal preference really.

    Sundown's NEW SCV Line, now Selling.

    When is more infomation going to be available? Im interested but just telling me the amps are capped at 15 volts doesnt help much.
  3. Hey Aaron or Mark, is there a way to increase the photo upload size on the SSA Gallery? Currently it is at 2mb, no biggie if not just wanted to keep all my pictures in one place.

      I just tried and it still said "Error, the photo you are trying to upload is too big." The file i was trying to upload was only 2.4mb

    New front stage....need input

    What is your total buget for a front stage? I wouldnt add a midrange unless going active. Find a nice set of components that you can compromise with, that can give you that balance you're looking for. Or take a look at a Mini Dsp about $110 bucks to control all your processing needs for running active. A nice 8" and full range three way would be a nice setup, plus it wont hurt your wallet either. Seeing as you want a more midbass oriented front stage with the ability to have good amount of output. Just an option to look into.

    DSS Tridents and Twisted Sounds S-10. Road to 166dBs

    The white baskets are a nice touch, not bad at all. Been considering B2 amps for a minute now.

    New front stage....need input

    First step would be to treat your doors before spending money on new equipment. Usually with a mid that has better lowend there is a tradeoff and that might be in the midrange frequencies. You cant have both, going active would open up your choices to better drivers.

    help deciding

    The zcon takes more power than the xcon, subs are designed for two different applications.

    New car : should I run the front speakers active ?

    The mini dsp's dont seem to be so bad, as im looking into one myself. If you would like to be able to learn and have fun tuning your system then take the chance. If it becomes to much of a hassle or you just want to go back to passives, keep your current crossovers and sell the mini.

    Return of the BTL Ufo?

    Is that the only picture you found. Looks real good, got my attention.

    Ethos 10's physical dimensions

    Is the port going on the same plane (baffle) as the three subs? Subs OD shouldnt be more than 11", if you can fit that then you are golden.

    It is man and you been on here long enough to know that you gotta help yourself, why spoon feed you when you can simply click on threads with all this information available at your fingertips. Difference between asking for help and being lazy.
