triangle divider : that may be a good idea. I see that often in that kind of boxes.

double power ? You should test ! But I think it can be fine with big3 and another battery. It may be better to upgrade the front battery before. I did not do it like that because of the price of a battery . I did not want to change a battery in good shape. I added a Kinetic batt in the rear, and I will change the front one later ! Be careful : I'm not an expert, it's just my personal experience.

electrical looks fine. I can't imagine you need a better alt for this power ! 1500 watts is plenty for the xcon, just follow ssa recommandations. You really don't need to go bigger IMO. Post pics when done !

Sundown seems to be very busy !

You can start with the big3. You can do that yourself, at least the upgraded grounds. But get a voltmeter to check your voltage IN the car. You should not have any problem with such a Kenwood amp. I had one in the past, and I had stock electrical : no problems at all. And I did not have any additional ground anywhere !!!

I had mine in a 3 ft3 sealed box, and I loved it. Do it at 3, you will run a bigger amp someday !!! But I'd rather have the sub centered in the box.

I totally forgot to say that I'd like an express shipping, with Fedex(Sundown has very nice deals with them) or UPS. thanks again

I received the email. I'm happy they're available. I'm more confident with the SSA Store, than any others !!! So...waiting for the total cost !

I like it ! First box ? Congratulations. I hope you have something as good for your front speakers.

thanks, Mark. I'm waiting. @ Dogman : I will order only if it is in stock. I don't want to wait too long, or I'll order something else.

How do they sound on different styles of music ? Not only on rap.

A smaller box, a single sub instead of 2 : I can understand what you want. A more functional car; lighter with a little room in the trunk. Go for it !!! But you will not be louder IMO.

If you're on a tight budget for the amp, you can buy used, or some cheaper (in price) brands like Audiopipe or Kenwood, or Clarion,...etc The Audiopipe 1500 or 1800 is under $200, and it will work ! Take a look at db-r.com for great deals on used Sundown too.

The Beyma looks huge ! Midbass or midrange ? We don't see DD builds very often here. Keep posting pics pleeeeaaaaaase !!!

That should be loud ! I like it. a lot !

I want to watch this !

Well said Denim !

Op, I had a 15" xcon and now I run a 12" btl. Both ported to 32Hz. A good friend of mine has 2 15" xcon in a small car ! I can tell you the btl N2 is a fantastic driver. I love mine. It is more ..."punchy" than the xcon ! The N2 plays music very well, better than I could imagine ! My friend with the 2 xcons want to try 2 N2 now ! But he doesn't want to sell his xcons !!! But honnestly, my dream set up would be 2 xcons or 2 btls on a 3500 watts amp. I don't need . Good luck ! both options are good, but the btls will be louder, and the xcons will play better. t

and then?... results, vids,

You should use your current amp. A btl don't need 2000 watts to play. Any power will make it move. Save some money until you can get a more powerful amplifier. But that AQ seems nice, like the DC or Crescendo amps. There are dozens of amps in the market. Just buy one that can fit in your budget.

Just do the big 3 and take out that cap. You may be fine without a secondary battery. For example : I added one HC 1200 in my trunk, and now I can listen to music with the car off, without voltage droping under 12.4 v ! With only the stock batt it would drop to 12 v very fast. I don't turn the volume high with engine off, maybe at half (20 on 40 on my Pioneer h u).

Those Crescendo amps look nice, the new DC amps too. Both are cheap, but I don't know if the Crescendo are out yet. The DC are available. Get that brz if you want OP. I'd rather get a Sundown, but they're a little more expensive. You should focus on getting and building the right box for your equipments AND for your car. That will make a HUGE difference.

One amp - One sub : no problem !
