Recommended Posts

Well this is the start to a slow build first things i got in. Gonna do all electrical first with 2 runs of 1/0 to the back probably one big ass 210ah battery i found in the back on top of a 220+ amp alternator.

Been talking back and forth with Aaron from SSA and it looks like ill be ordering the x-cons soon. I think im gonna stick with the 1200d for a bit till i can upgrade completely but im sure with 700+ watts they will still move some serious air and sound damn good doing it. So if you guys know anyone looking for a 15 BL d2 ill have one for sale for 240 + shipping. only 4 months old too

Just ordered the X-cons tonight with the concave dust caps and the box will be designed tomorrow. Found a local guy who is gonna make it and even glass the box for under 300. Ill be sure to post pictures by this weekend of the box and then hopefully all the wiring i gotta do still.

I don't think you have anything to worry about, the amount of amplifiers Jacob moves with no problems compared the to small few that have an issue is really good. :)
