15" Xcon amp qustion

Recommended Posts

well i have had my Xcon for awhile now and just love it ( it sounds really good right now )... i have it hooked to my Hifoincs BXi 1208d... 1200 X 1 @ i ohm... i had this amp when i bought the Xcon, it is a couple years old.. so anyway what i am wanting to know is.... will i notice any changes in sound or output if i buy like a SAZ 1500d or another quality amp that does 1500 watts ? ( is it worth the money ) it is ia a 4 cube box ported to 32hz.... i read the post on the guy who built a sealed box for his Xcon... i mite build a sealed box and see how i like it... i listen to alot of rock... nickleback... metallica type music... once in awhile some rap just to hears some real hard hitting bass.. or maybe i mean low notes...

Well it wont be the biggest difference in the world but it will be better on the sub, better quality a little more power since your amp is probably putting out a 1000 watts at the most and with voltage drops probably lower. I wouldnt rush buying the amp if it is not a main concern but I would budget getting a better amp for it though such as the SAZ-1500D (But it is on sale now).

If you already have the money, and you really want something, go buy a Sundown 1500. Like Jay-Cee told you, they're on sale, at db-r.com I think.

When your amp will die, there might not be any sale on the Sundown !!!

It's Xmas time : pull the trigger if you can afford it !

I get my X-mas bonus from work tomorrow, so i was plaining on buying a new amp with it... right now with the hifonics amp and my candance TXA 3004 playing at as lound as it all sounds good.. 3/4 volume.. ( which is LOUD ) .. i took my DMM and went out to the battery and checked voltage.. with out the stereo and the lights on 14.4 volts.... crank the stereo with lights on it goes to 13.8 volts and holds there thru a whole song that really bumps.... i have the big 3 done in 0 gauge and a yellow top optima.. and my 2006 FX4 supercrew was special ordered and came with a 130 amp alt. ... i just hit 30,000 miles.. and i have had it since late 06.... thanks for all the replys

not sure... i mite try it in my boys car.. right now he has my old rockford t 500 1bd hooked to 2 12" p3's... i will end up selling one of them... just not sure which yet.. the Hifonics really isn't worth much as you can pick them up new for pretty cheap ....

oh... qustion on the sundown....i went and looked at the online mannual for the SAZ 1500d.. it shows that like the left and right + speaker wires both go to the + on the sub... then i went thru about 5 pages on the sundown site here and some guy had said you only use one side... doesn't matter which side.. on both mono amps i have now it is like you bridge them.. so.... what is the right way on the saz 1500d to hook it up for 1500 X 1 @ 1ohm.... thanks

x2. Yeah it doesnt matter which side you will use, they are there to make dropping the ohm load done by the amp itself in case you had two subs you could just wire them individual to each speaker terminal and let the amp drop the load.
