ZCONs & XCONs (G2) on the Store!

Recommended Posts

:woot: The Xcon is now offered in 10"

It will be a bit yet before they are ready.

Heh, and I remember a time when you said it wasnt possible, despite me begging for some. :P

You were one of the people that inspired us to make it happen :)

I'm gonna try to stay content with my 1- 15" XCON... see how that works out... :suicide-santa:

Let it break in first. :)

I'm feeling like my substage has taken over... not exactly what i thought would happen.. I think because it's sealed the frequency range is much much wider, if that makes sense.... So I hear and feel it alot more in almost ALL of my songs... Especially dubstep/dnb/hip hop .... My ICON was ported and definitely a bit more forceful cuz it made my whole hood and trunk vibrate but it wasn't constantly "on" and "in my face" ....

:woot: !!!!! Im so ready for 2 18"Zcons ! So is there some sort of preorder pricing?

You cant pre-order something that is already available for purchase plus SSA does not do pre-orders.

No T/S in the store for the Xcons. Are T/S on the "G2" the same as the originals?

Nice!

I know you guys are happy to be back in Business.

Both are really great subs, going to be hard for people to decide.

I am freaking loving the Zcons!

:dancing:

The Dcon were never out. ;)

There was some redesign that had to be done.

What kind of built in cooling? Or is this explained somewhere else?

A full cooling plug/solid pole, with an "axial" style cooling. As I said in the past, the Zcon is the counter part to the Xcon, and answer to some of the needs people wanted but the Xcon was not meant to be.

The Zcon is a higher power handling, higher capable output driver then the Xcon, but I hope people understand our model lines are not a direct line from one to the next. Reason I say this is that I notice some posts with the tone of the Zcon being a direct step up from the Xcon, which it is not as they are some what different. As in the Icon to the Xcon, there is some big differences in design and intent. The Dcon is somewhat like a mini-gen1 Icon. We don't plan to make the same driver at different power handling levels. Yes, they will all share a similar philosophy and very high standards for their respective design and purpose, but they are all different in their own right. :)

No, not that much really. Cooling adjustment is the main change. They will play and function perfectly fine with the other Xcon's, in case anyone was wondering.

Good to know since i may be adding another 12

To lay it out nice and simple for people, we just upped the thermal limits of the Xcon a bit. All moving parts and the mass majority of the motor stays the same and looks identical. :)

So the whole pole is plugged to make it solid?

It is a massive solid pole on the Zcon. That motor design uses a very large amount of steel.
