    4 ssa 12" zcons and 2 crescendo bc5500d box build

    I hope so because having the ZCON sealed would be silly. It sounds good in theory but getting the proper ported box in that space does not sound possible to me. it does not sound possible, however i will figure this one out! this will be the toughest enclosure design ( considering the space im working with and wanting to be ported) that i will have to do, but will do and install if he gives the ok. good thing come to those who wait, and better things happen if you let someone else take care of it. You really are full of shit in this thread. Maybe basket weaving would be more up your alley. not only can i build the enclosure and make it work!, im an awsome basket weaver too, and a basket case or anything you can think of.....

    and by the way, he has a chevy caprice and so does alot of other people in chicago! every one of those caprices have a straight accross four 12 "cheap flea market box". he is looking to out do the competition, now thats not hard to do! he just needs to let me do what i have been doing since 1993. i know of a lot of people in chicago with huge sound systems, some have 4-12" some have 4-15". i rarely come accross anyone who enters my shop with a better sounding setup and louder than mine with 2-10" xcons powered by a mmats 3000.5 on stock electrical. what im sying is that most people buy the regular stuff, kicker, alpine and so on, and they ALWAYS put the subs in a cheap assembly line built WANNNA BE ENCLOSURE. and they think its hitting. lol and more lol.... so when i build a enclosure and redo a customers setup, they are always amazed by what i have done , and done in a timely manner and at a realistic price.

    this is a good topic. warefare inc. is one of my customers, a bit confused on what he REALLY WANTS but ive been trying my best to help him out. here is what i suggusted him to do. 4 dual 1ohm zcons, 2 mmats hd4000.1, and of course a custom fully braced enclosure that i will have my enclosure guy build (ported if possible) and firing forward into the cabin and sealed off from the trunk. lots of batteries, and a 2nd alt if he can have someone do it, cause im not familiar in that dept. now some have said that getting 4 zcons in a proper enclosure will not happen, but i know my stuff and will do my best to make it happen, ported if possible, seald if not. but either way im very knowledgeable in car audio since 1993 as an installer and now the owner of a car audio shop in chicago. ill post enclosure specs when available. i know for sure that if he lets me do the whole install and completely let me run with it, he will be extremely satisfied and have one of the loudest and best looking customized trunks in chicago.

    shipping on a subwoofer?????

    i just paid $600 to ship 10 units (mix and match) and i just pass the shipping to the customer thats all. but i agree shipping sucks! they should hand deliver them and shake our hands.( that would be awsome) but on a serious note, they are well worth the extra money to have shipped. BEST SUB I HAVE EVER USED AND LISTEN TO.

    ssa made my day!

    thanks to ssa, i am now going to sell the line in my shop. i am so excited to have the best subwoofers that wont be available in my area and i wont have to worry about all of those discount malls and flea markets as well. for a long time i have been competing with those places and could barely make some dough with subs, because everyone whored the lines out! thanks to ssa i will now have the best subs around available to my customers who want better equiptment than a kicker cvr. AND THE BEST PART OF ALL IS NO COMPETITION FROM ANYONE IN MY AREA! chicago is gonna know the name ssa when im done hooking up my customers rides! thanks aaron and mark as well as the builders and family of ssa.
  10. it was a pleasure of mine to order my first but not last opening order today. i spoke to mark from ssa and he placed my order. i already sold four of the 12" zcons to a customer. mark was very helpful and even said i might get a banner if he had one, and some literature too. i am so far very well pleased with product and customer care! keep up the good work SSA! sincerely: steve from S&A in chicago

    ssa made my day!

    i had a customer who wanted fouyr 12" l7's. i asked why do you want those ? i have something way better to offer you! he said oh really? i said i could do 2 zcons in his ride and would be much better than the l7's and handle more power. he says do you have some i could listen to? i said sure! follw me, and i sat him in my lexus and let the devil out! lol . he says no way you have two 10"s!!!! so i show him and show them flexin... so i tell him i am about to place an order for some more do you want a set? he says man you messed up my plan i had for the l7"s... i think this is awsome! and definitely wby showing them i will sell them here and there. thanks for all of the comments and kind words!

    ssa made my day!

    it will work out! thanks. people in chicago , mainly around me think kicker is the best, some have four 12's some four 15's. but when i turn on my 2 10" xcons they shut up quick! i did that with my orion line and it worked, just sold a pair of xtrpro12's today for 400,so selling ssa will be no problem, espically after they listen to the set of xcons in my lexus. orion sold thier line to md audio so i will drop them and pick up ssa, which in my opinion is 10x better and price is better too! i just dont like the shipping charges. imagine spending 3k on some subs and paying an outrageous shipping charge. aaron if you see this can u please tell me what is the shipping rate for 12 12"xcons shipped to 60647
  14. I was at a car show for lexus vehicles today. I had a chance to listen to a members 1 jl w7 13 on a jl amp, i thi k it was a 1000/1. any way i just wanted to say that my 2 xcons blew away that w7 by far! of course my xcons were in a properly tuned and well built encloseure powered by a mmats 3000.5. i showed off the excons and once again i amazed everyone when they saw that it was only 2 10's doing all that damage. People were like what the f..k? Two 10's ? NO WAY! and im like, uhh hell ya it is, and opened the trunk and showed them off. I will never sell these bad boys, i love them soo much.

    my 2 10" xcons vs 1 jl w7

    i have the number! stupid me, it was on the dealer ap they sent me, and aaron sent it as well. thanks for the help guys! thats what i like, sincere adult grown ups here. but i bet there is a few bad apples too. im very close to my opening order now. so how does it work? i just place the order online as normal, and when it comes to paying ill enter my dealer info? and it will show the pricing and shipping charges. thats the only thing left i need to know. And p.s im still rocking the sh...t out of my xcons...ohhhhh yehhhhh

    my two xcons in action! flexin the moonroof.

    thanks for the replies. my rear power shade is busted completely ( i have a back up) but its not going in unless i sell the car. i love how low these subs can go! best sound quality subs i have owned.

    my 2 10" xcons vs 1 jl w7

    my questions are more geared towards shippng,pricing and afew other things. im sure ill get a call sometime. i feel that if im gonna spend money with a business i should at least be able to speak directly to a sales person who can answer all questions and take my order vs emailing and chatting back and forth. it is more professional taht way, at least to me that is. ill wait patiently for a call.

    my 2 10" xcons vs 1 jl w7

    ive been showing off my xcons alot lately, and getting ready for that opening order! my customers are impressed as much as i am. however the only downside is ssa has no numer to reach them directly , so i can get all of my questions answered directly without emailing and waiting forever. this is frustrating.

    CUSTOMER FEEDBACK SECTION for SSA

    my ssa experience is nothing less than 10/10. i must say that i was very impatient the whole time and kept checking the status every day. once they arrived the relief was over and the fun began! i purchased 2 10" ssa xcons and they are worth thier weight in gold. shipping price could have been better, and a free t-shirt would have been nice too. i still dont see the 10% purchase price back in my account yet. but still very satisfied overall.

    i love my new xcons

    I love it when these stories come to light. It was great speaking with you on the phone about our products. I am sure you are confident enough in the SSA driver lines to place your opening order. Like I said before, everyone who uses our drivers, falls in love with them. Thanks for the glowing review! i am very confident in your product! it will be a while before my opening order, but will be well worth it. my customers are used to kicker cvr's and alpine type x and so on... so getting them to upgrade will be difficult with these prices, but i will give it my best!

    i love my new xcons

    Hello everyone. My name is steve and i may be a newbi here on ssa but definitely not a newbi to the car audio scene. I have worked at many sound shops since 1993 and have owned my own shop for the past 3 years. car audio is my passion. I compete once in a while when i have time to. I just wanted to thank ssa for the new xcons i received today! They are by far the best 10" subs i have used thus far. Great sound, and loud! I have had many setups in my cars in the past and in my current lexus is 250 i have used orion 10" hcca, orion 12" xt rpro (which smoked) and alpine 12" type r's. I sold the orion hcca's and ever since that i missed them. My trunk is small, so 12's really dont fit to well because of width issues. Im working with 30 inches wide at its max. So i started searching for some better subs other than orion hcca( which were my best sounding setup) i ended up choosing the dual 2ohm 10" xcons. I have not regreted the purchase one bit! i spent a bit more on the xcons than the hcca's , but money wasnt the issue here. I just wanted something different that no one i know of have used or has had. These xcons sound better and do the job more easily as my orions did. When they finally break in im sure ill be even more excited as i am. Thanks ssa for your fine craftsmanship and service. Now if i can just get the loot together to make an opening dealer order, i can introduce ssa to my customers, and have a line that those dang flea market and discount malls cant compete with!
