  1. Ya Ive seen that! :( sucks but I hope you end up getting it all together soon! I haven't researched comps much around me up in BC but there is usually a couple each year. Did you end up getting a new head unit yet Rick?


  2. Got my first noise complaint from my neighbors for playing for less than 2 minutes to check my wiring at 830 at night only. Said their dishes were rattling. I live on 13 frickin acres on the very edge of town fully treed. Same neihbours who called cops on me when I rode my sport quad in my backyard. Wouldn't be so bad but now got in a huge argument with my parents and Dk what I'm gonna do now!


  3. 10/10 for me as well :) SSA has amazing customer service and great products, love my 2 15" Icons, even on only 100 watts each they are nuts! Placed 3 different orders in last 2.5 months and i've been extremely happy with everything so far, and don't expect that to change. :) Thanks Mark and Aaron. bananaDance.gif


  4. I personally had a incriminator I 10" in a custom box 1.25 cubic feet tuned to 32-33hz with around 16-square inches of port. It was very impressive on about 400 watts. Was loud but got nice and low. I beat on it for about 2 months hard then switched it out for 2 15" SSA icons. (Will be putting it in my Lil SIS's car. Also got a set of 12" sundown e series I'm installing for a friend so I'll get to try them out. For the money the I 10" sounds as good as subs twice as loud. Had a good 1/2"-1" roof flex in my Dakota from the one 10"


  5. Stupid fucking Android.

    Battery is at 15%, and listening to music with headphones at medium volume. What does it do? Max volume alert beep that battery is low. Scared the shit out of me.

    Make sure to clean up. K?


  6. So I figured out what was wrong with the subs. Was just my memory on wiring. Using the terminals I forgot if I had the coils horizontal or vertical so it was all screwed up so I took it apart and wired it all back up to 4 ohms on my little kicker kx550.3 and wow. Sounds amazing and moves a lot of air. Will post a quick video if I can tomorrow and then another one once I get my new amp tomorrow and get the alternator and the xp3000


  7. I wasn't in any way trying to be a dick or point out that somewhere else is cheaper. I love this forum and everyone here involved. Such a great forum. But money is tight and of course would like the cheapest route.. Considering mortgage payment itself is 800 a month. No doubt in my mind that ssa isnt quality. Top notch i would say. But someone can only afford what they can afforc period. But yes and this is towards steves comment, i wouldnt have a problem with a free shipping product and one thats not for the community i love if money wasnt tight. I apologize and wasnt saying anything like its stupid for ssa to charge shipping when one place doesn't because i understand it. Buy i can only do what i can do.

    I'd agree with this but when an item is $20.00 or so more from SSA then don't eat out for 2 meals and you've paid for it. The customer service Aaron and Mark give and just caring about what they sell is worth more to me than saving 20 bucks. Where else can you ask a question after hours and receive a response in less than an hour? I just placed an order for a new XS Xp3000 and while I could save a few bucks somewhere else I ordered from SSA because of the customer service and the time they invest in this forum helping out customers like you and me. problem is when people take all the info and the time they volunteer then buy from someone else to save five bucks.

    Thanks guys


  8. Ya I decided to just do basic deadening and try it. Put up a layer of dynomat and then camper foam between headliner and roof. Helped a TON! Still have flex of course but the roof doesn't pop and sound like tin. And headliner doesn't have much audible slap hardly at all even with 2 15" icons. I know it could be a lot better but was amazed how much just what I did helped.


  9. One of my d1 SSA icons is not hitting near as hard as the other. I have them wired to 4 ohms. I followed 12volt wiring diagram for it. I tried swapping wires on one sub to change phase but it didn't really do anything, maybe helped a bit. Its been like this since I hooked them up. Any ideas?


  10. You may be able to add a couple inches to the floor some how and lay the battery on its side. here is how my extra batteries are. Batteries have one run of ground from the front and also grounded to the frame in rear. So the ground from the amp is short and straight to battery. Just a thought since your setup is similar to my current one. I think you will end up ditching the single rear seat and going length of the truck soon. You may not think thats what you want to do now but I give it 3 months till you want either more or want to change it somehow. Thats just the nature of the beast :)

    Ya that's kinda my plan. I'd rather not raise it though as the port is already about 7 inches away from roof. I'd also lose all visibility out the back. As for upgrading, I hate to think about it but ya if I upgrade I'd ad another crescendo bc2000 and wall the back adding another 2 15" icons, I'm thinking this will last hopefully for more than three months though. At 19 I gotta start planning my future now, just wanted a sweet sound system first. Gotta also fix my 1993 300zx TT and 88 rx7.


  11. Ya gotta figure out where to mount it but got a few ideas. Also ordered a couple sundown e12s to put in a friends car. :) my truck is very violent tho. Will make a video after I get the alt in, right now I can only hammer on it for like 30 seconds before I gotta turn it down cuts of voltage. Also swapped in my eclipse 36401 amp and bridged it to run my hertz hsks. Got rid of the buzzing :)
