  1. Was looking for a bad ass sub. Thought that would be a sundown. Was directed here via the all powerful interwebs. looking at subs in the store and just happened upon the forum link. Been here soaking it all in ever since...btw I never got the sundown sub :(...I am running SSA!!!:)


  2. A with gain setting if you are unwilling or unable to upgrade your install. Turn gain on amp down, set volume to whatever volume level you want to be able to turn it up to, set gain at new more impressive volume level, call it a day...If your friends still aren't impressed get an ssa sub ;)

    have them secure like this with a little velcro for daily driving. Still playing with positioning. Can't say enough about how amazing this setup sounds. So glad I went active.

     

    Next up...fiberglass!


  4. I know! Its crazy! The xcon also blends so well with my new setup its unreal. I have sat a few people down for a demo and the reaction has been the same so far...Holy shit that sounds amazing! Then they run and grab their favorite music to hear it in my car. lol or I get damn I bet this song would sound amazing in here. I love it! :)

     

    The new setup also sounds great at low volume levels which I am very happy with


  5. I just got my first 2 way active setup hooked up this weekend and I am blown away. I have an 80prs and couldn't be happier. I love having the controls in the dash and if you are familiar with pioneers menus it is a breeze. If not it just takes a little time playing with it. 

     

    The advice on drivers I got and am happy I followed was stay away from exotic cone materials, especially for your woofers. A good paper cone is easier to tune and make sound decent from what I can tell.  Also, if your stock door locations suck like mine, it will help TONS to have a tweeter that you can cross low to help pick up where the install inhibits the woofers. 


  6. Not bad sir. I will probably try them sealed so I can have room in my trunk for my golf clubs but knowing me I will want more. That will give me another project in a few months i guess...what do shops usually charge to meter your system?
