    Fi SSD's with 400-500 watts each?

    If i remember correctly there were issues with the sub being sealed and playing for long amounts of time. Forget who scott was talking to, but his ssd's were having problems heat issues from the sealed enclosure. agree on the copper coils.

    My Monsters!!

    I am not sure how many subs to use in my dad's home stereo. I may just give him all 6 & try and use them. I have 3 cubes to work with roughly, thinking of using PVC pipe and incorporating that, possibly making a t-line for each, though I couldn't taper the line. Just looking for any help, because I don't know whether to seal them or try porting with a t-line or a bandpass of some sort. I have a 15 x 24 x 22 area to work with, but I'm going to be mounting my 7" Dayton mids & peerless tweeters also, the face is 15 wide x 22 tall, depth is 24. I'm just looking for any ideas right now.

    My Monsters!!

    So I'm going to be using these little monsters in my dad's stereo & possibly in my own. I figured I'd show you guys some pics of them & ask for any ideas. I'm going to give my dad 2 & use 4 for myself. My question is what kind of enclosure should I use. Mainly asking about the 2 for my dad, I have never built for home audio & am working with a fairly large room. The rooms 20 x 14 with a 17 ft ceiling. Just looking for any help or links at all. thanks, nate the army!

    I'm just stressed, I also have an amp that was supposed to be here last week that's still not here, but that's just cuz UPS always screws corey on shipping stuff to me. Anyway, I'm sure once scott finds something out he'll let me know. Scott makes this whole situation a lot easier to deal with.
  11. Great guy that cares about not only his company, but his customers!

    2 20" subs. Need a box size ideas.

    If you're putting these in the house, maybe try and free air them in the ceiling. good luck on your project, seems pretty cool even though it's going to be hard!

    Thank you again scott, I'm not mad or anything, just trying to keep you informed as you keep me informed. I was wondering if I possibly need to go to the post office to pick the sub up or something, but I got an order from PartsExpress saturday & it was around 70lbs, so idk. thanks again for all your help! nate

    Depending on the day it was shipped & if it takes 9 days then I could see this as being not here yet possibly, that's if it takes 9 days to ohio. Not shooting you down, cuz I saw your thread, but I don't want to think about my sub being stolen right now, lol. Tomorrow would be the 9th day btw, if he shipped later than he said, which is fine, but I don't take scott to not tell me what's up, not like him. Anyway, not making this a bigger deal than it is, just askin for some help. nate

    Us Amps AX-5600 Questions

    Can we get pics of how the hu was grounded exactly. I'm running the 880prs and have my own ground, 8 gauge, still have noise. I've also switched rca's, but continue to have issues.

    Perfect amp match for two ssd 15's

    Ooops, forgot you had mentioned those amps jim, those amps are also very good, didn't mean to put those down, my bad.

    Perfect amp match for two ssd 15's

    You can have a 1500D for 400 bux, check the f/s section, I know Corey Anderson is selling a 1500D bnib basically for 400 shipped or less iirc. He's a sundown dealer btw! The amps you mentioned and other amps mentioned are a far cry from the 1500, so I would stay away from them. good luck

    Cheapest amp

    For decent cheap power, there's a lot of crap, but profile will give you their rated RMS, unlike most other amps in the price range. used will be your best bet, check the forums like stated & make sure to get all the information & take all the precautions you can so you don't get ripped off/scammed. good luck
  24. I can believe their the same board, but def. not same power. For instance & to toot my own horn. Soundstream 10K amp has exact same board as Lanzar Opti 6K, if you look at the amp guts, the opti is a lot beefier & has been show to outperform the 10k. I would say the same can be said for the sundown, cuz I remember RD saying the amp wasn't doing rated power & "decided" to get rid of it. While the 1500d is def. underrated & doing 1800 on average. Not fighting, just sayin man. BTW i remember the thread you made on ROE & was not shocked, but crappy you went through that & glad you made it known.
  25. Glad you asked this question & honestly everyone in here has acted more than mature, a word rarely used when referring to RD. There has been a good amount of iffy actions taken by RD that are known
