  1. Is it really true they only recone stuff one day out of the week..?!?!!

    W T F!

    you guys picture some big china factory... its not like that...

    how would you do things?

    im sure its the best way.... so your hard parts dont mixed up with new hard parts. and what not.

    its a small company. that does big things,.

    I personally would hire more help. With enough practice, anyone can recone a sub.

  3. I recently picked up a used 12" SSA DCON and finally was able to find time to install it this last week. In this installation, I am running:

    Subwoofer: 12" SSA DCON single 4 ohm

    Enclosure: 2.00ft^3 tuned to 31Hz with a 4" aero port

    Amplifier: MB Quart DSC1500.1D at 4 ohms (375rms)

    I initially had low expectations, as this was my first single 12" installation. In addition, I have never used a low-power "entry class" subwoofer. After listening to this little guy for the last week, I must say that I am VERY impressed with its output and sound quality.

    I did a direct swap between a 15" Fi SSD and this 12" SSA DCON. The Fi SSD obviously gets louder, but the 12" SSA DCON is definitely no slouch and is plenty loud for the average daily setup.

    The 15" Fi SSD is one of my favorite sounding subwoofers that I have owned and I was not holding any high expectations for the DCON when it comes to sound quality. However, I was surprised once again, because the DCON sounded GREAT! In comparison to the SSD, I noticed that the DCON was punchier and a tad cleaner sounding. When it comes to the lows the DCON does well, but the 15" Fi SSD digs down deeper and hits the lows with more authority. Overall, the DCON is an amazing sounding subwoofer and can rival subwoofers that are much more expensive.

    The SSA DCON may be considered a budget subwoofer, but as for build quality, output, and sound quality, it is far from being "budget" quality.


  4. You should have twisted the rca connector instead of just yanking on them...user error, I'm sorry. My monoprice rca's are great and just need to be loosened by twisting from left to right then pulling them off the connector.


  5. Will the price still be the same?

    It will go up a little bit..because it has to.

    But it is still on par with the course considering people are paying around 200 bucks for a Chinese produced 12 that is far less of a sub.

    Taking a stab at the SA-12?

    Gotta love the SSD tho..have owned every model of it since it first came out. Best sounding sub in its class IMO.


  6. Should've built your own box..really simple to do if you just take the time to research a little about them; even easier if you use aeroports. The guy obviously didn't go off of Fi specs.. I'd try get my money back and build it myself.


  7. SOB! Right when I just recently bought one.....x2 for more info

    happened to me with the BTL lol. from now on i buy ALL intended subs at once, no more buy one now and possibly buy another later. buy em all at once lol.

    Haha well thank god I only needed one, I just like having all of the latest stuff. Gives me a reason to buy more though!
