Do you want a IC 2200.1 amp, or do you want Icon and Demon SUBS ? I wanted an SSA sub amp too, but they were not available when I pulled the trigger ! But the Ampere amplifier I got is good.

Thank you. The little (tiny) black amp is nice. I was going to buy a processor like the Bit One for ex, but the shop showed me this 2 in one Audison. And it's a class D, powerful enough for me : 4 x 130 w at 4 Ohms, they say... It was very easy to connect to the BMW, with all the specific cables.

Coming from a 15” sub on 2400 w I’m still impressed with those 2 10”s. They are louder than I thought on 1200w. i know they will better after some playtime.

The car :

Hi guys I’m back to show you a few pics of my install. Focal es100k in front doors Focal subs under the front seats Soon to be replaced by a pair of midbass. Audison AP 8.9 bit : hard to set up but easy to install in this car. 2 Demons 10” in a 2.6 ft3 ported box. non an Ampere Audio 1200.

Hi SSA ! I'm ordering one Demon 12 on 500 w : I want to build a ported box. tuned at 32 Hz, sub up, port back for a VW Golf. Second order : 2 Demons 10" on 1500 w, Sharing the same space. I want a ported box : 32 Hz, sub up, port back for a BMW X1. What do you recommend ? Where can I get help for 2 designs ? thanks in advance guys.

I totally forgot to take pictures of the work done. The weather was uncertain, we had to do it as fast as possible. I hope I'll take pictures on the amp install at least ! Sorry guys.

Last week-end I installed the Focal ES 100 K comp set, and 2 8" Focal subs/midbass under the seats. I absolutely need to install the amplifier : an Audison AP 8.9 with buil-in DSP, and all OEM interconnections and wires. I know it may not be the best, but it will do it for me. I put some Damplifier pro on the doors, but I had LLP for my old car and I din't use it. I hope I will be able to use it in the trunk. That was not cheap, I must use it somewhere !

Hi guys ! I bought a used 2019 BMW X1 finally. Window tint and new 19" rims (17" and winter tyres in the Caribbeans are not nice !!! )

I had an AVH 5600 (IIRC) : everything I needed and more. I have absolutely no complaint about it. If I could easily change the stock one in my car, I would buy another Pioneer, or a Kenwood (as I see people love them more and more).

I think the wiring is not the problem, it is about the settings, I guess so. It's not very hard, but you need to know what you're doing ! 8 Ohms speakers should sound better, ok, but it will be more expensive to find an amp with enough power at 8 Ohms. IF you want to play loud music in the van. I'm not an expert at all, M5 is THE guy to follow ! Good luck.

OP wants SSA mids and tweeters.

I don’t have measurements yet. I guess that box won’t be big, so it should fit. What benefit to have them share airspace? If it’s better then I’ll do it like that.

Oder completed (everything tax free !) : one set of Focal ES 100 K one pair of Focal underseat subs/midbass speakers. one amplifier with internal DSP : Audison AP 8.9 for the comp set and the midbass . With the OEM integration cables. I'll order the subs and the bass amplifier from the SSA store, of course. Thanks for the help. I'm sad I could not follow M5 advice this time. My installer is very happy with that : he bought everything from my install !!!

Hi guys, I'm installing an a new sound system in my BMW X1 F48. I want to buy 2 Gcon 10s. I will run them on 1500 to 2000 watts, and I need a serious box design for them. I want a ported box, tuned between 32-34 Hz. I think subs up and port back, in the middle should work. I don't want both subs to share airspace, one would near the port and not the other. I don't know what is the optimal size to use. I can pay for a good design, I know nothing is free !
