    I'm not sure lol. Just plugging in numbers to enclosure calcs which I know suck. Cant seem to get a simple box I know its only a 10" ported enclosure but I want it to look good as well. Flush mount with bracing isn't even offered as standard. I'm not saying he cant build a nice enclosure but the price seems a lil off for what you get

    It doesn't seem to be much cheaper? Plus it doesn't sound as detailed as the other one I was looking at. There is a lot of extra add on fees that will certainly jack up the price as well as shipping and the materials used for that.

    Having trouble trying to get some correct numbers on building an enclosure for this thing. I'm half tempted to buy one from here for $275...but holy fuck that's a lot. Might as well, I'm already into it for a close $1k. Plus it will look and sound better than anything I could ever build lol

    Ok so I'm thinking I'm just gonna go with the 10" Icon. I know she wants a small speaker but still wants it loud. This should fit those criteria just fine Looks like you guys are in agreement that a tuning of 32hz is a good spot. Anyone know the optimal enclosure size for a ported 10? Im assuming something like 1.0-1.5cuft??

    Thank you brother. Its step one Just made step 2 tonight. I bought the Crescendo 1500 watt amp. I tossed in a beanie too for the hell of it. Most likely will be matching this with a 10 or 12 Icon. love my 2 Icons!!! Awesome subs Ive always wanted to hear one an SSA woofer in person and now I will! It will be the 12" Icon. The amp showed up today and looks great. A lil lighter than I expected but it seems to have a small profile. Kinda like that aspect tho. Saves room for sure. What kind of enclosure should I make for the Icon? Id like quite a bit of output. I was just thinking of a simple ported one tuned at 32hz. Honestly I'm going thru a quick refresher course on the box building. I wasn't the greatest before but I think building a smaller one will work out ok.

    I've never seen those before but I think I'm just gonna go with a high powdered single driver from SSA or Fi Haha hes back!!! Ill get some pics of the car when I get the radio next week from Crutchfield too. I bought the JVC arsenal that was $140. The dash kit is back ordered of course so hopefully that isn't too long. Its mostly goin back n forth with what to put in. Not much lol

    maybe check out the DCON or possibly the GCON from the SSA store it is about the same price.. Man I cant see not spending a lil more money and getting so much more for it. I think Ill just turn down the gain on the amp lol. Shes getting the Mike with a solid 12. Not much bruh! Been awhile since Ive been around huh?! Lol just living the rat race and excited to put my kids beat in lol. Shes gonna shit her pants hearing it

    Ive been looking at this one https://www.woofersetc.com/p-12240-e-15-v2-d2-sundown-audio-15-500w-rms-dual-2-ohm-e-series-subwoofer.aspx

    Lol me too! I think Im gonna go the 600 route with a 15 tho. Its cheaper and easier plus i dont want to overdue it for her. The other stuff i can put in my car next

    Other than that, if I went less it would be Sundown E V2 15" sub and the Sundown SAE-600D.

    My daughters new ride

    I think Ive narrowed down all the stuff she needs besides interior speakers but Imma see what her stock speakers sounds like amplified 1st. The sub will be an Fi SSD 12" D2ohm. I thot about a few different options but with all her VB gear and friends, she's gonna need all that trunk space. The SSD only called for a 2.5cuft box so we'll see. Its $240 shipped The amp for the interior speakers will be a Sundown SAE 50.4. There was a few other with comparible prices but Ive owned these before and I know they kick ass. this will be $180 shipped The sub amp looks like a toss up between a Sundown SAE-1000D(Ive owned this as well) or the US Acoustics Mike. Both are pretty comparable but the Mike is $25 more. Considering one is 1k and the other is 1.5k watts, it should be an easy pick right? Idk much about these US Acoustics but if you guys can recommend them, I will most likely go with the Mike. The HU will be JVC Arsenal KD-AR959BS http://www.crutchfield.com/p_105AR959BS/JVC-Arsenal-KD-AR959BS.html?tp=5684

    Thats a nice HU. Im really leaning towards the JVC. Its got everything I need to power her system right and it has pretty lights lol

    I saw that wooferetc is selling some discontinued Sundown subs??? I didnt know they had internet sites selling them now but that place has a lot of other quality brands as well

    Not a bad deal on the alpine..But it is only a media player I do think so If you still want to play Cd's maybe go with the Kenwood. Yeah I posted that she changed her mind and said she didnt want the DVD player nor did she care if it played CDs. What kid says no tho? lol

    Crutchfield shows both will work,says a 4" double din or a 2" din for the 14 sentra from what i'm looking at http://www.crutchfield.com/Car/outfitmycar/car.aspx Damn I never knew it could be both? I'll take another look but most of the prices at Crutchfield are comparable to others. I didnt think it was that cheap. Plus they give you a free install kit usually
  18. bigrank916

    My daughters new ride

    I like the options on all these. Only $140 http://www.crutchfield.com/p_500UTE52BT/Alpine-UTE-52BT.html http://www.crutchfield.com/p_105AR959BS/JVC-Arsenal-KD-AR959BS.html http://www.crutchfield.com/p_113KDCX598/Kenwood-Excelon-KDC-X598.html

    If I had to guess, its only a single DIN thats gonna need an install kit as well. Would the whole original panel be taken off and a new adaptor in its place?

    My daughters new ride

    Here is the dash with stock radio. It looks kinda weird how it curves on the bottom part. Whaddya yall think the DIN size is here??? ">http://

    Nice to be back jay-cee! Im gettin so pumped thinking about making this system sick. Cant wait to get started. Im gonna buy a HU prolly next weekend.
  22. bigrank916

    My daughters new ride

    Check that. The kiddo doesn't even want a DVD player lol. No CD either so a regular HU it is! That;s even cheaper!
  23. bigrank916

    My daughters new ride

    This HU has everything I need and its cheaper. Is Jensen a POS? http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_77217_Jensen-DMX5020.html

    My daughters new ride

    Two Fi SSD 12s will run me bout $470 shipped. Add around $200 for the HU. Ive got all the cable and wire that I need so no need to buy that. I only really need the components and enclosure. I will most likely buy a design and make it myself. If not then the ticket will for sure be at $1k system lol

    My daughters new ride

    Oh ya i still have stuff sitting in the garage waitin for me. I sold a lot of it but kept the cable and Dblocks etc. I thinking it could be a grand when I'm done. Nothing too serious but definitely better than stock or that mainstream crap
