    My wife drives a 2003 Honda Accord V6 sedan. She has a 300 watts RMS at 2 ohm on the 5 channel amp and wants a sub. I was on DIYMA and someone suggested I look into the 12" SSA DCON. I read the specs and did some searching. The price fit our budget but my question is...how will this sound with 300 watts at 2 ohm in a sealed for example 1.0 to 1.20 cubic ft sealed box? I read that people prefer the ported box but I am looking for something sealed but I am open for suggestions. I was looking into one of these: Single 12" Sealed MDF Enclosure (12SQTC) 12" Sealed Subwoofer Enclosures Sealed Subwoofer Enclosures Car Subwoofer Enclosures Car Subwoofer Installation &am…

    .... to talk car audio & increase my mobile electronics knowledge. CA.com has turned into a cesspool, need a new home. Old school amplifiers are what I love: ZED Audio, PPI Art, etc. I'm a SQ guy, excessive bass doesn't really do it for me. ---Jacob

    Hey everyone, I've been on this forum for quite some time but didnt post much, looking to change that. Several of you may already know me as donpisto on other forums. Call me don, donpisto, or by name Levon, it doesn't matter to me. Just wanted to formally introduce myself. Cheers!

    I found this site while researching the effects of impedance rise. I am working on building a system and trying to learn at the same time. I am buying a HDC3 15, my box is 4.5 cubes tuned to 38 hertz, kerfed port with 74.25 inches of port. I have a Hifonics 2010D amp 1/0 gage wire (double runs). Still have a ways to go, but like i said trying to learn.

    Hello all. Just checking in. I'm one of stratusrt01's buddies. Came over from ROE. My current setup is.... nada! Have a brand new Tiburon that myself and stratusrt01 will be filling with goodies when I get back from my deployment. Blank slate, deployment money, car is a hatch, possibilities are endless! Like the site setup btw. Very user friendly compared to some others.

    Hi all, member on CA.com and admin for Mobileaudioforum.com. Always looking for more places to hang out and don't mind being put in my place from time to time. I'm also an active-duty sailor and more what you would consider a "SQeer" as we've coined it on MAF, but I don't mind getting loud from time to time.

    Hey guys this is a great forum,usually I just look around and dont post but figured that I would join in. My first system was a kicker l7 and a kenwood amp probably pushing 4-500 rms. Now I am getting more into audio than ever....right now I have a FI Q 12 and just preordered a sundown sae1200, cant wait to hear what sound quality sounds like.

    Hey guys, I messed up in the past on Meade's board and let my anger get the best of me. I don't start problems, but I can't help finishing them when I get pushed. I was the xXxOuTLaWxXx, but I would like if somebody could change my display name to OuTLaWeD. I'm sorry if I have offended you in the past, but I ask that you don't bring that stuff here. Thanks guys

    Whats up guys, I am a member on my.is and someone recommended a SoundSplinter sub, went to their website, and found my way over here.. Great forum you have here.. Just can't decide if I want 1 10", 2 10", or 1 12" lol.. Just want clean bass since I listen to all sorts of music (rock/rap/sometimes even country) but I don't want king kong in my trunk.. 1 10" RL-i sufficient for my needs you think? With a sundown sax100.2 or a sae1000d if I go with 2 tens or a 12? Thanks in advance, Gary

    New to this forum, not to audio forums though. Just signed up because this seems like it could be a very useful resource. Also, I'm interested in acquiring some RL-i8's.

    hey whats up fellas, new to the site, and a little frustrated and impatient lol, for a minute i was so positive with the sub i was going to go with for whatever reason it was, but basically it was suppose to be a single aq hdc3 12" and now i dont know if thats the sub i should go with, after searching on various forums and this one, i hear that the aq hdc3's might not be what im looking for, but anyways here is what my status is: 2000 cadillac deville using a sundown audio 1500d amp, $400 budget for sub(s), a blow-through pete kulicki designed box, used as a daily driver, and for the box 3.0 to 4.0 cu ft is what i have to work with due to the fact that i have a daught…

  23. Started by JohnHinerman,

    actually the suburbs of Detroit, but anyway. I found this site and have picked up a lot of good info. I used to be pretty big into the mobile audio seen some years ago. I worked for an audio engineering and consulting firm starting my senior year in HS and learned a lot about audio, way more than most people even want to know about. I've chose to forget a lot of it myself lol Anyway, I've always been into audio systems but as I've grown up some I just haven't had the time to stay devoted. But along comes a new vehicle, and it is time for me to start things off again. This is a great site, and so far everyone has been very great and welcoming, glad to be here. John

    Hey guys I'm new here and found this site via many recommendations of SSA subs. I currently have a single eD 11Ov.2 being powered by an Alpine MRP-M500 in a 1965 Mustang. I learn more and more everyday that a 44 year old car is just not mean to handle a system (even a small one) and that is why I feel like I am constantly upgrading stuff lol
