ok it is time to start on my box for the new sub i ordered.... now bear with me i am not great at figureing all the math out.... so anyway ... i went and took some measuremeants..... i am looking like i can fit 20x 20 then the hight i was trying to stay about 23.... so that gives me about 4.25832.... now here comes the part harder for me.... if i go say 18.5 x 3 for the port at 32 herts.. which then says 30.366887 long.... how much cubic ft. would the box have now ? with the port and sub displacemeant... i think i read the sub would be like .2 .. now i can make the box taller.. but the 20x20 well need to stay the same if i use the room i was p…

I currently already have a kicker 750.1 amp... is it alright to power the Icon at that ? or should i sell the kicker and get the sundown/ssa package thanks

the car the box design from sound=vibration thanks but it was too big trimmed down about 2inches and added it to the back making bigger cutouts to fit lanzar optidrive mids w/ tweets box couldnt fit with my altima mat! amp mounted w/ battery holder all knukonceptz 0ga wires, terminals, krystal kable RCAs, except a little 4ga monster cables

Hey guys would 1.2 cu ft sealed be alright to run this 12" xcon sub with 1540 watts rms?

Ok I think it was last sunday. I was delivering pizza, I had just been listening to music not loud while I was taken a delivery, I turned my car off and walked into the pizza shop for maybe 5 minutes tops. Came back out turned my car on and drove off. Still listening to music then i realized that the sub was not on. The amp was on so I just figured maybe a connection problem. Checked the terminals they were fine, I pushed the sub in to see if the coil was scratching and nothing. I then took it out the next day and no connection problems on the inside. I did a pop test and nothing. No signal at all. I checked the tinsels and they seem fine. I could only see them on the out…

Has anyone heard both the xcon 18 as well as the fi btl 18? I am really wanting to try out another sub besides the BTL. I am considering ssa and dc at the moment. Any input would be appreciated.

...the side of the vehicle looks like a water fall as it flexes ....you swear to god there is enough body flex to cause metal fatigue and you think your dash is going to fall off ....the rear veiw mirror busts off and shatteres when it bounced on the emergency brake lever ....the electric automatic latches on the rear windows brake trying to hold the windows shut and have to be replaced with manual ones .....the over head center console falls off and hits you in the head ...the Mayor of Salmon Arm BC politley asked you to turn it the fawwwk down when you drive by his house ...the local audio shop is getting complaints about the " white van" ...LMAO ....your system can be …

What are the sealed and ported enclosure specs on the xcon 18's?

Can they perform in 1.75CF3 after displacement? What is the displacement? Can a box that is .75" MDF hold 7000W? Would it be wise to put a .75" piece between 4 of these? How much port area is needed? I can do 10, 11, 12" aeroports, or two (if theres a .75 bracing between 4) 8", etc. How much port area is needed for 1.75cf3 after displacements? I was going to use 4 sealed Eclipse SW8200's with a 3000.1, E Tech says NO ported, but I could put 1 huge aeroport through the back seat @ 47hz for SPL and insert a piece of cylindrical styrofoam for 30hz again, subs up, port into the cabin hitting the front seat divider. It would be badass if I did that but not if I could get Xcon…

I had my sub and box out of my car because I was moving and didn't want to damage it. It was just sitting on a table in my house, and I went to put it back in my car, and the cone is dented. I have no idea whether someone in my house pushed on it or how it happened. Regardless, will this have a impact on how the sub works? I can take a picture later and post it, its about a 3 inch diameter dent on a 10" icon. Also, is there anyway to pop it back out?

Searched but didn't really find much. So yea title says it all, whats the mounting depth on the X-con 18's/ Would also like to know how deep the basket is before it tapers off to the motor. Thanks in advance!!

i got it workin thank god! i couldnt get it by myself so i let a local shop do it. he says its runnin at 1ohm. but it was goin into protection the way you showed me. so he hooked it up to both channels still with 1000rms a piece. and my god is it loud! pics will be up soon... i hope its acceptable to wire it this way. thanks for the help pics will be up soon.

So i just got my car back from Freeman's friday around 1 am. The guy worked on it far past closing hrs and did a wonderful job. To see the box specs and the ideas about the build go to this link: I've been listening to a variety of songs and different kinds of music and it all sounds great. Louder than my Ported 15" FI Q for sure and looks sick! The only difference between what i planned on doing and what ended up happening is that instead of the box being around 5.75 after displacements and bracing its only a little over 4 which i know isnt ideal but its the biggest possible to fit it in my trunk. It still sounds great so im not too disappointed about that. It isn't qui…

i need to speak with an associate with SSA. i installed my XCONs yesterday and there is a problem with the ohms being too low. i bought 2 dual 1 ohms and its reading .02 on the multi meter. as soon as i put music to them the amp went into protection mode. does anyone have a number to call so i can resolve this quickly. i dont have much patience to wait for emails back and forth. i just wont to send them back so they can correct my problem. thank you

got my SSA icon 12 in the mail today, it suposidly only has 3 hours of play on it so if so it's a plus for me!!! but here are some pics

As most of you probably know, I have a pair of DCON 12s being powered off a RF T500-1bd. They were in a sealed box for a while (1.25 cubes each) and I was very unsatisfied and disappointed by them sealed. I didn't like them at all sealed and was on the verge of selling them or giving them to my girlfriend. I finally got a ported box for them made by a local shop (2.25 cubes each tuned to 33hz) and now they are my favorite subs that I have every owned! They are definitely loud ported and drop very low and have awesome sound quality and I just plain love them! I don't know why anyone in their right mind would choose to have them sealed over ported lol. Their sound qua…

Anybody know what the mounting depth is on a 12" XCON? Can't seem to find it anywhere.

I'm trying to see if I can fit a 12" XCON in my trunk. Are these small, medium, or large enclosure subs? I know the Icon's are meant for relatively small enclosures. Power would be 1200rms if that helps any. Would like ported if it can fit. Have 2-3 cubes to work with.

I'd like to pick up a 15" icon. The box would be sealed, but to shallow to mount the sub. I have the room to do inverted. Is that an option? Will it have a negative affect on the subs performance?

yesterday i took my box with my icon in it out of my car because i had a leak in the trunk and it ruined part of the box. and when i took out the icon out of the box i noticed that the bottom magnet had cracked all the way around it. is this something to be worried about? sub was in a box 1.35 cubes at 32hz pushed by a saz 1000d set at 1000 watts. and the sub is no more than 3 months old.

Hey, here very soon I will be buying an xcon, the problem is i drive a 1995 honda prelude and the trunk is not very big at all and to put a 15" in the trunk i would most likely need to build the box inside the trunk, and I've been through that before, it sucked. my question is how much of a difference would there be between the 12 and 15? it would be hooked up to an saz 1500. thanks Jordan

I've got an xcon 15d2 run by a sundown saz1500d they have been hooked up for about a month and both are great. I was driving a few days ago and everything was fine i parked my truck and went to move it a few hours later and it wasn't playing rite. It plays quiet and when you put your ear to it, it makes a buzzing noise. i pulled the sub out and it does not smell burnt and both coils read about 1.8-9 ohms on the DMM. Sorry for the long post but i have no idea what is wrong. Any help would be great.

Hmm seems to me that SSA is kind of getting shady with no responces within this whole week. I have emailed Mark and went through the website and emailed. Still no responce. All I want to know is whats the status of my reconed sub.

Does anyone know the magnet width?
