well I got my 2 15" icons running off a zx2500. How well can they take it on clean power? I can beat mine for about a good 10 min then they start to give a little smell out. I have the bass boost off and gains only set 1/4 of the way. On one song today I even heard it pop. Looked like from over excursion or something ( if thats what makes them pop). I am getting a buddy of mine that owns a shop to see what he thinks and if the smell is the voice coils.

3 12" icons in a sealed 4.5 cube sealed box 3000 watts anyone have feedback. an idea ive been thinkin it may be my new setup

has anyone heard the ssa xcon in a sealed enclosure?i would love to do 2 15"s xcon in my dodge charger but i think i can only do 15s if i do a sealed enclosur..

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 !

So heres the deal. Ive been waiting on the IA LI 10s to be released and take advantage of the free enclosure deal. SInce there is no real date to be released yet, im pondering the idea of doing 2x 10" Icons and powering with a SAZ-1500d. Quentin drafted me up a box to suit my space and came up with 2.5ft^3@32hz. My question is, will 750wrms a piece be enough for these to really shine? I currently have a 12" Q in 2ft^3@32 off the same amp. Im looking at changing my setup and going for more output. Does this sound like a reasonable option? I dont want to drop the dough and not be 100% satisfied. Thanks!

I don't know if its my settings on my headunit or if it's my songs format (data and mp3) but i'm starting to notice most of my songs sound like crap. I set my gains with my volt meter and the low pass is set around 80hz and no bass boost. My enclosure is 2.2 cubes tuned to 32hz and i'm thinking maybe its too big? One song I noticed it bottomed out and I set my gains to volume 52 with a -4db 40 or 50hz test tone I believe, I was only playing the song around 34-38. I can turn down my eq on my headunit but then my frontstage midbass is not even being used. Do I need an external equalizer? and smaller box since it bottomed out? I mean the song Young Jezzy "You know what …

Just wondering what you other guys with x-cons are metering. Im getting a 148 at the headrest and a flat 150 on the windshield. Im really wanting more now but im not sure what to do. any suggestions?

So I am piecing together parts for my new sound system in my new VW CC. I decided to go with the SSA DCON 12". Before I purchase, I'm not sure weather to get the 12D4 or the 12S4. I know the difference and the advantages (I think). The amp I am using is a 5 channel Kenwood amp. According to the specs in the owners manual it puts out 350w RMS equally in 4ohm and 2 ohm in the sub channel. I understand that if the amp was to put out more power with a 2ohm load then I should def get the 12D4 so I could wire it in parallel and get a 2ohm load and draw more power from the amp. This amp as mentioned earlier however puts out the same amount of power. This means that I don't nee…

just a feeler as to what everone is running their 15's as far as box and power.im going run one with 1000w at 2ohm.i see the rec. box range between 3.5 and 4 for optimum 27 -33hz. i have the space ,would i get noticeable differance . how does 4cbs at 30hz sound any feedback is good.

I have a 2.7 cu.ft sealed box and I looking to buy a Alpine m500 mono amp(500w rms). Good choice for a 15" DCON, or too much power and little or too much box volume? No ported cause I don't have enough space.

Lookin for a low powered, low budget setup for HT usage. So, i came and looked at the Dcons, they look like what i want. I was thinkin about gettin a couple of these Dcon 12s and runnin a small powered amp to them tuned around 17hz. 9cuft NET was the ideal range i was thinking. You got any recommendations on if I should go larger if i can or what? What would you think about port area? Even though I will be using less than 500w for a pair, the xtreme low tuning may still require large port area? Yes\no? I can use up to 100sqin if necessary but that sounds too large, in my opinion.

Thought we would take it to the next level and have product introductions for each subwoofer. Still awaiting the GCON video. Thanks to Bryan from Modified for the great editing. Enjoy. DCON ICON XCON ZCON Added them to the store for their respective category also.

Clay from TeamSSA just brought his friend down, and we did a direct swap out from some JLW3's in his sealed box. He plans on upgrading to a SAZ-2500 when they come into stock.

i got a type r 10 right now and i was thinking about getting a dcon 12 next. would the dcon be louder than my type r?

So I just had my xcon delivered. I know coils aren't always perfectly spot on and impedence changes , but both of my coils are reading 1.5 ohms. It's a dual 1. Is this normal?

Are the 2010 Icons w/ upgrades available?

What do the Icon 18'' like for box size and port will be runing a set on a Crescendo bc3500 ---- any help on info thanks

can you turn a 12 inch icon into a 18?

I tried using the SSA gallery, but had a few issues, so photobucket links. I'll be building a few boxes soon, at least one sealed and a couple test ported boxes for my 96 Volvo 850 GLT (trunk). This 12" xcon d2 will be replacing my current Infinity Kappa Perfect 12vq's, and powered off a Sundown SAZ-1500d. I have a 50ft spool of 1/0 welding wire in my room, a sax100.4 on the way from db-r, and will be ordering the mli65's from the ssa store along with a battery or two. Now I just need to find some decent tweeters, and get to the box building. Found this on my porch the other day: Awesome packing, very secure: Money shots: Various xcon pics on photobucket

well my sub is out for delivery.... i have my box built... so i am sitting here thinking if there is anything i need so when i get off work i can mount it in the box and go hook it up...... then i started to think... i know how to wire it to a 1 ohm load.... but.. with my alpine type R it had jumper cables to go from one voice coil to the other... then just one speaker wire to the amp... so i only ran one wire out of the box just thinking that is how my Xcon would be... so.... i gues what i am wondering is this how you wire the Xcon ? or do you run speaker wires from each voice coil to the amp ? i guess i could wait and find out... but i would like to have it …

Hey people I am going to be getting 2 DCON 10's for under the back seat of my pickup, and I know that the optimum recommended ported box is 1.25 @ 33hz after displacement, so my question is, since this will be in a pick up under the back seat, with the subs forward firing and the ports are going to be on the sides of the box firing into the doors, what type of port should I use, aero ports or slot ports. Also if I should go with aeros, what size and what length, and if I should go with slot ports, what dimensions, also I say a guy on here that put his DCON 10 in a 1.3 cu. ft. box @ 33 hz, what advantages and disadvantages will I see by going with this size over the 1.25 r…

I'm finally getting to add the rides section back to the main site http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com , if you or someone you know own's a SSA product and would like to added to this section please either email [email protected] with your system info, pics and video, or submit them via this thread. Thanks for your participation!

Hey guys, would anyone have the data to use for plotting an XCON 15" in WInISD?? I can't find anything on here so it would be a great help..thanks.. Here is a screenshot of the data I need..:

what is the optimal tuning frequency for the icons? where do they perform best? i know the range is 27-33hz but where in that range would it be best to tune them at.
