    I was wondering if i could get my icon reconed to an 18. I know you don't have them on your shop or site but i was wondering if you could do a custom one. If not how much would it be to get it reconed to a 15? It is a 10" d2.

    First off my slow ass car...i think im justified in not spending thousands to make it a tad faster. Went from..15" ssd copper coil at 2ohm on an alpine 1000wrms sealed To a larger box with 6" aeroport.. And yesterday came my sundown 1200D + SSA icon D2 running at 1ohm (curtousy of johnecon2001) :bigclap: Im still playing with the settings but man am i satisfied with this combo. Imo the sound quality between the SSD and the Icon are almost identical, but the output from the icon rocks my socks. It hits lows like nobodys business, which the SSD hit um, just not nearly as loud. And that sundown amp stays cool as an ice cube. My hats off to sundown and SSA for the…

    Well i have been looking for some great subs for a while now and i think i have found them. I listen to a lot of rock and metal (avendged sevenfold, as i lay dying, bullet for my valentine) which has double bass in it. And i was wondering if perhaps the size of the driver would make the double bass or just bass petal kick in general sound better or worse? Also since i am lookin for the tight crisp bass i believe it would be best to go with a sealed box? Any input is greatly apreciated.

    Hey what's going on? So I'm in a dilemma with myself on what to do. I've decided that I want to get the D-Cons for myself. The problem is that I don't know if I should go with 2-10s or 1-12. I plan to get the JL HD600/4 so I would have 300 watts to use on the subs. Just not sure if 300watts would be good for the two subs. I mainly listen to Hip-Hop, R&B, Dancehall Reggae so I'm not even 100% sure the D-cons are the right sub for me at all. I am trying to set-up a clean sounding SQ system, but would like the bump when wanted. Can anyone give me a little bit more insight of what to do? Thanks.

  10. Started by KoolDrew,

    Recently I've been thinking about trying to fit a 15" Icon in the trunk of my Sunfire as opposed to the 12" I've planned. I typically would just use a slotted port, but the amount of displacement taken up by the port would bring the box pretty much all the way down to 3cft as opposed to the 4 that's supposed to be optimal. So I've been reading a bit and the idea of using Aero ports kind of interested me. However, does the recommendation for port area remain the same (12-16 square inches per cubic foot)? If so, I would need 2 6" ports or 4 4" ports, and in both configurations the port length would have to be too long. Is my only bet for fitting a 15" is to settle with some…

    This is going to be for a 12" dCON and I want to put it in its recommended sealed enclosure which is 1.2 cu ft. Just want you guys to double check on my specs for the box build, making sure the volume is right and all. Also do I need to use some of that box fill? If so how much Thanks guys, -Mike

    As of now, the 10" and 12" versions of the brand new SSA Dcon are ready to ship! The 8" model will follow soon, and we will give an ETA when we know for sure it is ready. The Dcon, as we mentioned before, is our mid-power, sound quality biased driver. Very clean and accurate in sealed, and really thrives in smaller ported boxes. 300 watts is plenty in either box alignment. For the most part, a scaled back Icon. All stats and specs can be found >> on the SSA Dcon website. SSA Dcon 10D4 SSA Dcon 12D4 We will have updated pictures of the Dcon, just like the Icon when we have a chance to professionally shoot them.

    Icon 12" sealed or a Icon 10" ported? Should have added, I meant in ideal boxes. Also, I would like to tune the box to 15-20hz since my amp does not have an SSF. I've got a blown 12" icon that i'll either fix or swap for a 10" and port. The 12" port box is just to big.
