Sorry I havent been around. I have 0 45's in my box atm. I am actually in the process of building a new box and getting new amps. I built that box based on what someone had told me to without running the numbers on the box...basically it came out to like 10 cf with 20 sq in of port per cube tuned to almost 50. Needless to say it was no where near optimal. The new box should be more in line with what the subs need. 14 cf with 14.5 sq in port per cube tuned to 38. and honestly Im not that hard to find on facebook as there are not many liljestrands.

LOL, my youngest son put down his guitar about a year ago. I told you guys how I turned him on to Floyd since we have been into cans... Well today I got home and he had his guitar out. He is learning Wish You Were Here. He is enamored with David Gilmore's playing style. Boy makes me proud!

you do not need that much on the front stage my last system had 2 sets of 6.5" components on the front stage and it went above and beyond what my ears could handle and stayed ahead of the four 15" Xcons very well LIsten to M5............... what you got planned is a shit show , the staging will suck as far as daily power use on the Xcon.... I would stay stay with in the rated RMS for reliability and warranty purposes

That person is an idiot, stop listening to him. So you like loud and peaky and something that is much less loud and flat response at the same time. Or perhaps you just don't understand either of the opposites. You can but it makes no sense and won't help you at all. Back to liking the FR thing....obviously you don't. He has A LOT to learn.Seriously, just run one amp. You never once referenced a meter in your posts so chasing less than audible sound differences is pointless. You have to double the power to hear a difference. Running a second amp won't do that for you as between reaching the thermal & mechanical limits of the driver and power compression will stop that cold in its tracks. The 2nd amp is a waste of money, don't buy it, don't use it and don't invest in the necessary electrical to add it as what you propose is literally akin to flushing money down the toilet. I would also be vary wary of any other advice said friend is giving you as obviously he is a complete noob and infatuated with all of the wrong aspects of audio. Headroom is important, but this is a sub that is going to play the very smallest of regions in the audio spectrum where your ear is super inefficient at hearing distortion or anomalies. Terrible place to spend extra money for no reason. Put that budget you were about to waste to good use and spend it ALL on your front stage. It will make a monstrous difference. You still think I should just run the 1 amp even though I already have the 2nd with the electrical to back it up?Just run one amp, the difference in output of running both wont make a major difference,but would risk you blowing the subs,you could always sell one amp and invest in better quality mids & tweeters... you shouldnt need 8 mids and 8 tweeters.

I'd like to add that my dealings with SSA have all been excellent. Customer service around the clock, Awesome products. Couldn't really ask for more, unless they became a charity and starting handing out drivers for free

WoW! One bad occasion and one hard time doesn't mean you should slam a person or company for the hard work they do. I've had nothing but smooth sailing with SSA...... To sit and rant and rave about disrespect is one thing, only if it's actually deserved. With the attitude I've just seen on here I wouldn't want the business anyway. You can please all the people some of the time, and please some people all of the time. Things happen in the REAL world that are just plain out of control. It's just the way things work...... Not knowing all of the circumstances, in my opinion, there's been some ass shown on the customer's side.... Good things come to those who wait! Like Denim said, you wouldn't want some incompetent person doing the work of a skilled and trained person, you wouldn't want some cheap parts being slapped on just to get you your sub a few days faster only to have it sent back again for a second time....... I'm not bashing you donauaj, it's just there's a way to make a complaint, and you went about it the wrong way. Don't make accusations that you yourself are not 100% sure they are true. There are a lot of variables that can and often do happen when you have something serviced that is made by hand of mankind and not by a machine. I give SSA a 9 out of 10 score, because there's always room for improvement. Keep up the great work guys!

See, this is my point EXACTLY. I don't want to strain your marriage. I didn't want to ask all those e-mail questions in the first place. I just wanted to know the status of my subwoofer. I love my bass. I had bass in my car when I started driving at 16. I've had 8 different subwoofer set-ups, this being my 9th. Going without bass in your car really sucks. That's the beauty of a system like UPS, where once you have a tracking number, then you can see the status of your package at any point of the line. Now, what if you had a system where people could see how their sub is coming along in the build or re-build process? I just think this is a good example for your business to be better, like a website update or something like that. If you didn't have to answer as many e-mails due to these questions, that would leave you more time. With all problems lie room for improvement. My 2 cents. The strain of the marriage is my choice because I choose to provide the fastest email response I can to our customers. Here it is 11:40pm on a Sunday night, and I have to be at my office at 7am tomorrow morning that is 90 minutes away, and I am up answering questions or concerns. 95% of the time, there is no need to check more then once on the status of the drivers as we receive tracking quite quickly and we can track it in shipping. Also, on the rare occasion that there is a recone, they usually are out pretty fast and we send out the tracking. As I stated above, the build house either has not had a chance to update tracking info, or our UPS account has not updated yet. There have been times when it is 2 days or more out of sync. If tracking is two days out of sync, then what good is it in the first place? If you're up at 11:40 on a sunday responding to e-mails and it's YOUR CHOICE to respond quickly, then why are you whining about it. That's saying that you're eating a sandwich and it was your choice to do so, yet you're complaining about it. The funny thing is, you haven't even read through the lines on my posting. You've gone off on a tangent when I wanted to be assured about where my driver is at. Wow, you sound like a 15 year old girl on her period dude. These guys work very hard to provide great customer service. He's clearly trying to appease you by emailing you on his day off at 11 oclock and you turn around and shit in his face like that? You're rude, impatient and inconsiderate. I have ordered from SSA myself and I can assure you that your order has been shipped if they say its been shipped. If you feel that they aren't working fast, coordinated and efficiently enough then maybe you should start your own company. You could even put it on the same street as your build house! Then, that way you can run the best, snag-free, perfect company AND still build quality products. But I'm sure you'd rather mock me and everyone else who has had awesome experiences with SSA. Peace, health and respect to you. Goodnight.
