Dam if you think the w7 is decent in the jl sealed enclosure its going to be crazy for you with 2 of them in a ported enclosure if its forsure built for them. . You really should listen to m5 about your front stage. . My last few setups iv only ran fronts PROPERLY INSTALLED and its way better than when I used rear 6x9s and shit . Its wayyyyy more about the install than how many speakers you have

This garage is going to be a man cave and SSA work shop. Big TV and rocking stereo, hell I may never go in the house again.

So cute I almost had a heart attack

Canon & Nikon started out in the gun business. What do you think they were designing optics for?

Jesus Christ, I had no idea... Boobie rock.

I don't know, my pm's are doubling up too. I have a 10" XCON with a pair of 10" matching PRs that I too absolutely love. They're not as efficient/loud as a good ported enclosure but the smaller size and low end response is well worth the compromise. The SSA build house built my PRs for me to match my XCON, I thought they were very reasonably priced to get something that looks identical to the sub. I'm sure they could do it again if you really wanted to go that route.

I definitely recommend it. There are some limitations to consider, the PR must me mounted vertical and you need the processing to configure the high pass just below tuning with a steep slope. I've heard a few PR systems but personally have only used TC Sounds PR's. I think PSI Audio PR's would work well too. You'd be good to go with a 15" PR and an Icon 12.

Should I leak some production photos of the SSA Evil6.5?

Check out the new review on the Mike Mono block amp. Thanks Justin Rock On!

No problem at all man, thanks to you for making a great product.

Sorry Aaron for the overdue review on the US Acoustics Mike amplifier as it's been sitting for a year and a half in my closet. Thanks to SSA and Aaron for this great product wonderful customer service as usual, I didn't have any problems with my order and the shipping was fast. Product was packaged as it should be double-boxed without any signs of damage. Now onto pictures of this little guy, it has more weight to it then you would expect. Pictures first then review will follow.

Thank you for the review. Nice work. Always nice to see another POV on an amplifier.

Nice review.

Cosmetics I love the look of this amplifier, the gun metal color scheme is very nice and appealing to the eye versus the standard black you see from other companies. I didn't have any problems with the stated wire sizes fitting into the power, ground, remote and speaker terminals. The dials aren't hard to turn at all , this product comes with the usual standard crossover network that most subwoofer mono amplifiers have. The bottom plate has vents for extra air flow, as you see in my build I placed to rubber feet under its mounting tabs to allow the amplifier to breath. At the end of the day you have a simple, sleek amplifier that will win you over everytime you open your trunk and take a glimpse of it. Performance I have no qualms on why this amplifier would not put out rated power, I haven't tested it myself or seen anyone test this amp but it is pushing my SSA Icon 15" very well. The only upgrades I have electrical wise are three ground wires under the hood, all in 1/0 car audio wire and 2/0 welding cable. One run of 4 gauge Knukonceptz OFC run of power from battery to rear of car with a 4 gauge Knukonceptz OFC wire to a sanded area for the ground. Amplifier hasn't gotten warm but I don't really take long trips, still trying to get everything dialed in and waiting till I get an AGM battery for under the hood. Hopefully I can find a local meet or car audio show to do some more testing and get it metered. Missed a show this past weekend but know some guys on a team down here, so I should be able to in the loop more. Overall Opinion In conclusion, there are no cons I can think of when it comes to owning this US Acoustics Mike amplifier. I need to stop playing around and order the Barbara Ann for my front stage setup. At the price and power ratio you cant find a better buy, this amp is well built without the bells and whistles. Thanks for the comeback US Acoustics, hope you guys stay around and introduce more products to the car audio world. Thanks to SSA for giving me the opportunity to own this amplifier and once again sorry for the long delay on the review. Don't really know what else to say fellas, about to go take a ride and enjoy some tunes. Not much for words and wish the review could be longer, any questions ask away.
