Boooooooo, we want them now!!!!!!

Oxidation is easily controlled. I'd be more concerned of increased resistance between the multiple conductors.

I'v had Xcons , Icons and Dcons .... the Icons are my favorite , I could damn near levitate my car on 10hz with four 10" and they sounded really good the four 15" Xcons I had hit hard but they didn't touch the Icons on the really low stuff

Im sure i could pull out a few

Here are my old bus-bars that I made to fit on top of dual post batteries.

Awesome, thank you for going SSA. Really do appreciate it.

Wouldn't mind having a set. Don't have a vehicle to put one in. I could build a pair of shelf cabinets ????

Plus being inside the vehicle will help control the environment needed to accelerate oxidation. If they were outside the vehicle oxidation would be more of a concern due to moisture & ect. There would be nothing gained or lost by using ring terminals & the correct sized short runs of wire -vs- a buss bar. The buss bar would help to join the batteries together as one unit and look nice, but unless you are dealing with a large amount of amperage you wouldn't notice any difference.

Icons are more for sound quality period... The xcon on a response graph has a lot more output on desired tuning but you will achieve a flatter response out of the icon. And being on 1200rms, it's the more logical choice.

I sure wish I hadn't decided to delete Aaron's quote to me explaining the difference between the two when I asked the same question trying to decide what to get for my Jimmy. Basically he said that the ICON can deliver lots of solid low end response, resulting in lots of smiles and that the XCON is similar but with a stronger more direct impact. He went on to describe them in terms of heavy artilery. The ICON being the shockwave you feel from the explosion and the XCON is the missile straight to the head. Damnit I sure wish I still had that quote, the way he said it was awesome.

My last few cars I was damn lucky to see 15k

Ive held in my hands every line that SSA has ever made and i have gotten to here multiple sizes of multiples versions and i have to say hands down the Icon is my favorite sub for clarity and crispness. The xcon is amazing because you can throw more power and still get amazing SQ out of it. But i dedicated a van to having 8 18" icons after have 4 zcon 18s and i can say im a little bias toward the icon. Other than that i can say either option is a great one. The xcon can have the most upgrades in the future but the icon can definitely take you where you want to get right now.

I can't wait to see this done! We both have a ton of work ahead of us this year. Take your time Big D it shows when you do!

Blah blah blah.....Back to work!
