  1. Video is sweet. I'm guessing they lined the blocks up on the roof, so it spelled out sundown audio. Started recording, play stereo, blocks fall off. Then reverse the video so they look like their going up the windshield and forming sundown.

    Maybe because it's not a DC Audio product?
  3. I have no problem voicing my opinion whether it is liked or not. I own a SSA product. Unless I see some product design testing (by SSA) and specs it will be the last. MY OPINION -1 if you like. Not going to -1 you, this isn't high school lol. I'm sure the T/S specs will be available once the product is 100% done and listed on the website for sale.
  4. It appears the SSA does not design products therefore specs are unknown. Completely different level of product. ZCONs are comimg very soon guys.... finally. And the introductory price will be killer! No thanks. Don't really have anything positive to say do you?
  5. I love the piano finish on everything Looks super super loud
  6. For sure. The output difference vs the two sa12's is insane, off of the same power too. The trunk is sealed for the 15's and wasn't with the 12's. He broke his rear view off of the windshield and got pulled over the day we installed them. damn. Between the cone area and sealing trunk, musta been a huge jump in loudness

    Im on my phone so can't view, but is this the car I pmd you about? Damn that looks sweet. Lucky sob got a demo
  8. Dontcha have an xcon you can blow? Haha
  9. Sweet. Cone area ftw
  10. There's tons of sweet rides everywhere, just gotta look around. The escalade with kicker stuff was from tucson!
  11. The escalade with kicker stuff was sick. Pretty sweet build... But wills was louder. Both awesome trucks. Also heard a hybrid audio demo car, all sq, sounded amazing.
  12. Show was pretty fun, fair amount of cars. Got a demo of a escalade with 2 18" L7s and two warhorses. Also heard big wills ride
  13. I played a 38hz tone so I'm not sure where they got that number from.
  14. Thanks. And the amp is set fairly low right now
  15. I was busy doing my run, didn't have time to record myself. But I do have a scoresheet rofl
  16. TL results are in... Mic at headrest, passenger window down. 146.7db at 38hz Hopefully new alt will improve score
  17. Did Sean (Shizzzon) make the video?

    No there is no way and why would you wanna do that ????? you only will damage your batteries and also you wont get more power outta the amplifier 14 volts is the best voltage for the amplifier our amplifier they make power in low voltage you dont need do that here is a article about batteries, that goes to almost every brand Proper Way to charger your battery Yep yep yep. I personally wouldn't mess raising the voltage using a diode to the stock alt, I'd use a aftermarket HO alt with either an internal regulator or vcm. But either way, some stock vehicles charge past what Jefferson just said. And even my older car does sometimes... So is the website correct with the 9v-15v operating voltage, or is Jefferson correct, and the website wrong? Not trying to call anyone out, but it has to be one way or another, and the website makes more sense... I don't think he contradicted himself... He stated 14v was best.. But the amplifier has a range in which it can operate... Just like if he stated 2ohms was the best to run the amplifier at but it is rated at output for 1-4ohms.... Just saying... I reread and this is what I see: OP wants to run amp at 14.8v+ and Jefferson said you cannot do that. OP later states that the amp cuts off at 14.7v so that means the amp can't be on any higher voltage and Jefferson was correct So the website just shows the wrong max operating voltage then...
  19. IB Sorry I just had to. I'd have a box builder make up a design But it just comes down port area (circular vent instead of square. just (radius^2)*3.14 ), and port length for tuning.

    Traditionally for a 12v system it would be exactly 14.4v charging but often times that's not the case.... A 14v system would charge in 16v range, etc. I believe the 7k2e amp is designed to be ran on a traditional 12v system, and their max operating voltage is somewhere around 14.4 or so (I don't remember off hand) but even some stock 12v systems charge slightly higher then 14.4, and then most high output alternators have a slightly higher voltage... so the OP is asking if it would be okay to run it on the slightly higher voltage (14.8v in his case). Figures... I just went on the stetsom website and for the 7k2e - 1ohm amp, they show Supply voltage: 9 to 15V which sounds right... but Jefferson just contradicted that.

    I'm just going to say: most high output alternators have a slightly higher voltage, like 15v So according to you, I couldn't use your amplifiers because my alternator charges at too high of a voltage... And no I wouldn't upgrade to 16v... Don't need stepdowns for a daily vehicle. But I guess 7kw of power may not be daily either... Hell even my stock alts voltage varies. In the morning it'll be in the 14.9range, during the day it'll drop to high 13s...
