Yep, it was gremlins.

OK OK OK, whoever said just let them brake in was right, and who ever said just let them play loud for a couple of hours was right. I spent the last three hours playing 20hz test tones and sine sweeps and deep bass musik, after my sub sat the my truck in 98 degree heat all day, and the lows are back as a matter of fact I'm getting the same kind of sound as I was from the 10's only I got louder lows and the bass seems to kick harder than before.

What is your subsonic filter set to? I know it's fixed, but what is the frequency? Have no info on that Have you verified the enclosure volume and tuning frequency? No What was your prior subwoofer? 2 Diamon Audio D1 10's Do they "feel" stronger than your prior setup, just not as loud to the ear? Yes How low of frequencies are we talking about? Below around 30hz

It is running at 2ohms, it's an A/B class amp, but thank you for the advice.

Thats another thing I was concerned about, It's not really broken in yet, I've only been playing it for 3 days, but for 6-7hrs at pretty decent volume levels.

My subsonic is not adjustable.

My last system was the same except I was running 2 Diamond Audio D1 10's in a sealed box

I'm running 1 SSA DCON in a 2.3ft^3 ported box at 31hz, its down firing in a 02 GMC sierra on a Diamond Audio 400.1. It just doesn't seem to hit the low low notes like my last subs, I dont know if its because its ported and they were sealed or if its the Subsonic filter or what, just looking for suggestions. I can feel the lows and the port fires like a hurricane, I just can't hear them that well, it seems to be only below around 30hz, for everything else it slams, and seems to play everything accurately.

He tried to get the T/S specs off the net, but his computer at the shop sucks, so he told me not to worry, he would look them up at home and build the box Mon. Thank you all sooo much for your help, its been raining down here for like 4 days and I think I was just getting stir crazy, lol.

He's got a program for it, but he needs the sub to hook it up to and it's been two weeks since I ordered the sub and it still isn't in yet.

OK heres the deal, the box isn't made yet. That is the info I need to know, what size and what port deminsions, all I know is it; 1.NEEDS TO FIT UNDER THE BACK SEAT OF A 2002 GMC SIERRA EXT. CAB 2.I WANT IT TO BE TUNED TO 30-31 HZ 3.I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING AND AM USING A SHOP TO BUILD THE BOX 4.I'VE NEVER HAD A CUSTOM BUILD PORTED BOX MADE, I USUALLY USE SEALED BOXES 5.IT WILL BE HOLD 1 SSA DCON 12" DUAL 4OHM SUBWOOFER anything else that needs to be known???

The box is supposed to be 2.25ft^2 and the port is not built thats what Im trying to find out, how big do I need to make the port to get 30-31hz The tech page says 32.5in^2, but how long do I make it??? What more info do I need???

If the port area is 32.5in^2 how long do I need to make it to get 30-31hz??? This is for my 12" DCON.

I have to agree, the logo needs work, and when you get the DVC version going, I might be interested. I would have given the ""SQL"" serious consideration against the DCON if it was DVC. I wonder how they stack up against each other???

Too bad my ex-wife wasn't standing on that corner when it happened.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

He said 4ohm each, which wired together in parallel would yield a final 2ohm impedance on the amplifier. Yes the amp is running at 2ohms putting out around 400 watts.

I use the subwoofer control on my head unit to set the level I want to listen to. It also has a remote gain control, but it doesn't work properly. I have the remote gain set at around 1/4-1/3 of the way up and the sub control set at 0 for rap and -10/-14 for country and rock depending on the song....am I still doing something wrong?

Seems pretty clear what you need. http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/products/cld http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/products/ccf http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/products/mlv http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/products/accessories I beg you to use these products. The Front Stage Amp can be left up to you I'm seriously gonna look into that, thanks for the advice.

I only think I need it 'cause I can see my headlights dim at night when its turn way up, and this money is for my trucks budget, there's another budget for savings and stuff that we "need".

Yes they are dual 2ohms run at 4ohms each....supposedly. I've never taken them out of the box and looked though.

Yeah, that was another thing, after the last time it happend I pulled off the interstate at my grandma's and checked the amp and finally looked at the gains, they had them turned all the way up and had siliconed them so I couldn't adjust them. I took the silicon off and tuned the gain down 1/3 of the way, turned the bass bost all the way down, and the lowpass filter all the way up (I use the one in my stereo). Since then I'd swear its actually louder, but I havn't driven my truck for over an hour, while jamming, since then, and it hasn't cut out on me either.

X2 for the XCON!!

thats what I was thinking, that and the big 3
