  1. I just upgraded to sundown 1500d v.2s. I have two mb quart dsc1500.1 that do 1500wrms @ 1ohm. Used for 2 months comes with original box, manuals, and bass knob. $150. Let me know. I had the two amps pushing two icons
  2. Whats the specs of this box? It does not look like a t-line enclosure at all to me. It looks like you just put together a box and called it a t-line. How does it sound? I personally do not know how to design a proper t-line enclosure so just want to hear some of your explanation on it.
  3. This. I definitely learned the hard way. The first time I ran three amps at one time off of just the headunit my 4 channel burnt up.
  4. Yeah can not wait to get these running. They are going to power 2 12" xcons
  5. Thank You Yes that is me. Since they are both v.2 I did not know and have not seen that thread
  6. I just recieved (1) 1500d v.1 and (1) 1500d v.2 last night. Looking at each of them they look exactly the same and I can not tell which is which. How can I tell? and can the two be strapped together? If not I still have another v.1 so no worries.
  7. Are those outer dimensions on the box? That box is way bigger than needed. What cubic feet are you going for?
  8. Yeah I love this color. It looks purple most of the time but it has a pearl coat/clear on it and when the sun is really shining it looks red. HaHa (4) 12s huh? I did just purchase (2) 12" Xcons and two Saz-1500ds. Subs will be here tomorrow. Box building starts this weekend.
  9. 1.23 ported and 1.23 sealed are not the same size box. You need to account for port area, which depending on you tuning will make you box a hell of alot bigger
  10. nooo, we have already done some measuring bro. It won't be easy by any means but saying it flat out won't isn't fair lol. I promise you wont fit them in there in the 12+ cube box they need with the 240+ sqin of port needed. Wont happen. we take that as a challenge Great challenge. If I follow SSAs recommended ported suggestions. I come up with a box that is around 18 cubic feet after port, sub displacement, and bracing. I used 32hz for tuning, 7.75 cu ft per sub. Thats a lot of box in that car. Please create a build log when you start this.
  11. sealed or ported box? If I remember right you have a new chevy malibu. (2) 18's will be hard to fit in that trunk. Before you buy the xcons make sure you can design a box that will work for you trunk. Other than that good luck and cannot wait to see pictures
  12. Yes much better I might have a used one for sale soon. I will let you know asap if you are not able to get that one.
  13. If you use aeroports you need to use more than one 4". The calculator is correct but you do not have enough port. I would use (2) 6" aeroports with a length of 15.45". Your 4 x 18.5 slot port is the best option out of this group with 72 square inches of port area, but I would go more. Overall the numbers are correct but for 7.5 cubic foot box I would try to get 100-120 square inches of port area if using a slot port. You can get away with less port area while using aeroports to achieve no port noise.
  14. More headroom for sure. I have a MB Quart DSC1500.1 (1500wrms @ 1ohm) on my 12" d2 Icon. I have seen these amps on ebay brand new for $209-$229.
  15. Love the pods on the dash Great work!
  16. Yeah running with the stock alternator, but it is 160amps. No voltage drop with the one dsc1500. We'll see how it handles two.
  17. I believe it is just a pair of tweeters in the dash and 6" woofers in the doors. Capacitors on the tweets nothing on the woofers
  18. Which Sundown amps are you thinking about? Your subs will def be able to handle than those RFs. Looking forward to this build pics of the truck?
  19. Yeah I have used them both ways. I personally like them this way better. They still work the same way and the sub seals just fine. Going to try hurricane nuts on the next box with the two icons.
  20. Great deal on some great subs
  21. I have owned the Dcon and D3 subs. Both sound great in sealed and ported boxes if built right. Dcon>D3. Take advantage of the great deals going on right now!
