Don't know the context of your problem, but I believe Sean DeYoung & MacNCheese are both in the Grand rapids area. Or were at one point. I'm in Kalamazoo. 45 minutes from GR. Mac is in GR.

Recommending that much power over rated is never a good idea, especially using the words "safely recommend". Just because you did it doesn't mean everyone can.

Well said.

Simple math. A=((b1 + b2) x h) / 2 Where, a=area b1=base one b2=base two h=height

He clearly states two d4 subwoofers. Amplifier will be fine. Make sure to set your amplifier correctly. No need to run more than rated power. If you want to run more step up to the SA series.

Good job on building the enclosure. Install the amplifier you have, it will work just fine with those SA's. If you absolutely feel like you need/want a new amp, what is your budget?

Thanks guys

Plans have changed a little. Since this car is an extra vehicle I decided to go a little farther with the stereo. I have purchased another 10" XCON and will be building a box for them and sealing it off from the trunk. The Zed Miniliths are for "daily listening" and I am going to purchase another amp that is rated for 4k-5k to drop in for competitions. Any recommendations on amplifiers in this power range @ 1 ohm would be great!

It is the blue from the original Icon.

Seriously, Duran has exceeded my expectations. These dust caps are amazing in person!

Welcome. What is your budget? I don't know what is an absurd amount of money to you.

If you have the room, go with the four SA-15s.

Get to work! Cuts look great. Quick question: how far is that port going to be from the wall/drivers side?

So much fail. OP it seems like you have a lot to catch up on in car audio. No offense.

Why suggest he spends more money when all he has to do is glue the dustcap back on Because SSA > Skar in every aspect.

Small update: New dish caps for my two 10" XCONS. Yes, they are real carbon fiber. I would like to thank Duran for making an awesome product!

Happy Birthday Mark!

I'll be there. I will try to have the car done by then.

Have a good one Brad! I have learned quite a bit from you here on SSA.

Awesome news! Another quality company that SSA sells.

Exactly people see that my status says "newbie" well im not i just dont use this forum much. But its cool i got a MB Quart 2k. Ive never blown a woofer. Ill be fine on that amp. Im not stupid. So yeah i think ill be just fine with my 2k and active set up. Oh what a "newb" is going active? Oh how did he know what that was? Ha ha anyway. Thanks SPL MAN. At least you understood what the question was. Didnt need to hear from people who dont own Lethal Injections but thanks for chiming in. Seriously? Why even ask the question then? If you have a fair amount of experience in car audio you knew the answer. Also, running an active setup is easy. Running it correctly is another thing.

I like it! I am glad you think it is an improvement. What type of wood is it made out of?

The SSA Dcon is built upon ordering. I believe the 187 series is now gone. IA is switching to the I series subwoofers as their lower line.

Also, have you had a chance to listen and compare to the old box yet?
