New amp gets hot, goes into protect
Thanks man. A wreck on the highway this morning added an extra 30 minutes to my drive. An hour and a half without going into protect. Still nice and hot, but I'm pretty sure pushing that 600 watts out of the bridged channel has a lot to do with it. It's never going to see more than 100-150 per channel once it gets devoted to the front stage. I did add about an inch of lift off the floor yesterday. That should help some. Like I said, it made it an hour and a half this morning so hopefully I have a pretty decent balance on it for now. I was actually thinking about that yesterday. Is it safe to use a pc fan it? I can get all those I want from the IT dept at work from old computers.I'm actually thinking at this point maybe I should quit waiting for the Ethos to install a sub amp and go ahead with a temp install to the DCONs while I'm waiting. I'm pretty set on a Soundqubed 2200 for the amp. I know I could run the DCONs at 4 ohms and get 500 to them. OR....since it has an input sensitivity range up to 8 volts would it be safe to wire down to 1 ohm and run with the gains low? I have 4 volt preouts. Is there enough difference between 4 and 8 volts to keep the power down to 7-800 watts? Sure anything to move air across the amp.

Add a aftermarket cooling fan to blow air across it. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_39030_Xscorpion-TF5.html

Good 2 way speakers i could pick up at a store?
If you put those speakers your buying in the front doors. I would just do away with the rear speakers. You have the subs for bass.

- HDS 210
I think you will be happy for the money as long as you get it in a good designed sub box. But for a economy sub I don't think you can beat the ssa dcon for overall performance.- HDS 210
Now that this sub has some play time on it. It sounds great for the money. It can really slam.- Welcome to the IHoP v.2

thank you ! I love all the SSA subs I've tried : Icon, Xcon, but the Zcon is by far the one I prefer. of course ! :-) :-) I have used all of ssa's subs except the evil. And I agree with you on the quality and performance of their subs.- My first SUV gets a sound system.
Very nice install and I love those zcon subs.- rear battery grounding?
Do you have the big three done?- rear battery grounding?
How do you have the positive from front to rear and yes I would ground the rear battery with as short of wire as possible. I don't like to go more then 2 feet. Also could be the amp? Any pics you could upload?- Amp and box measures for 2 HDS2 12
I hooked this hds210 to my amp and then adjusted the gain and ssf correctly. I then played it as loud as I could with no distortion. That's how I break subs in. Never had to baby it. Never burned one up yet and I have done a lot. Not all songs are recorded the same, so you will have to use the volume knob on some tunes.- Amp and box measures for 2 HDS2 12
What do you have to play them? Or did you mean after you have all you stuff?- Where do I sound proof these doors
Thanks for the website. No problem man....good info there Well this project will be put off due to cash flow for now.- "That amp you have is junk. You need something better"
