  1. Why is this still in the Team SSA section??
  2. Spent the day re-shingling the grandparents roof. My back is killing me.
  3. I was kind of thinking the same thing. I've been looking into AP as you suggested as well. Are there any good external SSF's available? I looked around and didnt see anything, but if the price is right that is something I would be willing to invest in
  4. I originally planed to tune to 35hz because that is suitable for my music preference. I don't listen to much doctored music that would drop much below 30-33HZ. I'm not too worried about having to tune to 33 because I shouldn't hear much of a difference between tuning at 33 or 35. Am I correct in assuming I would have to tune to 33HZ if the JL's SSF is fixed at 30hz? I have read that the general rule is about 3hz below tuning, but it is dependent on the sub and enclosure specs and the amount of power. Do I have the right logic here?
  5. I'm still considering it, but have some reservations about AP from a few threads I've read on the net
  6. Any reason why to get the JL over the RE/US Amps? I like the price of the VLX but have only seen a few reviews around. Just curious because the lack of SFF has me trippin. I trust your opinion, but am just curious why it is better specifically. Like are the VLX's unreliable or is that just a really good deal on the JL? Thanks again to everyone for the input.
  7. Does anyone have any opinions on the US Amps/RE VLX series? Specifically the VLX 1DE? I found one for $200 here and was wondering what you all thought of it. Are they reliable amps that will do rated power and not overheat?
  8. Thanks for the information. I had considered dbr, but the shipping would be around 30 dollars which would bring that amp to 290 which is too far over budget
  9. I forgot to mention that I have decided to pass on the PDX. The owner told me that he sent it into protect a decent amount of times and that made me feel uncomfortable about buying it
  10. Thank you I had not thought of that. Do you or anyone on here know if that is a good buy for that particular amp? I'm concerned about the fixed SSF is this something that is cause for concern? If I tune more than 3hz above 30hz wouldn't I risk over excursion?
  11. X3 on the release date that would be a perfect amp for my system
  12. Thanks for the advice guys. I've actually found a jl XD600/1 amp on craigslist and the guy agreed to sell it for $150. It doesn't have a variable SSF though only a fixed one @ 30hz. I was going to be building a ported box so I was a little concerned with that. Here's the link to that amp JL XD600/1 let me know what you guys think. I also saw a link for a alpine PDX 600 for $200, but the guy hasn't responded yet. I've read a little about that PDX and it seems like it is a solid quality amp and I like that it is stable at 1-4 ohms. Any info or opinions are greatly appreciated here guys. Thanks
  13. Jacob, any idea when the SAE-500 will go up for sale?
  14. Hello im new the audio world and am looking into getting my first system. I am looking at getting a Sundown SA-15 woofer, but am lost on what amp i should get. Im looking to spend around 150 or so on an amp but not sure what would be a good combo with the SA-15. Would an Audio Pipe AP-10001D be a good decision or an AQ 750. Any ideas?
