  1. Now the substage and wiring. I ordered about 35ft power/grnd from Knucon. They were able to ship to me no problems. Also got Toolmaker to hook me up with some battery terminals for both the front and rear batteries. I'm a neat freak and like my installs to look half way good. So here we go........ Heres my 2K and PA mounted, I'm planning to move the 4 chan under the seat and mount the second 2K where that 4 channel is. Strap those bad boys together and hopefully it should pound like hell. Got my second 2K in the mail, I got these batt terminals on the way from TM, should see these next week. Going to run these to clean up my BIG 3 install Initially I had the chance to run 3/0 wire, that stuff is huge. Had a buddy out here in Japan running it in a BB. I went with the good stuff from KnuKon instead.
  2. Onto the audio history. Initially I was just planning something easy, 15" Zstat sub in a prefab, Hifonics 1700D, Infinity Ref door speakers paired up with the Planet Audio 1600.4. I decided to rip that out and go for the CDTs which are paired up with the PA for now (Onx4.125on the way through Amazon). I decided to sell the Hifonics and go with the Crescendo 2K and it performs very well. It kills that Zstat so I had to adjust the gains way down. I really don't like the performance of that sub, so I decided to go Xcons after having a pair of Icons in my old BMW. The initial plan was to go a single Xcon 15 on the 2K, but the plans grew to dual Xcons strapped on two BC2ks @ 2 ohms for 4000 watts. So here we go Pioneer 9400 in the dash CDTs mounted My new dimension voltmeter, good voltages since I did the big 3 and changed out the stock battery I had to slightly mod the battery tray for the XS Power D3400 to fit. The initial battery was small as all heck. Hence I had to use a small piece of wood to help out the bracket. A pain the rear getting these batteries here, Crutchfield hooked me up with free shipping. Shout out to XS and CF.
  3. I'm out in Japan and have been working on a second install in my Toyota Voxy. It's been one heck of a challenge since I'm sourcing everything from back USA. Most of the Japanese run the big box brands like RF, Kenwood, Sony, etc. , so I decided to go with something different that will be in the end outstanding. The second challenge, is the vehicle of choice a Toyota Voxy. It's a mid sized van with good space for an install, but I had to do some mods to make the upgrades work like a bigger battery, etc. Equipment: Pioneer 9400BH CDT front components with rear coax for fill 2 Xcon 15's 2 Crescendo BC2000Ds ( replaced a Hifonics 1700d) 1 MB Quart Onx4.125 (moving the planet audio out) Excessive Amperage custom HO (current alt is 70a) 2 XS power D3400s Knu Con wiring New Dimensions /Stinger Volt meters Custom Enclosure 8 cubes net 33hz So here goes. First the Stock Voxy I got bored with it being the same as the others around so I put a set of used wheels (great deal at $300.00 for the set) and ordered some good ole vinyl wrap from Ebay. Not bad for balling on a budget
  4. I have two Crescendo BC2Ks and they get down. For the price they are a good deal and very well built.
  5. Received those Zcons. Monster subs. Now waiting on the second Xcon. Aaron thanks for all the support and for answering all the emails. OP sorry for the derail.
  6. Add the second AQ2200 and strap them @2 ohms. From there add a second sub and put them in a custom enclosure. I'm a fan of subs up, port firing back but I'm not a builder so hopefully some others can chime in.
  7. I just received one xcon but am waiting on a second xcon. Also waiting on 2 Zcon 12s & 15s. I'm guessing they got really slammed with the sale. I don't mind the wait after seeing my Xcon, just wish they would ship the second so I can get one build done.
  8. Well it was at least 6 or more since I ordered 2 Zcon 12s, 2 Zcon 15s, and my own 2 Xcons. The Z's were for friends in the area. Good stuff to know SSA faired well during the sell though.
  9. Likewise. I would def go with the Xcon and the BC2K. You will save some coin doing so, and can put that toward a set of nice components.
  10. 4k on two Zcons should be plenty loud also. Already have your 0awg ready?
  11. Just got my second one today. I'm going to strap them together for 4k at 2 ohms. Should be plenty for dual Xcons 15s. This should be fun.

    Well, surprise, surprise. I received one of my Xcons today. Thanks SSA. Waiting on the second Xcon and four Zcons 2 12's , 2 15's and I'm in business.
  13. You maybe seeing your sub soon OP, I ordered around week before you and received one of my Xcons today. GL bro.

    Welcome to SSA! Start a thread and post some pics of that enclosure, it's very nice. I will definitely be posting up soon.

    All the youtube videos are driving me insane. I've been patiently waiting since November 15. Come on SSA hook those 15" Xcons up for me...... Gonna put them in a Toyota Van, strapped to two BC2000Ds. Got the enclosure built 8cu net, 33hz. Kerf port painted red with custom lettering. If they sound anything like the Icons I had in my 745i this should be alot of fun. I don't mind the wait, but yes it can be easy to become impatient. In the end I'd say it's worth it.
