  1. :woot:
  2. Tax returns are starting to kick in. People should jump on the pre-order I know!
  3. Yes, duping an alarming amount of unsuspeciting and inexperienced customers. The expansion of that "brand" is a sign of the sad state of the audio industry.
  4. Tax returns are starting to kick in.
  5. Meaning that company was bragging about how they rate their amplifiers differently. So that right there means there is some variance and it is nearly impossible to go just based on what each individual company chooses to rate their amplifiers.
  6. Not nowadays, price is the determining factory lately in this industry. Sad but true Cheap and full of hype, it sells.
  7. ok thanks so then what would kind of numbers would i be looking at for port area for my xcon 10? For the Xcon, I suggest 15.25 sq. inches of port per cube of internal volume. Per Cube? Yup, so for example a 1.25 cubes box, would have a hair over 19 square inches of port.
  8. Cool to see another SSA sub used in a home audio set up.
  9. There are far more respectable and reputable brands to give your money to. If you are seeing mixed reviews about the amps and haven't researched the questionable track record of the company yet, that should be enough to scare you off.

  11. Emails for 5 hours on a Sunday, not cool.
  12. The recommended specs are there as a range option. The pre-designed are there for ease for the end user. The Xcon and Icon will work well in each others suggested enclosure sizing. Really the one thing you will need to worry about is port area for the Xcon is going to need to be greater than the Icon. Sorry for any unintended confusion.
  13. Oh no, not at all, a little Japanese manufacturor with a very limited line up, should be getting its doors blown off by GM. But yet, so much of GM seems to be filled with recalls and outsourcing now and little ole' Mazda is making lots of forward progress in their limited models selection. As for new vehicles, I don't even consider them anymore. I have been a Mercedes person from day one, through the years in the family, there have been far more Mercedes than any other. But, to clarify that, they are all older "don't make 'em like the used to" Mercedes. I am a bit spooked by the amount of complexity of new Mercedes. My Mazda bias is due a lot to their simplicity and lack of shit to go wrong, making them reliable and easy to work on/modify. Was it Mazda that is coming out with the 550+ horsepower electric car? I seen a add a while back I might be thinking of something else.I believe it had 3 motors..Idk Not that I know of. They have not done much with alternative propulsion and are choosing to optimize gas/diesel though very high compression, making the cars more affordable, easier to own for all, and less heavy than electric cars.

  15. That seems awful early. Ha, typical GM crap bullshit. Expected failure is near 100% here by year 5 according to the local tire shop. I don't doubt it after seeing the mess on the inside. This is also on a truck that shows NO rust on its underside and is kept clean. Clean for here anyways. That is just unacceptable. That's the American way, make it cheap and disposable. I feel like I am reminded bi-weekly why I cannot spend my own money on a GM product. Don't just blame the 'mericans. ALL manufacturers do this shit now. I work with all of them. GM engineering is way more progressive and thorough than Mazda....The real problem are the marketing idiots. The specify price points that cause corner cutting. Fuckers. They better be 3 fucking light years ahead of Mazda after all the bullshit. For a moment I considered a used manual Regal and just correctly badging it to Opel.

  18. Rough evening. But getting caught up on SSA work.
  19. This is true stuff? Yep.. I guess I am glad I don't use internet explorer. True!! Firefiox asap. I installed this smilie for a reason. Did you just add that smiley or has it been on here? I haven't seen it before. Been there, as I haven't updated the smilie list in 4 years.
  20. We had a little bit of snow, but the 9 degrees and high winds sucked.
