Interesting poking around the SonicElectronics forum, there was a topic that has been going for 2 years now, asking what brands customers would like to see on the store. Seeing that Sundown, DC, ZED, Fi, Ascendant etc. all get mentioned at least twice, zero mention of SSA.

If my phone has a quad core in the future, someone needs to come up with an Android version of BOINC!

A second Icon will definitely move up the output. That's what I'll probably do, or I'll upgrade to an xcon or zcon. What is your vehicles resonant frequency? Do you know off hand? That will effect the sub woofer's sweet spot. Couldn't tell you. How would I find that? A pair of Icon's will have greater potential output then a single Xcon or Zcon, due to the cone surface advantage. As for the vehicles res. freq., that can be done through testing or digging around on the net to find out if someone else has already done it. On average, usually I have seen the smaller the vehicle, the higher the resonant frequency.

Outside of occasional glitching and freezes, my HTC Thunderbolt has been pretty bad ass for me. I use it constantly for so many different things.

Are you ready for the new sensation?

A flatter response from a speaker means essentially a more even level of output from the frequencies it is being allowed to play. A larger enclosure and lower tuning will aid in flattening the response and help a little on deepest of notes (more efficient design), but like mentioned above, power handling is effected. But then again, there is the advantage of cabin gain (transfer function) in a vehicle. I should ask why you feel the need to run that much power, are you planning to compete? Reason being, we have people with 10" Dcon's on less then 1/3rd the power you are running, that have their side and rear view mirrors rendered useless when the volume is up. So output on the Icon, in most respects as it is relative to each persons preference, should be quite good when ported with that much power. If you feel the need to run 2000+ watts, the Zcon is very impressive.

The Icon should be doing that with ease.

I can sleep tonight!!!!

We used to offer an aluminum coil option, but with the all new motor design, the copper coil is quite good with it. There would need to be a slight suspension adjustment due to the different moving mass. Are you just looking for more thermal? I ask as the thermal limits went way up on the new Icon due to inheriting the method of cooling from it's big brother Xcon.

The reason why it can't work: - the gap is different - the coils are different - rear ward clearance is different - motor force is different - moving mass is different etc. etc. Essentially, the Xcon coil would slam into the back of the Icon back plate.

Please give us a little review on those comps.

Wait, what? You stay behind, just like that?

If that is after port and driver displacement, 3.6 cubes per is good. The Xcon's have big time motor force and displacement.

Looks really nice. Can't wait to see the finished install.

Got to be hard to pick up a speaker that weighs as much as you.

Yes, what Julian said. They are down on man power and had been short on parts, but parts are back in and they are working feverishly to catch up.

Update, 2 more speakers will be shipping out to you shortly, sorry for any mix up.

We got your email, we are waiting to hear back from Crescendo. We will update you as soon as we do.

Mine just rolls around in my hatch.

Would need to do this for a couple of months straight for a clean sample set. Usually doing 5 super sets of 12-15 reps each.
