The CMPx2 was one of my old favorites and partial inspiration for the Xcon. Part of the beauty of the Xcon that it plays and performs beautifully in sealed enclosures. There is a stigma that many people have with power ratting and choice of enclosure design.

This pictures are priceless as they help people picture some of the process.

Never said they could not get brutally loud.

Did 1.75 miles last night, little swollen, but not too bad. Going to go again tonight, little farther. This morning was a real intense 20 minutes of workout bands with 1 set to failure.

It does not have the cooling to run full tilt that far over the rms for long periods of time. Scott and I were talking about this last night on the phone. People have to remember, the Xcon is a high end, higher power SQ biased sub woofer. If you really want to push it past it's stated limits, then maybe option for a different driver. Don't get me wrong, the Xcon can take some power, but it is not worth taking it to its thermal limits. Yes, music is dynamic, and under normal conditions it will not see the full brunt of that power, but we cannot say it is ok because people will think that they can go for it and we will have a slew of fried Xcon's come back because people will clip the crap out of their amp or play test tones or some reworked heavily distorted bass track trying to impress their friends and the coil reaches thermal. The Xcon coil can take some serious power, it just does not have the cooling to take the abuse like a BL or BTL etc. Was not meant to. Think modern overhung tribute to the old RE XXX and Crystal CMPx2. Hope that all makes sense. There is nothing wrong with some headroom, just don't want people to be under the impression that it is good to throw a real 2500 at the Xcon daily, and that to remember it is an SQ sub woofer first and foremost. We (SSA) like having an EXTREMELY low failure rate, all so far that I know of were user abuse above and beyond design intent of the sub woofer. The Xcon is for those discerning listeners that like to be able to crank it if they want or have more wattage then most. Those who worry about really peaky response, I always option them to the BTL. /rambling

I feel bad for the Hyundai.

Wow, massive difference on the door skin. Looks much much better.

We have a good size group from Texas. So much so, we have bigjon in charge of it.

Anyone keeping track of all the turn overs? This shit would not fly in the AFC north.

We need more drivers in Jersey.

If you're bored this weekend, I plan on getting them wrapped and start the last of the 'glassing

The Browns and Panthers have a better season ahead of them.

In.

Trying to get motivated to run as soon as I get home, but it is looking like rain really bad.

Might try to come, but not sure if I have it open or not yet.

Just the machine work alone on those has to be $$$.

We found out that there was an injury to the hand of the lead engineer, and he as not been at the factory for a few days. There are a handful of amps that need to ship out, I believe they are very close to being ready to go.

Did some more light weights, high reps last night.
