How about hosting something similar to ampguts over here ? That is an interesting idea. I know we will have to kick our bandwidth up again. We just hit 90% already this month after juicing it up 2 months ago. As to how it will be set up, I am not sure, I would prefer something that is not code heavy, but something users could submit and mods could approve images and info.

What Kent said.

Thats good, when I was still at the shop, a while ago, we did some very stout installs with the XTR models and the G4's. I still love those amps, even if the wire connector's are small and can break on me.

Thanks Adrian.

Damplifier pro, just one layer in most parts so far, has made a huge difference in the Honda for me.

Yikes, that looks wild. Looking forward to the result.

For now, there will only be 10/12/15 for the Icon. This driver is a whole new line.

Mach5 - 1 DD - 0.

Welcome to SSA.

Nice score!

Side note, and nothing to do with the MAG, but the Icon does not need tons of power to sound good. There are a few Icon owners running less the 500 watts and love it.

Looks awesome, great box build. Just wait until it breaks in Wkb.

Good luck trying to get anything covered on the warranty.

Car looks great!!

Both look great.

On this day in 1990, President George H. W. Bush posthumously awarded Jesse Owens the Congressional Gold Medal. In 1910, Henri Fabre became the first person to fly a seaplane (the Fabre Hydravion) after taking off from a water runway near Martigues, France. And in 1802, Heinrich Wilhelm Matth

And the answer is???

If that is the XTR model, I think it is. It has been a while since I hooked one of those up. Helotaxi might know for sure.

Good luck to any SSA people that go!!

Very detailed review Sean. I just hope people will read it. Seems like the IXL line still has not been noticed by the car audio crowd yet.

///Sean, I have to make one adjustment, I would rather have new TATAS then used TATAS.

I have the Orion, and it has been solid as a rock for me and we have used it for stress/abuse testing SSA drivers. There are a good number of people that ran it at .5 ohms and have done well. What I am confused about is how a pair of Arsenals are going to get to .5 ohms since they are D4, unless you ordered special versions. The issue with the Orion's was that people did not have the electrical system to support such a powerful amplifier, or they did not have the experience or know how to use it, and then there would be voltage drops and kaboom. So holy crap it must be a crummy amp! Sorry no, user error. john mentioned some good ideas with upgrading the electrical system to support the amplifier. Big3/a few strong deep cycle batteries/ and maybe a bigger alternator. In my opinion, unless you are worried about scores on a TL mic, its not worth it. Run it at a higher ohm load and put less strain on the system and get more life out of the amp and subs.
