As things are right now with the available products..... YES

I have to say these subs are sweet.... they will hang against the W7 and WGTI for sound quality.... it's true Audiophile sub....not a sub for SPLers

They are Impressive to say the least.... I'll have more input on them after break in

I'v never heard of Audio frog until recently.... a buddy of mine manages Andre's Car Audio and set me up with them not broken in yet but powered by the Mosconi Zero One they are VERY impressive so far

I have not built anything out of the norm worth posting in a while.... how many single 12" box builds does one post ?? this ones slightly different...a quad of GB 10D4's.... my first run in with Audiofrog and starting with 2.25cf3 tuned at 30hz with a 7% port velocity per chamber no cosmetics until the subs are broken in and I'm happy with the tuning

That's Andy Wehmeyer in those tutorials ... he was with Harmon ( JBL ) before teaming up with Garry Biggs ... the Audiofrog subs are unreal for sq

I have tried many soft domes and always gone back to titanium because I find a lack of depth and sharpness some of them were really good but there is just something "missing" between them and a good metallic dome I don't like all metallic tweets though...cheep metallic domes are tinny and color the sound upgrading to Beryllium tweeters in this current rebuild , they sound incredible

I always find soft dome tweeters to be " lacking" in crispness.... they sound flat to me i am running 1" pure titanium domes and they are pin point crisp and crystal clear

stay ported but tune them FLAT with less than 8% port velocity you would forget all about sealed

Not true... It's not the amount of power that improves control , it's the quality of power that counts and yes you can damage a 2,000 watt driver with a clipped 1200w ....

Looks like you pissed on someone's Led Zepplin sandwich...... LOL

I'v built a few thousand enclosures over the last ( almost 30 years ) and I have tested them with air pressure and a sledge hammer to make Shure my product is as close to indestructible as possible the enclosures that I used only glue and Brad nails can be hammered apart panel by panel with laminate layer damage on all seams but the enclosures that were screwed as well had to be hammered into a pile of scrap to come apart and they don't blow apart at the seams with 120psi of positive pressure inside you can call my testing overkill but it proves that screws increase the strength of an enclosure by a long shot This is why all my enclosures were sold with a LIFETIME warranty against coming apart at the seams under normal use conditions

AWSOME amps The 3000 put out almost 2x the rated power

Nice amps .... I had the 3000gti so far it had the BEST woofer control over ANY amp I have ever heard period....

nice

I'v had Xcons , Icons and Dcons .... the Icons are my favorite , I could damn near levitate my car on 10hz with four 10" and they sounded really good the four 15" Xcons I had hit hard but they didn't touch the Icons on the really low stuff

if you can not hear the difference between OFC and CCA ( speaker wire and RCA's) on good equiptment your tone deaf it makes a very noticeable difference in sound quality when using it with top end stuff.. with the head unit , amps and components on my front stage I would be downgrading SQ going to CCA over the OFC and as far as the power wire..... (for example) my Crown A3000gti could not get the current it needed with double runs of CCA where the pure OFC did just fine with a single run that damn thing clipped like a cheap piece of crap and would shut down when it didn't get proper current my new Mosconi ZERO ONE draws as much as the A3000.... I'd be stupid to use cheap assed CCA to power it... and you trying to explain anything about audio to me is like a monkey explaining to a squirrel how to open a walnut.... nice try

ya .... OK.... LOL CCA does not deliver the same amount of current from the batteries /alt to the amps as OFC of the same size, it does not deliver the same sound quality from the head unit to the amps or from the amps to the speakers.... not even close if your using mediocre equiptment in a ground pounder listening to fart music CCA would be fine but if your into SQ and want all the micro details with a dead back ground and no noise floor it's junk you can't use your bullshit opinions and fight the laws of physics.... OFC has way less restriction and carry's the frequency's more freely Copper and aluminum are the most commonly used wire materials and there is a significant difference in quality, power handling and signal transfer between these materials. The least costly between these 2 options is Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA) wire. CCA wire utilizes an aluminum core that is clad or dipped in copper. It is a suitable choice for lower powered systems or restricted budget applications, although the power transfer is not on the same level as the far superior Oxygen Free Copper (100% OFC) wiring. OFC wiring is refined to remove virtually all oxygen and other corrosive elements. Oxygen Free Copper wiring provides a superior electrical conductor to aluminum because it does not expand or contract with heat and can carry a higher current load. The improved efficiency of OFC wiring will also reduce the strain on your vehicle tremendously and allows your sound system to run at its maximum efficiency. While OFC wiring is more costly upfront, it provides much improved corrosion resistanceand greatly reduces your long term maintenance costs. CCA wiring often times will degrade to the point that it needs replacing much sooner than OFC wiring. OFC Advantages Increased Conductivity to Carry More Current to Your Amplifier Reduced the Strain on Your Vehicle’s Electrical System Increased Corrosion Resistance Decreased Maintenance Costs Improved Heat Absorption

CCA is garbage , I wouldn't use it if it was free OFC or Silver if the budget was there is the only thing I would use

JL Audio is junk ...............................

I mean this from the bottom of my hart...... I just gotta be me...... LOL

that's a first generation Icon..... NICE.....

I had a Crown GTI....... best sub amp I have ever owned or even listened to period but when they break down they are disposable.... JBL worked on mine for 2 months and bought it back because no available parts for the repair and I ended up with some Soundstream Reference amps with the little cash they gave me

the Mosconi Zero One for my subs.... I have a buddy who owns one it has BY FAR the best woofer control I have heard in a LOOOONNGGGG time.... http://mosconi-system.it/product/zero-1/
