The Box plans are designed by JBLCamry here on the forum and are what SSA recommends. Your SSF filter should be fine. Absolutely use it. Most subwoofers are able to play below tuning. Just be careful with the volume knob and do not use any bass boost. I would not go any higher than 35hz with the DCON and not any lower than 28hz. As far as my recommendation I like the 35hz tuning because I feel I get the bost of both low loud rap style bass and the tighter faster transient attack of rock and metal. Your amp should power a pair of DCONS just fine as RF is great quality. Hope this helps!

Looking good!

Great review on an unknown great brand in SSA! Install and box look excellent!

Take a look at the box plans for the DCONS. I mainly like to port my enclosures in the 30-35HZ range, sounds the best to me. I too listen to Metal, 35 hz tuning seems to capture that double bass impact I like. It also depends on your crossover setting as well. 2 DCONS ported would be very impressive.

Holy quietness today in the hop!

So why are there so many refurbished sundown amps floating around? How many are floating around? If you check db-r he rarely has any in stock!

But of course! I'm going to get started on it today I can't wait to see the progress. It's like counting the days til christmas when your a kid lol

Well hurry up and get started .... Glad to hear nothing got damaged! Post as many pics as you can on the progress .... I have a pair of Blues 6.5" mids/midbass, would you have the T/S specs for those? PM me if you do!

Welcome ....

I was actually just looking at them in the SSA store!! An American sub is hard to find lately. I was at a local audio shop recently learning about DD 1500 series subs. The shop owner stressed DD's recommended 40 hz tuning. I wasn't really crazy about the implications of that. My system goals are transient response, punch, AND low, low end. This is why I was thinking large sealed box. How do the Dcons do in say... 1.5 cubes sealed each after displacement? The price is right, and they look GREAT. After re-reading your topic I see your looking for a 15". DCON does not come in a 15". Read my review on my 10 DCON .... OldSkool_08 DCON Build Log and Review - SSA Car Audio Forum

Another choice if your worried about amplifier power is the DCON series from SSA. An amazing sounding subwoofer either ported or sealed. Check them out they won't break the bank and are very versatile.

Patience and more Patience! Nick has spoken and explained the delays.

The Sundown SAZ-1500D has an operational voltage of 10-18 volts, Strappable, 24db per octave crossover, variable subsonic filter. Highly underrated! You may want to take a look at the new Sundown SAE-1200Dv.2 if it fits your budget. Not taking anything away from the MB Quart but since Maxxsonics has whored out the brand I just choose to stay away.

Lexan is a type! Just more expensive than acryllic.

x2 on the budget! A lot of options in the SSA store as well as great box build plans!

Could you post a pic of said compressor?

I would look into the SAZ-1000D from Sundown! Great little underrated amplifier that will power your subwoofer just fine and be easier on the electrical. It's on sale in the SSA Store!

Good to see the great customer service and that you got the problem solved. Even though your without the truck for awhile.

Should be more than fine.

If you want more output look at going ported. A properly designed and built ported enlcosure will yield great reults. Look into the Sundown SAZ-1000D as it's on sale in the SSA store. The SSA ICONS are a great woofer. Check out Pound That Sound under the fabricator forum and check out what Trevor has achieved with the ICONS.

x3 on the new box!

I used the alternator mounting bolt for mine.

External dimensions? How did you come up with 13.092"?

Daily or SPL setup? SAZ-4500D should be back in stock sometime late April early May, that would be my choice if you have the electrical to supply it!
