Icons in a dual 15" + horn setup
And really nice and Behringer probably shouldn't be used in the same sentence either.

Icons in a dual 15" + horn setup
I think he's describing a different use for them though. They're not ment as midrange drivers and probably won't perform as well as something you can get from madisound or parts express. If you're thinking of using them in a three way setup though, by all means, they'll be great for the low end.

Whats better than a Fi BTL?
YT and BT's are the same internally. The only differences come with the posts.

I concur with Ryan on this one.

Time Alignment and Me.
I sincerely doubt each one of those drivers outputs sound at the EXACT same instance as the others. Hence the reason you align the drivers to themselves. Then add time alignment L/R.

Time Alignment and Me.
How would that help? If the speakers are located at the same locations in the vehicle (i.e. doors), and you measured to a point in the center of the vehicle.....the speakers would measure equidistant You would have to measure the differences at the listening position. Then again, I've never set time alignment with measurements.....I've always set it by ear. Because your head moves. You can't account for how you sit or if you're leaning to the left or the right. You also can't account for passengers being in the way of the waves. Better to just pick a common open spot in the space and aim for that. As close to your natural spot as possible of course. You can do timing by ear, or measuring, the only real way to get it right though is with mic and computer that can measure down to the .001 ms.

Time Alignment and Me.
Incorrect. Time alignment should be used so that all the drivers are producing sound that is coming to your ear at the same time. Regardless of how many drivers he has producing whatever frequency, placement can be corrected with alignment and phase filters.

You can still use time alignment. One millisecond is about 1.12 feet. Rather than measuring right to your ear, measure to a common spot in the middle of the vehicle. Or just around the driver side. Set up an object about as tall as you so you have something stationary to measure to. Also, here's a calculator I use to help with the conversion of inches and microseconds. http://www.sengpielaudio.com/calculator-soundpath.htm

4 channel amp @ 1k watts
Not to mention, less wiring to send out of the amp for sure.

4 channel amp @ 1k watts
Indeed. With the multiple wiring options of the dual voice coil woofers, one or two mono block amplifiers would be much more efficient and probably cheaper.

alpine cde-102 & full speed connection cable
Is your unit even able to control an iPod? You should flip through the user manual for clues..

LED's connected to Amp outputs?
johnecon2001 replied to Frostedflakejake's topic in Amplifiers / Head Units / Processors / ElectricalYou can get both iirc.

15" ICON and Sundown audio saz1000d problems
Try disconnecting the woofer from the amp, then see if the amp turns on.

Futurevision HID 02 explorer install gone bad.
Cool, go ahead and post it here. This is SSA.

Stetsom Not For Sale In SSA Store?
You should be safe to list them with a "see price in cart" deal. No advertising there. Once a customer adds the amp to the cart, it means they intend to buy it.

info about Re-cone Xcon 12 d2
After you get the recone.. you should set your gain correctly..
-
Grounding to body instead of frame.
Not really... the path of least resistance will be the best ground. If your frame ground measures over 0 ohms, and a run from the battery measures less than that... the optimal ground is the battery.

BTL N1 Video!
So it's still in the BTL line, not the Q line? The diversity between lines is getting a bit blurred..
-
Xtant 121m + SSA DCON = match?
The 121M is barely a 250w amp. If you don't clip the gain, your DCON will be fine on it.

BTL-N1 pics
no, really we don't know what they're talking about. That's why we REQUIRE people to better define their questions without using words that they don't fully understand the meaning of. Now, back to the topic at hand.

Messed up on order form and want different size subs
Did you email nick like he told you to??

5.1 Dolby Digital ?????
What content are you playing that is 5.1? Either way, if you want to use that amp, you'll have to use a compatible Alpine head unit in order to pass input to the amp.

Still waiting to see a response on what type and size box you built..
