  1. 30Hz will be the perfect medium, I have mine tuned to 26hz and Im loving them but I wouldnt recommend anybody tune that low unless you like it or listen to screwed music but I luv the lows thats why I went that route. Yeah the size of the sub wont matter, they all will play low just depends on the box. I would say go for it and have fun, plus all my friends are jealous of how low my subs get even my friend who has the two cvx 15"s; trust me they will get down and have a great time doing it.
  2. Crutchfield says this about the product (just want someone to agree if I should do it or dont because I dont want to mess up a headunit): SLI High-Output Design: This high output 2 ohm design extracts every watt from today's high powered receivers and amplifiers, increasing overall system output and efficiency (relative to 4 ohm speakers). Important Note: These Infinity speakers use a low impedance design to pull more power safely from your car stereo or amplifier. This design is compatible with all factory and aftermarket stereos.
  3. well put a video and pictures up, dont hide the system from us because we're family too
  4. yeah i have heard all three size cvx's, I have 3-12's and a friend who has 2-15's. overall im very impressed with these subs(first sub I ever bought, then upgraded to a rockford fosgate p3 12", then to 2-12" cvx's to 2-12" pioneer premiers and now im back at 3-12" cvx's so you see my passion for them), any size will be good for what you want to do. I personally say do it and as long as that box is 3 ft^3 after port and sub displacement then you should be cool. since he is your brother if you dont like it better than your system you have now then Im sure he will trade back, but once you get them in a ported box and a stronger amp you will enjoy the upgrade.
  5. All head units that I know say that each channel is rated at 4 ohms, almost every single infinity speaker that is made is rated at 2 ohms. Is it possible to put an infinity speaker such as Infinity Kappa 63.9i on each channel of a head unit? My friend wants to upgrade his car speakers and go with these so I wanted to know if its safe and what Infinity says is true? True Four Ohms— All Kappa speakers feature two ohm voice coils. Original factory-installed speaker wiring in many cars is 18-22 gauge. This wire, and heating in the voice coil when power is applied, increase the impedance “seen” by the amplifier or head unit. The impedance of Kappa Speakers has been adjusted to compensate for this increase and can be safely driven by any head unit. http://www.infinitysystems.com/car/products/product_detail.aspx?prod=KAPPA63.9I&cat=KAP&ser=KAP&Language=ENG&Country=US&Region=USA thanks for input.
  6. yeah thats what I would do so I want cause my car any problems in the long run.
  7. x2, I would of told her to stay in the car while I play the right song. great videos, keep up the good work
  8. do you have any other amps in the car, for your interior speakers. if so where are you going to mount them
  9. or just go to home depot and buy a black shelf board like i did (it will save you the time cutting and painting), works out just the same. I have my board holding my two amps for my mids & tweeters
  10. good job man, would you like to do my trunk (just playing), enjoying the build so far
  11. sorry about all the problems, it will come together before you know it. keep the build going and good luck
  12. how much and when do these puppies come out jacob, loving to put three in my box
  13. check the head unit settings, and all the connections (amp, battery, head unit and rca's). hopefully its a small trouble shooting problem.
  14. or just buy one or two more subs since you want to use both amps so bad, and have a bad ass system. my .02
  15. with it being powered by a Sundonw SAZ-2000d around what size box should I make it, around 4.2-4.8 ft^3 @ 30-31 Hz. thankx I designed a ported enclosure for 4.32 Ft^3 @ 30.91 Hz with 62.50 in^2 of Port Area (Range 52-69in^2) 14.47in^2/cube
  16. Well I dont know were your going to find some good $20 subs especially 18"s, I would say check ebay.
  17. keep it going, build just gets better and better with each picture
  18. well i just need the displacement of a xcon 15" so I can make my final enclosure design, is it 0.21Ft^3?
  19. You can look at Incriminator Audio 187 15"(300RMS)
  20. Id say go for the switch and if you get them before me I would have to take a trip to hear them.
  21. Hey SSA, I know you guys are busy with getting this forum together and Im loving what you done with the place, I was wondering when you guys were gonna update the XCONS page under subwoofers no rush but it will stop me and everyone else from asking you buys repetitive questions. Appreciate you work and effort, keep it up and bang on.
  22. good location to mount the meter
  23. oh ok becuase I know it would of been worth it if you did since they swayed you to want to switch already, but quite insane. well im used to 12 hour drives since thats how long it took me to drive to school in Tallahassee, FL just one way.
  24. i ground my radio's to the chassis from now on to eliminate any issues
