OK, I don't need to worry ! Thanks Stefan. For my next build, when I get a new car, I'll try to get OFC wire for power and grounds. It's a little bit more expensive, but it will not cost me an arm ! I know how to save to buy what I want or need

I'm running Stinger 1/0 CCA wire for power (from front to back of the car), for 5 years. I did not know the difference when I bought it. Will I notice anything if I change it and use OFC 1/0 wire for power ? Will taht be audible ? Worth the work ?

In my country you cannot use or even carry any gun, any firearms !!! People still have guns for hunting or competitions, but the biggest danger is burglars : they steal your guns in your house, to buy drug or commit armed robbery ! The fact that you can have guns and shoot is quite unbelievable. Be careful, guys.

Insane build ! Seems so loud, wow

Nick, do something for me please. You have a few of my emails ...

Wow ! That's BIG !!

nice move for the 2nd xcon ! I want a CRV !!!!! But they're expensive where I live. Keep posting pics...

waze Aaron, you gave me some idea for my iphone !

I would have got the BLs instead. If the change in output is not good enough for you, you could build another box. I changed my sub for a more powerful one, in the same setup, and I notice a big change : I was really happy with the results. Both subs needed the same volume, though. I'm not an expert at all, so don't believe I'm right !!!!!!!!!

a good calc Adobe reader O Player or VLC Flashlight : you never know when they take the light off ! Bump Some games : NFL flick quarterback, angrybirds, basketball shooting stars,...

You've got serious skills. Nice work on this Celica. The steering wheel looks marvellous You did not tell us how does it sound ? How do you like the neo 10 in this enclosure ? And where are the horns/tweeters ? I'd like to see them installed !

Very nice girl. She looks like she loved it ! You win !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't remember your setup, but it looks like those Xcons are small : are they 10"s ?

Don't upgrade amps. Upgrade the box first !

Looks good...and loud

Keep your current deck. Forget that TA settings for now. Work on the doors : make solid baffles for the speakers, improve the sound deadening. And tell us the results. Rear speakers are useless. But it's hard to believe the first time. When you go to a concert or when you listen to a real hole stereo, the speakers are always in front of you. Don't forget that. Good luck !

Crescendo is cheap. Audiopipe is cheaper ! Spend on speakers. You must have room for one 18" : will give you more bass for the money. Your Memphis amp is good enough. Keep it. And get an Ssa xcon.

So easy by ears ! Hope I will never regret to do it like that, but I've never burnt any equipment so far ! And I'm not a specialist in tuning amps

Maybe PPI has changed, I don't know. But I'd rather use a PPI than an Audiopipe. Get the cheapest !!!

You're waiting so long for those speakers !! They must sound really good !

It's enough power for the Xcon. Just set the gain safely. It's better to have more power than less ! If you feel the sub doesn't like this power (doubtfull), you can turn the gain down a bit. There are tutorials on how to set amp gain. Personnally I turn the gain down, and turn the volume on my head unit at about 70%. Then I turn the gain up until the sub plays bad ! I turn it down until it sounds good without distortion. And that's it. No bass boost, no eq (flat eq). Finally you plugg in the gain remote (to the max) if you have one with this amp. Good luck

How do you like the final results : sound, look ? Nice equipments, but I don't know this sub. I like the fact that you have room left in the trunk Well played !

double topic sorry I don't know how to delete it.

I know what you mean, BigJon. For security resons. The same for acid batteries. But I've always receive some glue when ordering several recone kits from PAP, fixmyspeaker,...

Oh yes they can ! At least PSI and the others can, so why not Fi ? But I'm sure I can find glue in my country The reconing part is not a problem, as I know my good friend did some recones in his life ! I was only really wondering about the basket part. But it does not look like it's too hard to do.

Ok thank you very much I found some pics on Google to see what is/ what you call an "impact screwdriver" ! It seems do-able !!! for a first-timer I think I will try that. Only if Fi want to answer my e mails. I'm tired of their system. 3 weeks ago they told me they only need a few minutes to send me an invoice for a sub. Still waiting.
