  1. Just as the title says, I have a 15" zcon for sale. It has dual 1 ohm coils and the carbon fiber dust cap upgrade. It hasn't seen much use and is still quite stiff. It is running at .5 ohm on a BC3500 with plenty of power to back it up. Only got hot and stinky once and I shut it down right away. It is an awesome sub, brutal for sure. I just prefer the sound of the XCON and I am changing my setup so this has to go. The box is available locally as well. I am trying to move this locally, but I am willing to ship if costs are covered. If I do end up shipping it, I will be seeing about getting one of the shipping boxes from SSA as I don't currently have the original shipping box. $400 + shipping for the ZCON.
  2. I saw these terminals used in a box somewhere so I figured I'd give them a try. They are supposed to fit up to 8 awg wire. Got all the mirrors in place. View looking into the port. The little guy standing on the brace in the last two pics is hard to see in the photos, but it looks like he is about 10' away when looking in the port. Speaker wire and led lights are ready to go. Filling holes and giving the final sand and round-over. Taped and ready for paint. Drying...
  3. Another possibility, if your vehicle is so equipped, is the electric radiator fan(s) that can pull 20-30 amps or more.
  4. O.o that's jacked

    Holy sexy money pit bat man! Nice ride and build plan. Digging the captain's chairs in the second row, wish my hoe had them.
  6. Happy happy joy joy!
  7. Elemental Designs came up in a quick search. Not sure as to the issue with DSS here on SSA though. I guess I missed it as well.
  8. Another Sonic Electronix shopper here. No problems thus far. No personal experience with onlinecarstereo though.
  9. I'd never cut glass til now. It was a little intimidating at first, but it's all in the score line. That first "cut" was invigorating when it went exactly like it was supposed to.
  10. Test fitting the baffle layers before I glue them together and paint. Not a bad gloss for a rattle can and no sanding between coats. Going to have to remember this can for the future.
  11. The reason shall be revealed soon enough.
  12. I am just using screws and wood glue. I just use the screws as my clamping force. Once the glue is dry, the screws come out so flush trim and round over is a non issue. Who said its not going to be seen?
  13. Yup, satin sapphire to be exact. And wouldn't you know...I ran out. It's coming right along though. The shade should be just right once the top goes on.
  14. Will have to give that a try next time around. This is my first time using body filler on wood, let alone soft mdf. I see what you mean about sanding. Knocking down the Bondo without shredding the mdf took some time. The 80 grit was killing it, I ended up using 220 grit with both a block and an orbital. It's slow, but the finish seems to be smooth enough for spray-on bed liner.
  15. Picked out some paint today. I'm hoping this all comes together well. I'm not sure why a glass cutter is here though.
  16. Thanks, it's looking good so far. I am happy to have the table saw at my disposal. I fired up the 10" miter saw yesterday as well. My grandfather left behind a small wood shop in a shed in the backyard when he passed. There is stuff in there I don't even know how to use yet. Rabbets and biscuits and dados, oh my!
  17. I think I inhaled more than enough dust today. Got all my cuts made, now it just needs put together. I used some scrap mdf to make the rod type brace instead of spending the money on 1.5" dowel rod. Came out well enough. My inner port wall seems to double as a small table. Baffles are cut and ready. I stopped here for the night to let the glue dry before further assembly.
  18. I would suspect a bad connection somewhere. Go over all connections and also check fuses and holders.
  19. You must have read my mind. I was thinking the same thing, or maybe a white port.
  20. Wood has been purchased and cuts have started. Still unsure how I want to finish this one though.
  21. I found these at Home Depot and feel fairly confident in them. They wont fall into the box when installing the screws and, given the length, should have plenty of bite to keep from spinning of pulling out.
  22. If you are talking about the grounding to the frame I recently did, yes, those holes in the frame were already there.
  23. Hmm, tax refund to pay off credit card or this?
  24. The standard version works as well. Have you tried that? They don't have a direct link to the newest version from their website, for reasons unknown. The link I got came from their facebook page, you can see it here: https://www.facebook.com/WinISD The new version really is a lot better, IMHO. When did you download it? The link on facebook was posted Nov. 2011
