November 10, 200915 yr thanks..... are you considering murdering it out completly at some point?just curious with the blacked out features it already has.I like the build so far, looking good.chop
November 10, 200915 yr r u going with a enclosure in the trunk firing forward, sealed off? curious what sub enclosure plans you have with that XCON, you said SQ with impressive SPL......so far you are on the right track, great sounding sub.chop
November 10, 200915 yr Author r u going with a enclosure in the trunk firing forward, sealed off? curious what sub enclosure plans you have with that XCON, you said SQ with impressive SPL......so far you are on the right track, great sounding sub.chopThe enclousure plans are to raise the trunk floor an inch, then convert the spare tire well into the enclosure so I can flush mount the subwoofer, so it will be firing vertical instead of horizontal.The only thing im not sure on yet is sealed or ported, if I ported it I would shoot for 35hz and port it into the passenger compartment, but I love how tight sealed sounds and this sub has the capability, so im not sure yet.

November 13, 200915 yr UPDATE 11-12-09 : First package arrived today!1/0AWG Gold Terminals!W00tLOLI hate those kinda terminals since it is hard to overtighten them to wire without stripping the thread on the little turn piece, plus the wiring can slip out if not tight enough or getting pulled someway or somehow. Just my .02 but keep the build log going.
