Posted June 10, 201114 yr whats up ssa, alright so i see the new zcon line is going into production soon . Right now im running a 12" bl on a aq2200 @ 2ohms. Im thinking of upgrading to something with a more ouput and more sound quality because the bl's just dont have that warm deep solid sound that im looking for. Also honestly it just doesnt get loud enough for me. So i see the new zcons and there looking pretty damn good and from what little iv read about them they are sounding like something iv been looking for for a while. So my question to you knowledgable people is do you think with that 2250 watts will it get louder then the 12" bl, i know its not a spl speaker and thats fine but its gotta get louder then the bl and sound worlds better? what do you guy that have heard one think. it would be wired to 1 ohm with 2200 watts, will have a 180a hp alt with big 3 and a hc1400 under hood and like a hc1800 in the back. im mainly looking for more sound quality and able to hit those lows with authority but also have a good amount of output. Anyone with experience please feel free, Thanks
June 10, 201114 yr Sound worlds better? What kind of box are you running the BL in? It should sound fine. Its not an SQ sub by any means, but in the right enclosure it shouldn't sound bad Edited June 10, 201114 yr by theluker69
June 10, 201114 yr i would try to build a new enclosure for the BL you have now before making a decision on a new sub. Give some info on your current box.
June 10, 201114 yr Author i have it in a very good box, 2.5 tuned to 33hz with corner bracing and flush mount built by pro rabbit over on caraudio.com forums, not saying it sounds bad ever, i said it just doesnt have the sound im looking for. i got it because i wanted something louder then my w7 and it was but it had a completly different sound. Never said the bl sounded bad, just not for me

June 10, 201114 yr Author So anyone out there hear the zcon and what do you think of the output they have? I love how there not spl speakers but they gotta have some good output with 2250 watts and 28mm of xmax

June 10, 201114 yr Author Oh wow i thought you guys were going to start production on tuesday? haha thats awsome though, my question for you mark is what do you think of there output? Can they hit lows really good, and what do you think would be the best enclosure size and tuning for a 15" zcon

It will hurt you lol. 15" in 3.0-4.0ft^3@ 26-33hz range will make you happy

Am i in the right ballpark as far as sound quality goes with that real deep thunderous warm sound?

June 10, 201114 yr Author output is what im looking for in a certain type of sounding subwoofer. Im thinking the zcon is going to be my next choice of subage, Thanks mark for your time

June 11, 201114 yr Admin Box specs for the zcons will be up soon. The suggested sizing will be similar to a tiny bit smaller then the Xcon suggested sizing.
June 11, 201114 yr Author awsome man thanks, but did you say a little bit smaller then the xcon box sizes? wouldnt the zcons need a bigger box hehe
June 12, 201114 yr Admin awsome man thanks, but did you say a little bit smaller then the xcon box sizes? wouldnt the zcons need a bigger box hehe No, different motor structure, which means different motor force. So a smaller, only slightly, box will be suggested for the Zcon's.
June 12, 201114 yr Author ok i gotcha, thats even better cuz tryna fit a 4cuft box in a 05 honda civic trunk was going to be challenging haha, you think 3-3.5cuft for a 15" would be best? and what tuning would you suggest
June 22, 201114 yr Author So today i heard that the zcons are not in production anymore . Anyone have any idea why they took them off?
