Posted April 11, 201213 yr Hey SSA! My Uncle Brad sold his MA's last month and now he wants something wayy louder & lower (146db+). He has all the equipment he just needs subs & his enclosure is 6-7cuft after displacements tuned to 29hz! For the last 2 weeks we looked at subs online & came to either 2 15" SSA Xcons, Fi BL's (Hyper Pole & Flatwind Coil), or DC Level 4m2's. We never owned or heard these subs so if u guys have or heard any of them please helps us out here!Thanks!BTW:Subs will be firing in cabin & Amp is a Hifonics ZRX30001.D(CEA Rated!)
April 11, 201213 yr Author What is the rest of "all the equipment"???Big III done, Sub enclosure, Amp, Stock alt, Kenwood Headunit, Kicker amp kit, & 1 Kinetik HC2000. Need anything else?
April 11, 201213 yr Randy, what model amp is it? And is he aware the Kicker has a fixed SSF of 25hz? Just curious
April 11, 201213 yr Author If he is tuned at 29hz he is gonna need a lot of power to hit 146+.Thats Exactly what I said. As far as power he has a lil over 3k. He mainly wants lows & I think any of those 15's + 3k + 29hz tuning = 1 low end chest hittin Monster. He should be somewhere in the 140db class though for sure not 130's

I misread thinking you meant Kicker amp but you stated Kicker amp kit... lol
April 11, 201213 yr Don't know about the numbers as no one else will either.. Box tuning and size will determine alot of that and we can't just say yep, 2 Xcons at 29hz will hit 150+ with 3000w
April 11, 201213 yr How much port are does the enclosure have? Is it braced properly? You can't just throw new subs in and expect good results. Knowing the volume and tuning doesn't tell us enough.

Knowing the volume and tuning doesn't tell us enough.If I'm right he has about 168in port area & its braced good.Anything else you need to know about enclosure?

April 11, 201213 yr I would lean toward the XCON or BL as I have owned and been happy with both of them. The XCON is just a bit better sounding in my opinion. Either setup should be loud if it is a good enclosure.
April 11, 201213 yr honestly what ever he wants cause none of these guys here posting for sure are not going to pay for the sub why satisfied someone else's taste

Did you ever get both subs metered & what were your pros & cons on both?I have no complaints for the BL at all. But the XCON is one of my all time favorite drivers. It gets loud, low and sounds excellent. I have had many many subs over the past few years (Fi, SSA, JL, Image Dynamics, Sundown, Arc, Rockford, Alpine, Boston Acoustics, and many more)I can honestly say that the BL and the XCON are in my top 5 with the XCON ahead for my taste.

I find that hard to believe.Notice the bold/underlined word. I had to read it two or three times the first time too, lol.On another note, at least from the experience I've had with MA subs, he'll be leaps and bounds ahead of where he was just having a quality sub such as either of these. I've never owned either so I'll leave recommendations up to those who have.
