Posted October 29, 201212 yr I have a 350z and I was looking for a good sub to have ported....i know dustin from dc creations and okc and he said i should check out the gcon. Reason for the gcon is that I wanna use my old amp i still have which is ED nine.1 monoblock. The problem I was having was the space issue and and the weird shape of my trunk with the strut bar in the back. I was hoping this would be a good combo for my car cause im tired of not having any lows. I was originally gonna get a SA8 or a 10 but Dustin said these subs are pretty bad-A. Any help from ppl that have messed with a Z or know if i should take a different route or any help would be great.
October 29, 201212 yr Author Yeah it is...thought I would just turn the gain down quite a bit if I needed to.
October 29, 201212 yr Yeah it is...thought I would just turn the gain down quite a bit if I needed to.Either will work, but the ICON will definitely handle the power better.
October 29, 201212 yr Author Wouldnt the icon need more airspace thought to be ported?? Like I said the problem was finding a sub that could handle the amp while using the least amount of space because of the shape of my trunk.
October 29, 201212 yr Author I just looked and they seem to need about the same amount so i guess it would just come down to the price point between the 2 and output.

October 29, 201212 yr Author So would the gcon be tight and deep still in a ported enclosure?? I listen to mainly rap rock and some techno.

October 29, 201212 yr hmmmm choices choices then lol. Well thx rick...ill see which one i go with. I saw that there was a waiting period for subs??SSA subs are built to order in Las Vegas. They take ~3-4 weeks to receive, but they are well worth the wait.
October 29, 201212 yr Author Im not in a huge hurry....that would give me time to deal with the box issue then. Like i said thx again rick.
