Haha nice! I am super impressed with my XCON's on 650 rms each.

1200wrms would be cool.eek5wavey.gif

Damn.. you bored.

But, but, but, I thought they needed 4000 watts to get moving yo!

nice!

Yeah those 4" coils don't move on anything less.

i've messed with high powered subs on low power and even under 100w actual, output is surprising.

That is pretty damn good for 600 watts. 

nice

Good shit :)

Question though, what happened to the tail light?.....one tinted & other not or is that a cover?

Car accident, never got it repainted.

Thanks everybody for the kind words!! This thing sounds amazing.

Vedy nice, vedy nice sir

How can a sub with such a high rms rating do so well with low power? Also, where can I learn more about this? Awesome vid, still amazed...

The RMS rating has nothing whatsoever to do with how much power a driver needs, how loud it will get or how it will sound.  In fact, it is the most meaningless spec you get when you buy a driver.  It also has nothing to do with matching up an amplifier.  All it the RMS rating tells you is what power level it takes to drive the voice coil into thermal failure.

Given what you just said 95honda, then all SSA subs should sound the same at the same power as long as it doesn't exceed what they can handle??? Where do you guys learn this shit?

 aww how cute you think the only diffrence between the SSA lines is the RMS rating

It's cute to you because you guys are pros. I'm still trying to learn this and it seems there is no one source with all the answers. Almost to the point of throwing in the towel and saying f it and just save it.

I sure wouldn't call everyone here pros by any means bro.

If stereo is your hobby, enjoy it.

well your statement was not in the form of a question bud,

 

 it was more of a rude statement,.

 

 

 here are some specs from a FI woofer...

 

 here is the spec from a FI Q  12 inch woofer. Spl: 89.6dB 1W/1m | 89.4dB 1W/1m

 

                                      fi BTL n2 Spl: 91.1dB 1W/1m | 90.8dB 1W/1m

 

 so  most people think.. if you have 500 watts to play with.. that the Q would be a better sub because it has a lower RMS . but thats just not so... as you can see the watt to DB level clearly shows that if you put 500 watts to the 12 Q and  meter it. the  BTL N2 12 will be louder in the same setting.  same box same power same everything...

 

 dig it?
