April 10, 201411 yr Admin Its CRAZY how long it is taking to get a basketwhen did you order it?Early Feb. Loldamn I hope I dont have to wait that long.Probably not. It probably got forgot or something. Don't know if iv even had a sub take this long Nothing was forgotten, they are just flat out slammed and working 16-17 hour days to get caught up.

Could maybe be cheaper and less time

The issue is, the constantly rising costs of materials and rising costs of building in the USA, the money is not there to grow a larger build house, and the profit is not there, not to mention the undertaking to even attempt that. What that means, is there is more demand than man power, and less profit than man power to keep up with demand. So there is no way, in the current situation, unless we raise prices to where they should be in the first place, that we could be stocking or pre-building. People want top end, premium American made subwoofers for near Chinese made prices. So something has to give. Lastly, we are not going to have an assemble yourself subwoofer, new, with the SSA logo on it. That would be untold amounts of issues for even less profit. I appreciate the input, but unless people are suddenly willing to pay for what SSA subwoofers are really worth, we do not have the option to have a large stock or expand the build house. In simple terms: "Fast, Great, Cheap, pick two."

In simple terms: "Fast, Great, Cheap, pick two." yeah I was just throwin ideas around.. wasnt tryin to start a battle or anything.. I dont ever see people posting bitching about price.. what I do see is people bitching about waiting so long for something that cost so much usually... ive tried to get a few people I know to order some zcons or evils and they usually say I would but I cant wait that long lol.. then they will turn around and pay retail for something stupid like L7s or some fosgate power series.
April 10, 201411 yr Author Well this is why I needed the recone and basket lolIts been like that for years and was still pounding. . I just kept jb welding it then it would just keep braking more and more but kept on playing fine. . . . Even went to a 15 zcon then back to using 2 12s still using this same 12 lol. . But finally decided to recone it with this new build

There is the perfect example. People want Fast, Great, and Cheap. People do complain about the price enough that I can see, too often they say they won't buy SSA because they think it is over priced because they can just order something else that is FAR FAR cheaper to build that they mistakenly think is on the same level.
April 10, 201411 yr well im not complaining about the price.. I just cant afford it like some of these others can but im a firm believer in that you get what you pay for... and casey sorry for takin over you build log with this my bad.. and damn that basket has been trough hell and back lol

In simple terms: "Fast, Great, Cheap, pick two." I wonder what SSA subs are really worth since the store pricing seems to be undercutting it? Just curious
