Gold Member Username: RideredderCornell, IL USA Post Number: 1983 Registered: Sep-05 | I'm still rocking the Xtants. Still haven't gotten around to running the RL-s yet. Hopefully soon I'll have that monster going. I'm going to put it in the house though. It's too much for my car. |
Gold Member Username: JoebruceTC Sounds/DLS Post Number: 3262 Registered: May-04 | Xtant? Wow theres a name I havent heard for a while! Ive always wanted to try one of their amps. BTW why did they go out of business? Welcome back Chadly! As far as subs,its still basically the same popular brands. As for myself Im now running an Ascendant Audio Havoc 15" and I freakin love it! I just ordered an Audioque 1200d to power it. Its on a JBL bpx500.1 right now only getting 700wrms. And Troy hooked me up with a 230 amp alt so when I get my AQ amp I will be installing the alt too! |

Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 23751 Registered: Oct-05 | and yeah M.S. i miss the peak days. those were some fun times on this forum. you bashing on pioneer decks, some dude's box in the pool, etc........... |
Gold Member Username: Drant19DUB-C, TX Post Number: 2202 Registered: Aug-07 | M.S. is known for buying ONLY Pioneer HU's... ChadLee, you have any plans as far as equipment for the sq build? probably an all lanzar or power acoustik build, huh? |
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 23752 Registered: Oct-05 | hahahaha yeah right. lol. naw man it won't be all fancy but will be something good. |
Platinum Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 11719 Registered: Jul-06 | Haha I've toned it down a bit on the pioneer. Theres just something about pio fans that annoys me, I think it's b/c they always seem to think those are the best HUs ever when they are not, much the same as keeker and audioburn fans. lol. |

Silver Member Username: Lord_huggingtonOntario Canada Post Number: 237 Registered: Oct-10 | I can't say enough about my RE XXX V3/ported and Eclipse SW8200/sealed. I'll be buying 12-16 SSA DCON 10's when I pick the right hatch. I ought to buy the car before I design the box lol. I see a lot of Alpine, JL, walmart-crap, RF, Powerbass, and Bassworx here in southern Ontario. Not once have I seen a friend run something like DC, DD, RE, Fi, SSA.... they're just noobs. |

Platinum Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 11725 Registered: Jul-06 | Yea JL is not a noob brand. Well, ok sometimes it is, but for noobs with big budgets, so they usually wind up with a decent system going all JL. |
Gold Member Username: Gcs8Atlanta, Ga Post Number: 1932 Registered: Sep-09 | JL = consumer product sundown = enthusiast product aka JL = they try really hard to make it where you can't f.u.c.k. it up and get where you want to be. sundown = great out come if you know what you are doing but you can set some sh1t on fire if you don't. |
Silver Member Username: Lord_huggingtonOntario Canada Post Number: 241 Registered: Oct-10 | Why would you assume that I think that JL amps are for n00bs? JL has GREAT amps. "What SUUUUUUUUUBS everyone using these days?". |

Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois Braaap MX Post Number: 3133 Registered: May-07 | Gonna start me rebuild here in the next (my license is getting suspended for 1 month, so perfect timing lol). Gonna rock the APX momentarily in the ranger to test out my new batts. also have a bunch of RD sonances laying around may throw one in the camaro or maybe build a new box for the my PG RSD's i just picked up. Will be picking one of these up this spring tho for sure. http://atmosaudio.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=13&Itemid=14 |
Silver Member Username: Lord_huggingtonOntario Canada Post Number: 243 Registered: Oct-10 | I ran an APX 12" for 2 months, and although it was an SPL sub, I just want to say that it was the worst sounding sub that I've ever heard lol, way too muddy. It killed the lows though, and barely moved on RMS. Does a BTL sound just as muddy? |
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 23753 Registered: Oct-05 | lol i'm still using my rd sq 10 and its still going strong. i love the sound of single 10 since i'm not about all bass any more. no one is using a si mag no more? i miss that sub. i think it had the cleanest sound out of all the 15s i've used. |
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 23754 Registered: Oct-05 | oh and charlie, celtics? come on they are too old now lol. |
Gold Member Username: SomedonniedudeIllinois Braaap MX Post Number: 3134 Registered: May-07 | "I ran an APX 12" for 2 months, and although it was an SPL sub, I just want to say that it was the worst sounding sub that I've ever heard lol, way too muddy. It killed the lows though, and barely moved on RMS." Really? did you buy it new and have it built for your power? or used? I think APX's are a really clean sounding spl woofer, I used to run fill tilt on my aq2200 on metal/rock and loved every bit of it. In fact a user JK32sho said his apx on his 5kw sounded way better that his btl. |
Silver Member Username: DenimSSAudio.com, MD USA Post Number: 914 Registered: Nov-06 | Have not decided for this install as it is still early in the process, but maybe stay conservative and do a single Dcon. |
Silver Member Username: Lord_huggingtonOntario Canada Post Number: 246 Registered: Oct-10 | With my stock electrical, it might have been only putting out around 750W with my 1500W @ 1ohm.... bad voltage I guess. 90A alt lol. The only mod was an 857? top plate. I bought it used off of one of the top competitors in southern Ontario (Father Yuli) for $200. Sure, it was clean, but it didn't have the aireyness of my XXX, it wasn't neutral, and was very colored. I didn't like it after hearing an over-built SQ sub. Single DCON... comon now, you know you want two 12's! |
Silver Member Username: DenimSSAudio.com, MD USA Post Number: 915 Registered: Nov-06 | I no longer have the big benz, been doing mega miles, so I have a Mazda hatch, so lot less space. Considering squeezing a pair of 12's sealed, but then all trunk space is kaput. |
Gold Member Username: Livin_loudMW2 Addict Post Number: 3388 Registered: Jan-06 |
trunk.. space? keep your technical SSA jargon when it came from. |
Gold Member Username: SkdooleyRoanoke, VA Usa Post Number: 1521 Registered: Oct-09 | I'm on the fence with the JL makes great amps statement. Their slash amps are highly inefficient and as voltage drops below 14.4 volts their current draw goes up, since they're regulated amps. Their new XD line is nice, for the size and performance, but for the money, there are comparable amps out there. Their new HD amps are smaller, but offer less filtering than the slash series and still run on the same regulated, inefficient platform. |
Silver Member Username: Lord_huggingtonOntario Canada Post Number: 252 Registered: Oct-10 | They're great because they're regulated lol, it atleast gets you to stop worrying about just how much power you're sending the subs. Better have the electrical up to snuff to use them if the current draw goes up like that, otherwise it'll just go into protect more often than another comparable amp. What's the efficiency on the 1000/1? |
Platinum Member Username: Nyyfan13Northern VA Post Number: 12062 Registered: Jul-06 | I'm still kicking it with my RL-s. I still do miss my Mag though. Maybe one day I'll get her back. |

Gold Member Username: Gcs8Atlanta, Ga Post Number: 1939 Registered: Sep-09 | I am running the 2010 fi Q but going to play with the sundown SA 15's for a while just to see what they can do. |
Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 23757 Registered: Oct-05 | sean....only sub or subs i would ever run would have to be 10s. |
Gold Member Username: Loc_outSoCal Post Number: 3289 Registered: Feb-05 | Ran a 18 RE MT for a few months on the RD3250.1. Still have the 2 15' XXX and I just bought a 3rd one. Ran a 15 RE SE on my 94 accord. Off a Mmats D1600.2 sub sounded amazing. I have a 15 RE SX waiting to be recone I was going to start a build about 3 weeks ago for the wife. Plan was to run 4 SA-8's off the mmats amp. Chrysler 300 broke down, blown eng (sold). Now we got a MDX which now she wants no system. Talking to my brother to run 4 SA-8's on his silverado. |
Gold Member Username: RedlinerWilmington, Ma Post Number: 5126 Registered: Jun-05 | nothings wrong with the alpha just dont have nething in the truck i only used it for a total of 1 month lol.

Platinum Member Username: Nd4spd18Philadelphia, PA Post Number: 11736 Registered: Jul-06 | I have 2 Eclipse 6010s in my truck. The sound great, only problem is the downfire box I have under the rear seat muffles the sound somewhat. Thinking about changing it. |
