hdorre Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 The 10" SSA Icon has recently caught my interest, and I'd like to know about it more. Overall, how is this subwoofer in terms of parts and design? Also, how is the manufacturer in terms of customer support? If I get the pair of tens, then theyll be ran at 1 ohm on a Sundown 3k. This will be a mainly daily setup, and will play mostly the Hip Hop, Rap, and R&B thats on the radio. Ill go to car shows every couple of months to compete, but SPL < Music to me. Does anybody have experience with the Icon? What are your thoughts?

Craig28 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Aren't SSA subs completely American made? They look to be of pretty good quality.

You never know how strong you are until you cold-cock a woman in the head and break that bitches jaw. Next time she tries to punch you in the stomach, whip your wiener out and chase her around.

For your sake, I hope that doesn't happen lol. I dont mind if people talk badly about the company or sub as long as they have personal experience and/or legitimate information. With that being said, I dont want a straight up pissing match On 5/8/2011 at 7:38 PM, Kranny said: On 5/8/2011 at 7:35 PM, 'Maxim' said: It hurts me inside when I read stuff like this and remember you're 15 LMFAO so true Mitsubishi 3000GT (Old Build) Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: (2) McLaren Audio MLT-2 Tweeters & (4) PRV Audio MR Series Neo 6.5" Mids Substage: 4 15" Hybrid Subs - Tantric Motors & Sundown Softies Amps: Banda 2.4D Amp (Tweets), American Bass VFL 350.4 (Mids), and (2) Ampere 3800s Electrical :Singer 260A Alt & JY Power Lithium 2005 Chevy Colorado Ext Cab Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: 4 PRV 700Ti Tweets & 6 10" Delta Mids on 3000wrms Substage: 6 Fi BTL 18s in a 4th Order Walkthrough on 3 Wolfram 4500s Electrical: Singer "390" and JY Power My Official Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hdorre Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Aren't SSA subs completely American made? They look to be of pretty good quality.

I just want to know about the sub lol On 5/8/2011 at 7:38 PM, Kranny said: On 5/8/2011 at 7:35 PM, 'Maxim' said: It hurts me inside when I read stuff like this and remember you're 15 LMFAO so true Mitsubishi 3000GT (Old Build) Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: (2) McLaren Audio MLT-2 Tweeters & (4) PRV Audio MR Series Neo 6.5" Mids Substage: 4 15" Hybrid Subs - Tantric Motors & Sundown Softies Amps: Banda 2.4D Amp (Tweets), American Bass VFL 350.4 (Mids), and (2) Ampere 3800s Electrical :Singer 260A Alt & JY Power Lithium 2005 Chevy Colorado Ext Cab Headunit: Pioneer 80PRS Frontstage: 4 PRV 700Ti Tweets & 6 10" Delta Mids on 3000wrms Substage: 6 Fi BTL 18s in a 4th Order Walkthrough on 3 Wolfram 4500s Electrical: Singer "390" and JY Power My Official Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevyBoy95 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 every ssa sub i have heard excelled over most in sound and efficiency. this is from in person first hand listening.

Dangrebel Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 When you buy an ssa sub, you not only get outstanding build quality, but outstanding sound!!!!! The icon is sorta like the the all around daily sub, it takes a beating and sounds excellent. And they just revised the motors and soft parts for better cooling and higher power handling. 1999 GMC Yukon, 6 PSI platform 5 18's, 4th order bandpass by BHE, Taramps, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
