Okay... starting over again after all the Gcon talk. Couldn't resist the value of the Icon. So the Icon 12" is on its way and I have decided to build 2 boxes. 1 will be a 1 ft^3 sealed box with front double baffle, while the other will be a ported box tuned between 35 and 25 of a TBD volume. Chances are I will probably keep it similar to the pre designed enclosures that SSA has on the product page for the Icon. I have made plenty of sealed boxes before but have never built and heard a truly well built ported box so I am looking forward to the build. But a couple questions first for the current Icon users out their. I listen to all music; I can leave the drive way listening to Five finger death punch, get to work listening to Garth Brooks, leave work listening to eminem, and get home listening to Awolnation. It's weird I know. I am willing to try the ported box, but I am worried about 2 things. Fast response, and higher notes (lets say 60-80hz, the Hd 62's seem to lack a little there and the M6's free air don't quite pick it up enough so I am hoping that the sub can pick it up just a tad). So you Icon guys what size and tune do you run and how do SSA's pre designed box sizes work out?
Thanks guys,
Austin
