I dont like the lower lines of JL as for deadener 60 mill is good for most installs...

yeah i was liking those image dynamics, but is there a guide for installing deadener? where should i start? door panels or in the trunk?

Look up Sound Deadener Showdown that should give you a start...

Should i get two or one of the SSA Icon 10" woofers?

One, I don't think you would want to give up the room for two. Depends also on the box, sealed or ported?

Im trying to get a custom ported box, i mean i don't know much about SSA subs, how would one ICON-10 D2 10" compare to the two alpine 10" type e subs that i have now?

How much room would it take up just having one? in a custom ported box?

 

[rock2593 10+ year member]

The alpines with a box should be able to sell for like $200 on craigslist if you're patient.

how much would they sell for if i sold them with the box included and with the Rockford p300-1 amp?

check out ssaudio.com. Look under the Icon for the predesigned enclosures. It will give you some dimensions

so basically I'm going to have no trunk space at all?

Not really, you will give up some space though, SSA's box design is 26w x 12.5h x 15d but you can play with those numbers. Make the box wider and less deep. for example a box 32w x 14h x 11d would give you about the same airspace,

Im not positive on what the dimensions are for my 2008 35x sedan's trunk so I'm gonna have to look that up and make sure the box would fit. because i know my trunk has a lot of unnecessary bumbs and curves that make it hard for a box to fit

Yeah, can't remember what the trunk is like, I was || that close to getting an 08 myself. Had a deal worked out with the dealer, downpayment paid then found out some bad things about the dealer so backed out.

Time to break out a tape measure.
