New system finally coming together...US Amps, CDT, OZ Audio

[LaserRed38 10+ year member]

So I've been planning everything out for a while now. Got my Audison LRx2.4 sold. Sent payment out for a US Amps AX 5600. Decided to go with this instead of a new PDX-5 because it is 1 ohm stable for the sub channel (and just sexy looking). One of my mids from the 620s...cone separated from the spider, so I got some ES-6 mids coming. When the amp and the new mids get here, I'm planning on running the comps active. I was planning on a new IDQv3, but talked to a shop owner in Colorado who sells Critical Mass, ID and OZ Audio and he said he has personally used all 3 subs in his car (and competed with), and he actually preferred the OZ Matrix Elite over the Q and the CM SS lines, and they are all about the same price, so I am most likely going to go with a 12" OZ Audio ME if I can get it to fit without fiberglassing. If not, going to go with a 10". I have a very small space to work with, as I want everything to be behind my rear shock tower brace. So I'm pretty excited. Just wanted to share. I've been without bass since last July //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif. BTW, sub is going in a sealed box. Think everything should sound good?

LoL, man of a few words. Pics will definitely be in order...

Should sound wonderful man. What kind of power does that US make for the OZ? They start getting loud around 500 watts or so, and can take 1.2k or so daily, depending on box and gains.

Also, pics or ban.

And let me know what you think of the ME, I loved the couple that I've heard.

The 5600 puts out 500w @ 1 ohm so it should be pretty good. Pretty much for sure going sealed so I will let you know. I probably won't order the sub for another 2 weeks though because my company got bought out and part-timers no longer accrue vacation time, so I have 40 hours of vacation time being paid out to me on my next check...pretty much = new sub and box materials lol. Mids and amp will be here this week...pics coming soon...

Nice man. Like I said, about 500 watts gets them going pretty nicely. What volume you planning on running? The 12 I heard was in about 1.25 or so net with ~450 watts on it sealed, and it was pretty impressive for such little power.

Hmm...I will try and fit as big as I can, but I don't think I can get any bigger than 1 ft^3 in the spot that I want the box to fit. Might end up going with the 10. I need to take some measurements, but not too worried yet until I get closer to ordering. Mids are to be delivered today! wOOt!

LoL, coming soon. Got a bit of dynamat on the doors, but not enough. I wish I had the time/skills to glass my doorpanels and kicks. Pics of the amp can be seen here: http://www.caraudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=293441

Hopefully will get here by the end of the week if he ships it out early today. Sub won't be here for a couple weeks so I will just update the thread then. Does anyone know if my 9835 can control a PXA-H701? I want to get one, but don't want to mount/hide the controller for it...
