TREO SSI: anybody familiar with this sub?

Silver Member Username: PhuktupbassheadScottsdale, Arizona United State... Post Number: 266 Registered: May-05 | I can't access the specs for the SSI on the webpage... (my computer sucks) Does anyone have the specs or can anyone get the specs and post them for me? Also, the enclosure specifications. However, the main question is: What do you all think? I know it's rated at 750 watts, but can I give it 900 at 1 ohm and it still be strong and durable enough to withstand it? Is TREO just as dependable as DD? Thanks for your input, everyone!! |

It should take 900w no problem. as far as sealed and ported, I would go with 2.5^ft and 3.3^ft, being that for a single 12" it goes like 2^ft and 2.5^ft. As far as the dependability is concerned, the only way to tell would be under controlled environment which I cannot afford, but they're def reliable, no joke subs. I have 2 of the 12's. I hope this can help u. |

Silver Member Username: PhuktupbassheadScottsdale, Arizona United State... Post Number: 279 Registered: May-05 | my choice is between an re sx (not optimal sealed and 1000 rms) and the treo ssi (unsure of optimal enclosure specs and 750 rms) i have a mono 900 watt amp. Which would you choose and why? |

Silver Member Username: MrdarkPost Number: 102 Registered: Dec-04 | i think 1.8 and 2.2 cu ft for the 12ssi |

Silver Member Username: PhuktupbassheadScottsdale, Arizona United State... Post Number: 280 Registered: May-05 | so that means you would choose the ssi? |
|
Silver Member Username: MrdarkPost Number: 103 Registered: Dec-04 | nah, just means that i know alot more about the ssi. they are both great lil subs for the money, but i got 2 12ssi subs new for 300, now that is special that doesnt happen too often! and their shiny looking motors are beautiful in my opinion. |

Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 10486 Registered: Dec-03 | Treo has always made top notch subs.. not as common as most brands, but high quality stuff. If need be, I can dig up their website and try to find the TS specs to paste here.. if you can't get them from someone or somewhere else. I don't have their site handy.. but I haven't looked for it yet. |

Silver Member Username: PhuktupbassheadScottsdale, Arizona United State... Post Number: 302 Registered: May-05 | HEY!!! It's my long lost "sensei" (is that how you spell it?) - how you been, Glass? S,h,i,t! Long time no read! lol - But yeah, thanks for responding! You too, Muddy! So what's up? Do you think I'm gonna be happy with a TREO SSI? Just to refresh your memory: I got 900 watts and only room for a small sealed enclosure. Is the SSI for me? Looking for SQL, HOWEVER - i'm leaning more towards the SPL end of the bracket, you know? From what I gather, TREO is up there with Digital Designs (regarding durablility). Also, I've been led to believe that TREO can deliver sweet SPL while still getting very, very loud. NOW, the problem is: are people simply refering to the SSX and CSX or does the same description apply to all their products? (thanks, you guys!) |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1473 Registered: Aug-05 | the TSi series is Treo's entry level sub that gets fairly loud witht the recommended RMS rating the TSX series was designed for SQL in mind the SSi series was designed for LOUD bass, but it sound really good, imo. it's no 13W7 or any other sub designed for solely SQ and high excursion to get loud as well. the SSX was designed for BALLS OUT BASS, they also sound good, for the insane amount of bass they put out. the CSX is Treo's BALLS TO THE WALL SPL comp sub simply put. it is made for burps, but like the MT, you can tweak it to put out decent SQ. i have heard every model of the Treo's except the CSX. hope that helps  |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1478 Registered: Aug-05 | Treo SSi 12D2 ------------- Sensitivity(1W/1M) - 82.01 db Fs - 23.7hz Qms - 6.901 Qes - 0.572 Qts - 0.528 BL - 15.69T -M Xmax - 27mm Treo SSi 12D4 ------------- Fs - 25.31hz Qms - 7.177 Qes - 0.695 Qts - 0.634 BL - 20.06T -M Xmax - 27mm that is all i felt like writing, lol |

Silver Member Username: PhuktupbassheadScottsdale, Arizona United State... Post Number: 312 Registered: May-05 | So, in plain english... looks like a winner, huh? Also, the sensitivity is lower than other subs I've been researching. Any idea why and what that means? I know I'm a nuscence, but I really appreciate your help. |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1486 Registered: Aug-05 | i think that means it has a heavier/thicker cone, than say something like an IDMAX or DLS Iridium sub which has more of a paper cone. Joe Smoe says sensitivity ratings don't mean that much after you put the sub in an enclosure and start adding hundereds of watts. |

Gold Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 1594 Registered: Aug-05 | ummmm....fill the box will polyfill(makes the sub "think" it has more airspace) seal all of the inside seams of the box with some stuff(i forgot what it's called) i guess caulk would work. Dynamat your trunk, to keep it from rattling(keeps more bass inside the car instead of outside the car due from lost sound due to vibrating body panels) ummmmmmmm.....that's all i can think of right now. OH!!! and make sure you hook it up right! lol  |

Silver Member Username: PhuktupbassheadScottsdale, Arizona United State... Post Number: 316 Registered: May-05 | you like the trunk idea better than the floorboard one? Oh yeah? what about the specs on the sealed enclosure for this baby. (hey, read my other thread, man. CRAZY FIRE IN MY CAR!!!!!!!) |
