    Problems with RLP-15's

    Oh yea, it destroys my brothers system. I'll have to take the subs out and check them with a battery when I get home just to make sure everythings hooked up right. I got the edi6500's hooked up last weekend and they sound great.

    Problems with RLP-15's

    All I can say is wow! These things are loud. The bass is very clear even at full volume. I really didnt know what to expect from these except for reading the forums but I'm glad I bought them. I'll recommend them to anybody I know whos looking for new subs. Anyways here are some photos of the install in my Nissan Titan. I'm running - 2 RLP15's 2.75ft each @ 29Hz edi 6500 component set Elemental Designs nine.1 and nine.2x Alpine IVA-D310 lcd screen Iraggi 200amp alternator Optima Red Top Big Three in 0 gauge whole interior sound deadened with edead v1se2

    Problems with RLP-15's

    Thats a good idea. I dont know why one sub was out of phase with the other. I hooked it up in a 1 ohm config which meant all of the positive terminals would be tied together same with the negatives. I guess something was mismarked. The only other thing i could think of is the nine.1 is 1 channel but has two positive and two negative speaker terminals that are tied together internally to make it easier to hook up two subs and I guess one set could have not been marked right.

    ANeonRider, you are the best. I changed the polarity on one sub and it works great. The neighbor kid came running over to my house saying he could hear the subs in his house across the street with the doors closed and my garage door was closed too! Thanks for your quick reply!!

    I pulled the subs out of the boxes and checked the wiring with a DMM. Everything is hooked up correctly. Does having the ports and subs pointing up kill some of the output?

    Problems with RLP-15's

    I bought 2 15" RLP D4's a couple months ago and finished installing them in my Nissan Titan last weekend. The subs and ports are both firing upward in the cab. I have them hooked up to an elemental designs ed 9.1 amp at 1 ohm. I set the gains using a -3dB 50hz sine wave and set the output to 34.64 VAC which equates to 1200watts. The subs are in separate 2.75ft ported boxes tuned to 29Hz with 30 square inches of port area. The problem I am having is the subs dont get loud at all even though they have alot of excursion. My brothers system (in an S-10) which is 2 old sounstream spl 12's in sealed enlosures running off of a kicker kx350 blows mine away. I have an Alpine IVA-D310 head unit and have also ran the subs off of my brothers head unit which didnt make much difference. I know its not a power issue because I have a 200amp alternator and have done the big three in 0 gauge. Ive tried everything to get them to get louder but nothing helps. I thought I would sign up here and see if you guys had any more suggestions. Thanks
