Believe the 100.4 is 110w per channel. If you looking for 125x4, you may want to consider (2) 100.2 but you lose that wonderful crossover in the 100.4.

Beautiful install, as well as some nice subs Congrats on the win, truck looks great.

Speechless at the wall in the van, , so the Havoc 15s work well with a 32hz tune and still dig very low?

x2 on this as well. It sounds like you have a very nice OEM HU and are just trying to upgrade within you budget. The LOC you mention from Walmart is a good cheap alternative for people who have basic OEM HUs in there cars, but I def would not recommend that for you. The Rockford will give you much more options for adjusting the system, (esp handy if later down the line you upgrade your front speakers and amp them) as well as giving you much better sound quality. Trust me, ive installed plenty of those LOC, and they get the job done, but thats it. Plus, it may not even work with your HU.

Personally, I would run the 2 amps strapped at 2 ohm, you may get more output from them like that but im not completely sure. It makes for a easier install, because you only have to adjust one amp settings for you subs, (the other amp being in slave mode). Im pretty sure its going to put out more power. And as a side note, thats going to be nucking futs!!

Search is your friend....... Pioneer, Kenwood, Clarion, almost all the main stream companies have that option in some shape or form.

Thats a fair amout of area, if the 18s are like the other RLP, they will sound great sealed and really shine ported. I say stick with the pair, and if you have the room go ported, if not stick to sealed. It will sound good and be loud either way!! BTW, I am so looking foward to this build very jealous!!

Very nice, its apperent a lot of time and effort went into design these, they look so stock and functionally but sound so good. Great job! B)

Really great job Mark those subs look very serious. Any ideas about any other sizes like maybe a 15?

can't get any new vids been cold and rainning Its cool I had a set of the old Assassins, was planning to upgrade to the Arsenals at some point but company took a break for a min. Thanks for the review, im really considering those Havocs now!!

Nice build, this should be interesting when your done. I love your truck btw, I dont see them on the road too much. I was looking at the same Whip mids for a min, let us know how you are digging them too. Looking forward to the finish results!!!

Good luck with the build. I like the G35s but I had no idea the trunk opening was that small. Thats going to be a challenge for sure!

What kind of car is this in? Personally, I would just Dymanatt the rear deck to stop the rattles and leave those rear speakers holes on the deck open. It will allow more output from you sub into the car. Will it make a difference? Hard to say, every car is different. My Crown Vic had a similar issue when I had my rear speakers in place, removing them and just running front stage, released some of that "bottled up" pressure in my trunk and gave me alot more output inside my cabin. But, my seats dont fold down.

Nice, glad you enjoying the subs. Looks like they get down pretty well from the vids you took, they def look loud!!

Very nice, thats them on that Rockford right? Would 1500w each daily be too much for them? Or not nessary? Cool vids by the way, Icons are making a strong name for themselves

Vids still not working, but I will give you a A for effort. Very nice subs man.

Mike, im really sorry to hear about recent events. I apperciate all the advice you gave me over the last year or so. Soundsplinter was one of the first ''internet based'' companies that I had every heard about. The rep you established with your subs and your outstanding customer service is very well known. I dont think the price jump is that bad, I mean look at the difference with TC Sounds subs and REs compared to a year or too ago. The only regret I have is that I didnt have the money to purchase a brand new pair of RLP 15s from you recently. I have the used one, but I may just save that for some home theater use, and save my pennies and get the real thing. Outstanding products and great customer service will always outshine any trouble times ahead, def consider me a fanboi!!

Thats cool, im in Mobile near the coast. Welcome to the forum!!

Welcome, what part of alabama are you from?

"thats nonsense bro.................this sh!t hurt, lol my favorite part. crazy as always meade, very cool!

x2, they really do, and looking foward to what you think of them, esp compared to the older models you once had.

Recently purchased a used RLP 15, and have my eye on another one online. I have a friend whos going to build me a nice ported box for the subs, but until I can get the rest of the money for that, I wanted to try it sealed based on the reviews I have heard. I have a sealed box I had a pair of Kicker Comp VRs in but heres my question. The box is only 1.95 cubic feet per chamber, ( suppose to be 2.0 but is off just a lil bit) I know the displacement of the RLP 15 is 0.18 cubic feet, would I be choking the sub in that box? I thought about inverting it, to save on some space inside the box. This would only be a temp install until I can get my ported box completed. Also, im going for 3.5 cubic feet per chamber, but whats a good tune? I really like my low end, and I have heard many ported boxes but personally never owned on, and im trying to get it right the first time. I thought about 28hz, but would my high end suffer? I was also told 32hz was good for output, but I still want to have a mean low end. Would 30hz be a good compromise? Thanks

Those are some good numbers period. How is it liking that 34hz tune, I know you mention somewhere you wished it could be a lil lower. Is it still grabbing those low notes pretty well?

I think im going to consider what you mention about the sealed box idea. Im not in a serious hurry to mount it and let it rip, just wanted to run it for a min while im getting the rest of my system together. I think im going to go with a 30hz tune, should not hurt me too much on the high end, but still give me that low punch I seek. And your absolutely right about " good output " being selective. Tring to do something that will have sufficent output for me, but more that anything, it has to sound good PERIOD. The RLP is one of the reasons I got on this forum in the first place, just figured that you guys had far more experence with it and wanted another opinion. BTW, thats for that advice on my other thread, Im going fully active with the mids in lower doors (2) and the tweeter mounted up higher.

Great, thanks for the info M5, that should work fine for me.
