    well, it's good to hear that as the more you play it, the more you like it! my 12 impresses me everytime i listen to it. it just gets so damn low..lol...

    anyway, with the 500wrms, i would have suggest about 2ft^3 myself..have you tried to slug the current box just to drop volume some and see how it sounds? would be an easy way to see how right i am..lol..

    wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:

    Im intrigued, how do I slug a box to change current volumes. Cause Id love to try it.

    well as I look around the web on other sites, RL-ps are mentioned or posted pictures, but it is still a small presence, nothing like the immediate on slaught by the Ascendant Audio, Chad is a good guy, but I don't know all the details, but AA has a much larger presence,

    thats whats cool about PowerBass, Stereo Integrity and Sound Splinter, they all make a great product, the service is top notch and not every chuckle head out there runs them, this leaving a level of exclusivity, and req made a good statement more companies should be like these guys

    Kicker has excellent customer service but they sell on a level greater than the above three combined (different mission)

    I don't know if this was mentioned, and I don't want to read the whole thread right now, but I will just throw this out there.

    Go look at Sounddomain. Some of the "senior" members are really pumping AA up. I would imagine they are nice subs, but these guys have told everybody to buy AA. Which is fine I guess.

    I haven't owned any SS products, but I wouldn't hesitate. Maybe I will want or need something eventually :)

    Nevermind the last post, this is one of my bandwagons, I've never used there subs and I never intend to.

    I stand behind Dan Wiggins, I'm arogant too.

    I didnt read every post here because Im lazy but ill give my opinion on bandwagons, so through the eyes of James.

    I shoot from the hip, if I dont like it im going to tell you. If im skeptical you will know, I give credit where it is deserved and im never quick to jump the gun. Everything must stand the test of time to me. I will never call out bandwagon stuff because im never looking to offend anyone.

    Ill read everything tomorrow, possibly add another not so critical evaluation of things.

    I got a kicer 700.5, 890 on he birth sheet and I think im going too keep the amp for a little while. My goal this set up was to down size power, while still retaining a lot of sub potential.

    Too bad I already sold my Big Belle.

    Yeah I ordered a 15 and got it Thursday, and installed it the same day of course. Im liking it more and more as I play with it. I can see good things coming out of this woofer.

    well, i hope it does better as u open it up. i thinkthey are well worth the price, but i only have a 12 and a 8..lol....

    why so big sealed? i would think the 15 rl-p would really shine in about 1.75-2ft^3 sealed...

    let us know about ur ported try too!!

    I only have around 500 watts and the last time I was asking this question I was getting answers of 2-2.2 for sealed, even Mike said the same exact thing.

    As for large sealeds not sounding as good, I know, I just didnt feel I had the power for a small enclosure. Should have done more research, which is evident because I had no idea they're a metal cone woofer either, haha oh well...

    Woofer is working great so far, its got about 2 more hours of playttime on it. Mike whats the breakin period on these?

    Get it yesterday and its seen about 3 hours of play time and its working great. Very basic looking which I like, BUT I also didnt know you could get chit put on the cone.

    its in 2.5cubes gross, 2.3ish net. Box sounds good, I like big sealeds, definitly muddy on some songs. Woofer is working great im not pushing it hard right now but ill open it up in another few weeks.

    So far its a good woofer. I'm anticipating opening it in up a few weeks to justlfy the 300 dollar price tag, also at which time I will have tried it out in a ported box so I can make that comparasion.

    With that Im off to do some more tuning, and crank Guns N Roses. And im going to eat a Rochester Garbage plate, I know Njcc is jealous.

    I am always hesitant about brand new amplifers, meaning I wait on buying amps from a company that was not making amps before

    Especailly when the dont seem to be that popular, I have never heard any talk about them.

    Some companies I feel I'd trust, Like the DD amp, I have never heard much about that either but I feel it would most likly be a rock solid amp, especially compared to alot of amps out there today...

    I just noticed that Treo is selling amps these days, looks they picked them up damn near a year ago too. Has anyone used or seen these at all, it looks like a nice amp and I'm sure it peforms equally as well. Does anyone know if they're using someone elses boards in them?

    I bet they only cost 2 arms and half a leg. :hyper:

    Im getting a 12o soon.

    Just waiting for it to show up on my doorstep.

    Any pics of the install ?

    I wish, it will be a long time before I get my hands on that car again. Unfortunaly hes across seas in Iraq defending the homeland...God bless his soul. Hes been over in that general area of the world for the last 3 years. Did his 4 years in the military, did a tour in Afgan, and Bosnia. His 4 years were up so he signed up for national gaurd reserves being promised that he wouldnt be shipped back b/c he wanted to go to school. Signed up, week later got a letter saying you have a month before your back in Texas doing hazard training. Now in Iraq.

    :gheychase:

    Thats for the troops

    :finger:

    Thats for everyone else over there

    Ive had great luck with Memphis, 1500D, 1000D, and 1300D a little underrated, small foot print and if you get the Studio series Very Beautiful IMO. But I ended up going with kicker this time, though I would have liked a Belle 600D, or that damn Tarantula 800/5 to bad that fell through.

    Im not sure if any can be obtained for under 250, but if you take denims advice and do it right the first time then you have a lot to play with down the road.
