2 rl-i8s ported

[cpcg32 0]

I am looking to build a ported box for a pair of rl-i8s. The maximum trunk space I can give up is 37.5x16.5x8.5. Can I build a ported box this small and would these subwoofer be good for this setup? I am also considering useing 2 or 3 Crystal CMP8s. I am looking mostly for SQ but want those extra low tones a ported box can give.

Thanks

Thats more than enough space for 2 RL-i's

P.S

RL-i looks better than a CMP-8

Kent, have you ever heard an RE8?

Kent, have you ever heard an RE8?

nope. heard good things about them, but never experienced them myself. only re woofer i've heard was the xxx...and after all the hype, i was disappointed with it. (as everyone knows)

why? u gonna loan me one?

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[Acidburn 10]

i dont own one either, but i was just interested in a comparison between the RL-i8 and the RE8

my friend has 2 of the REs in his truck so i know what they sound like

[mrray13 30]

well, considering power, i beileve the rl-i would kill it in output. and that isn't even taking into consideration xmax or anything.

also, from playing with the rl-p vs xxx, i'd imagine the rl-i would at least sound as good, or better...

but then there is the price. u can buy what, 2 of the re's for one rl-i? and then there is CS, and re can't hold mike's jock in that.

but i wouldn't mind throwin a few at each other...have ur friend send me his...

muhahahaha

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Thanks for the help. I will probably be buying the subs in about a month, depending on how the cash flow is. (I am also going to be buying some components). So I guess I will go 1.5cuft. Trying to use winisd I can't get my numbers right so I may just have some draw plans for me. Also, does anyone have an amp recomendation for a pair of the rl-i8s?

[mrray13 30]

any decent amp...between 800-1200wrms...

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
