RL-p15/When will they be in stock?

Recommended Posts

When will you guys get them back in stock?

It's either one 15 or two 12" and I really don't want to spend the money for an amp to power two 12"'s...

As far as the RL-p15 goes... 600 watts should be enough power for a ported box right? Could I go higher?

Thanks in advanced!

600 wrms os a rl-p will be perfect. could you go higher? yeah, but you won't need too..just build a nice ported box...3-3.5ft^3, 40-50in^2 of port, tuned about 30-32hz...equates to much fine wangage!!

I guess I'll make a short story long...

I ordered two RL-p 15"s a couple weeks ago and got them last week. One of them had a small dent in the cone and I talked to Mike through e-mails. He said one of two options, get a new one (shipping on him) or take a partial refund. I chose option two. Point of the story he told me that the 15's will be out of stock for 2-3 weeks if I wanted to get a new one. So my guess is 2-3 weeks...

BTW he handled the entire situation with the utmost professionalism and am very happy with everything. Can't wait to get those puppies pumping--3 ft^3 each tuned to 28 hz. :slayer:

Hey Airmack--

If you haven't already done it, shoot me a PM or an email with your email address,

so that I can notify you as soon as the new 15's are in. Now with that being said,

let me lay out this madness for ya'll.

For some reason, the supplier making our cones is just slow as all get out. I put

in the order for the 15" cones in late March, and nearing two months later - we

finally received the first batch. Unfortunately, the cones did not meet our cosmetic

specifications (mechanically, they will perform perfectly). The cones they have sent

do not have the same defined texture and gloss that they usually do, and appear

flat or "matte" - peep these pic's for a comparison:

200605-gloss.jpg

I myself prefer the deliciously brushed finish, so I've rejected the majority of these.

Since it will take at least 4 weeks to have the new cones produced and shipped to

the assembly plant in San Diego, I am having a small run of 15's produced (both

dual 2 and dual 4) using these matte cones, in order to satisfy immediate demand.

They should be ready absolutely no later than the end of the month, and people on

the waitlist will have priority to purchase. I will of course fully disclose the cone

design on these 15's to any interested parties, such that there won't be any surprises.

Hehe, well yours is different alltogether, not being annodized, but rather painted over polished aluminum. I like those too, these ones that I just received are kind of in the middle of the completely flat matte from our first production runs, and the textured brushed annodized that we currently use. There is some texture on these, but in comparison to the usual, it is not nearly as rich.

I'll have some installs pics for you to use in a month Mike. :D

We're really sorry bout that Mike, our vender got a chit storm for this. It takes over 2 months to re-order the damn things.

15? Rep'ing :D

Yep. That was an RL-p15 versus an ID10. I think we all know who won.

And I believe that mine came out of the very first batch of logo'd cones. So don't discriminate! :)
