    RL-i 8...Magnet? VC?

    ...I want to be able to listen to every thing and get it to sound good. So,[ ] on ported, ive decided to go 4 full 10's sealed with two wedges 22l x 12h x 9td x 11bd seperated by the arm rest but i can add a 6dx6w12h section to keep it common air and add that little bit of air space back w/o having to worry about cupping and dead air..plus i can add a notch to the bottom as well down to the floor and get alittle back that way as well so hpefully i end up with .55-.6 per sub which is right at perfect for them. I like the added output of ported but not when i'm in the mood to rock out b/c the response just aint there.

    RL-i 8...Magnet? VC?

    NO...it's either 4 SS 8's Ported or 8 sealed. Which i know their out til Oct. I'm on the list. or....it's 4 rf shallow 10's or 12's depending on whether or not i can get the low end out of such a shallow sub. I just need to know personal opinions on the subs so i can make a final desicion b/c i have the h/u and mids and highs done and i need to figure out what the box is going to look like so i can mount the amp in the right location on the back wall..... so 4 ported at less than optimum air space tuned rather high. with 500 watts per sub or 8 sealed at .2-.23 cubes per sub with 400 watts per sub or 4 RF P3 shallow 12's at less than their rec air space 400rms each sealed...or their 10's at Rec airspace <<<<this is suposed to be strictly SQ but i want lots of output as well>>> and must be shallow b/c box max is 7deep and which ever way i go i still want a design for a .3 cft box for the 8 tuned to 35hz...i just don't see how you could run that port in the box. and if you ran it out side wouldn't that increase box vol.???

    i'm ready to start building the box even though i don't have the subs yet...... Should i do 4ported with a T10001 per pair or should i do 8 sealed with a T15001 per 4 If i go ported i'd do one box behind each seat that would be wedged 12Hx 22wx 7tdx 10bd ported forward toward the seats or sealed big 21Hx 50Wx 7D with the bottom middle cut out 15x10x7 for the amps to be stacked and mounte directly on back wall.... i really don't mind going ported if i have to i just wanted the increased SQ with more linear and responsive snap bass. also how do you port a .3 cube box with a sub that massive in it? could i get a design pic or somthing from someone... I saw the TL vid but i don't have enough room for even one of those which would be nice for both SPL and SQ.

    Ranger Blowthrough

    i have two RF T1 12's in my 94 ranger and i get about 143 out of it...best way to add bass in a single cab other than going with shallow subs.... i used a sawzaw. it was def interesting...round the corners so the boot will form fit easier and make sure you get the box to seal from the bed into the cab.

    it's ceramic and alum Voice Coil....well i was hopeing it was something more powerful...lots of times the mag is a cheap material that needs to be as big as the cutout just to make up for the strength diff...ceramic is okay though i can live with that if it holds up over time. I'm in contact with this dued mike from their comp and he's keeping me in the loop...very good customer service...that makes me feel good about such a large purchase from this company.... still though anybody got any recomendations on air vol for a sealed box for max spl...i think i'll just build and see what happens then polyfil if ness.

    lowering cabin temp for better db

    wow..there is a lot of stuff being said ...as far as cool is conserned..yea it helps... the alt needs to be cool to run at max output...the box could be ran with a liquid cooling system like you would see on the inside of a pc just to help when air sucks and blows cooler air in and out of the VC...the amps same thing...build the rack in a manor so that a simple 12 volt fan with a liquid cooling system could blow over/through them and exit through a fan at the other end of the rack blowing air out of the rack. Also if you really want to push your subs to the limit, call the manf and get the thermal breakdown point of the adhesive used to hold the wire around the voice coil and put a thermometer in the box real close to the VC so you know when to back off(~20deg before the breakdown point). ( That's the first failing point on subs due to Heat, when the adhesive fails the coil pack slips off the former and causes destruction...then the former will warp or disform if the coil doesn't get your attention.) Running the A/C in the Cabin before helps(if you haven't taken it off to put another alt on, power steering pump was first to go on my truck then A/C for that few extra horsepower)...i wouldn't recomend the rapid cooling effect because of the bittleness of the magnet and voice coil...i would suggest NOS or CO2 ports in SMALL quanities if any thing radical directly into the box....LOL 75shot at most...GOT BOOST?

    HA HA LOL....their going to be out of stock until the end of Sept. I highly doubt ceramic magnet.. and the "metal" is prob aluminum and the mag shouldn't be cobalt..if it is i may consider a dif sub for my set up. I'm going to wait til they get some in until i do my set up so i can test 2 of them prior to the install of all 8.

    Okay..i've read alot of the posts concerning the SS RL-i8's...i love them...i want 8 of them in my 07 ranger....questions are What material is the Magnet Made of...What is the Voice Coil made of...What is the best sealed size for max SPL output, and can they handle the power from two RF T15001 amps at one ohm......also when/where can i buy them...the site says there out of stock....
