SoundSplinter

Yesterday I drove my car through one of those touch free car washes cuz I was lazy. Well today I opened up my trunk and saw grey spots splattered all over my box. Somehow the water from the car wash got in my trunk. I look at my sub and the cone is discolored from whatever was used to wash my car. The middle of the cone where the water was sitting is very faded and when the sub hit, the water splattered all over the cone. Does anyone know a way that I could take all the color out of the cone so the whole cone will be the same color? The cone looks horrible right now. Any ideas would be great. Thanks, Matt

I'm looking to blow some minds of the ghetto people around here who think bigger is better. I was thinking about running 4 RL-i 8's tuned to around 30hz off of a Hifonics 2006d. I'm hitting 142db currently with a single 9500 12, and would like to at least be just as loud, if not louder. What do you guys think?

Click the image below for the VIDEO!!! Enjoy.

i see that it says the RLs is for home use, will it work fine for car audio

Hi I am thinking of getting this sub for HT use. I intend to use it with a 350w plate amp, so I require the DVC 2 ohm version. Will the amp power the sub sufficientlly in a ported box? Also, will SS ship to overseas. thanks

I have read that some folks have installed dynamat on the inside walls of their sub enclosures. Would this improve output? Thanks JJ

I started out with 5^3 @30Hz for 2 15's per Mike from SS. SQ was excellent and lows were amazing. I consider this my reference box. Then I went to 5.8^3 @35Hz. Was shooting for 6^3 @ 34Hz, but did some goofy math at 2am. Subs had more punch in the mid/upper bass, but lacked low end compared to the "ref" box. It was definitely louder, but lacked impact. I tried it for 2 days and didn't care for it. I extended the ports and ended up with 5.4^3 @ 32Hz. I consider this the ultimate tune for LSQ. Plenty of deep lows, loud as he!!, and still very articulate and musical. Kick drums literally beat the car to death. Thank god for the 150#'s of sound deadener I have in there, but…

I bought an rlp 15 today. Mike is the man btw. I dont know what kind of amp I need. I have a clk and will be doing a 2.0 cft box I want club-type bass if that makes sense. I like rap and house music. I need an amp, and I think I want to do my front speakers as well because i have blose right now I have an avic d2 as my deck. what kind of tweets/midrange do I need? as affordable as possible, but I want them to be able to keep up with the bass. Pleaseeeee help me with your suggestions. thaaaank you

I know that this new RL-p setup has got to be loud. I know it will be. In the back of my mind I can't quit thinking, oh my gosh what if it isn't?? I keep thinking that a small box woofer doesn't lend itself to getting too loud. I'm coming from a 15" Ascendant Audio Atlas in 4.8NET @ 31hz. What I am wanting out of this setup is the following.... Twice as loud as the Atlas. More authority in the 60-80hz region, where the atlas lacked. By the numbers, it should be at least twice as loud, but I keep thining...its audio, chit doesn't always happen how formulas say, I may be dissapointed. I've got twice the cone area, 6mm more linear excursion, and the output advantage of not…

I just took this short clip right now after i polyfilled my box. 12" RLP 2 cubes tuned to 33. Song played: Presidential Tish this is also with 2-3 layers of hazmat on the lid http://media.putfile.com/Jesus-Dance

well my car is now satisfying all the time, from a standing start i can set volume to a nice sexy pleasing level-on anything! and start journey, sound is fantastic all the way up to about 60mph where road noise etc dictates a slight tweak of the volume, but other than that i can set volume and have no loss of sq between 0 and 60! my home audio is equally as pleasing? so what do i do now? ? ?

click here for the new otherstuff section don't forget to click the customer installs...lol, shameless plug coming...as i have the first one listed..hehe make sure ya checkit out!! and if ya got SS stuff...send pics to mike..post it here(showoff section or here) and let mike know it's ok to throw them up at his site! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I wanted to get this amp but will it give sufficient head room for the sub. I know that sundown amps are awesome which is why i want one but some people say you need a little more power on the amp than what the sub needs. The sub will be ported to which mike recommends only 800 watts to it (I think). That will give an extra 200 watts in solitude until called upon during spikes in bass lines. Is that enough or do i need more? I want this one because its cheaper than the 1500d. Any suggestions and confirmations will be greatly appreciated.

What would be the best setup for under rear seat of Dodge ram quad cab box@ about 1.8 ft^3 ? Want it to get loud but still sound good. Any suggestions would be appriciated. One Rlp 12" seald Two Rli 10" ported Two Rli 8" ported

Hey, Im new in this forum I am trying to find out if there is a dealer that carries SS RL-p15 in Canada, or is there only one place to get this beast - The One and Only SS Website. I WANT IT !!!!!!! Im in Ontario, Canada so if there is anyone that can help me out, or has a brand new RL-p15 for sale close to me, i will be more than glad to pick it up. Thank you

Im considering getting an rl-P 15". My last setup was 2 12" L7's and I wasnt satisfied with their sq. I will be putting it in a ported box in my ext. cab Toyota Tacoma. What size box would you recommend? I have up to 4cu.ft. of room but heard that the rl-p would be well satisfied with 3.5 or less.Also will I be happy with how loud it will get after being used to hearing my last install? From what I've read I will be with the subs sq.Thanx 4 any help.Sry 4 all the q's.

I just wanted to say thank you for putting out such an amazing little product. I just purchased an April 2k5 built SoundSplinter RL-i 8" subwoofer off of eBay after ripping a hole in the surround of my old fart JL 8w6. Needless to say, I'm definitely a SoundSplinter convert now. The quality of the product, the performance of the product, and the value of the product blow away anything I've ever experience in the 8" sub arena. Thank you again for such a wonderful line of products. Chances are, I'll be purchasing a couple revised RL-i 8" subs directly from you once they come out. It's about time to add some much needed quality to my home theater setup.

Im looking to put a pair of sl-i10 in my dodge quad cab. The box will be fitting underneath the seat with dual .57 cu. ft. chambers. I need to know if this is enough airspace to run these, and also how much power to run to them. I am looking at either a KX 850.2, or maybe a KX1200.1 or something to that sort. Also, i shoud use polyfill in the box...right?

Has anyone gotten their rlp18s metered yet?

I just finish installing my RL-p today and i found the subs doesn't hit that hard and solid, it goes low but, i feed it with 1000rms. Does the inverted installation has anything to do with this?? I used to put the sub in a normal way but in a larger box, it hit harder and more solid but a lot peaky. The current box has around 1.3cuft net (with the magnet outside)

FTW....

I just realized that I've never posted this over here. I put it one CA.com a while ago, but it would be nice to copy it onto this board, considering the content. So... This being my first sub box, I was a bit unprepared for fiberglass. Skin allergies and fiberglass fibers/resin/sharp points do not mix very well. Also, it

Ok i have an rl-p15 run off a 9.1 at 2ohms. What is the recommended size for a sealed box when giving it 800 watts. I have it in a 2.5 cu.ft right now and i think it could sound a little better. im looking for some more sq b/c it gets really loud and low.

apparently there isnt enough room for a ported enclosure for my 2 rl-p 12's in my 87 trans am. i'm putting them in the well facing straight up, i THINK this will sound the best. thing is i havent built a box in years, and i only helped with a simple sealed box for a trunk, this one will be a lot more complex getting it to fit snug. i've got an elemental designs nine.1 amp, and i think the 12s should be right in their sweet spot with it turned up all the way at 1 ohm, right? they're d4s. i want as much space as possible right, and separate chambers for each 12? http://thirdgen.org/techbb2/showthread.php...threadid=306257 here is a design for a generic sealed box that was …

My friend and I built a box for his 1998 silverado extended cab. He has 2 15" rlp's and an Orion 1200w amp. The box is a total of 8.461ft^3 with 69.75in^2 of port area and port length of 26 inches. The box is so big it can only be fired up or down. It is currently firing up and my friend is not satisfied with the output of the subs. There is a lot of pressure but not a lot of volume. He would like to stick with the same box. Would changing the tuning from 28 to 35 hz make a big difference? Do you think that facing it downward would make that much of a difference? If so how much space should there be between the box and the floor? Any other ideas besides get a di…
