SoundSplinter

I'm going to be purchasing Sound Splinter RLP's here soon, to upgrade from my current 2 12" Kicker CVR's (03 model) and this time around, I'm looking for 100% more SQ while still getting fairly loud. I heard great things about these subs and how great their SQ is, which got me wanting to check these out. My amp is a JBL GTO1201.1, 787rms @ 4ohms and 1114rms @ 2ohms. If I went with 2 12's, I wouldn't be able to power them properly, but if I got a single 15" I think 1114rms would be perfect. I'm going for a sealed enclosure for either sub (I don't mind ported, I'm just a bigger fan of sealed) Now, after switching from 2 SPL subs, I'm afraid I'd be disappointed in output wit…

Got it all wired up and in the box about a week ago, now just waiting on my amp which should be here tomorrow.

Hey Mike, Just like the title says, the ring has left me unsatisfied....hows the foursome coming along? You know the two supremes setup with the strapped 4k watts that your bud was working on? Any chance of him posting a review?

My rl-p which i got wednesday has suffered a nice wound to the cone and surround thanks to a friend that was mounting it in the box while i wired some stuff. I don't want to make him pay for a new sub but he will if he has to. Any help is appreciated.

hey Just curious how business has been recently. I'm still rockin my double 15" rl-p subs though i think its time to put them in a ported enclosure. They've been running hard in a sealed box for over a year. Wasn't too sure if they'd last this long but i'm still happy with them after all this time. Before SS, i used an adire audio brahma that i loved, but some of you may know, adire went tits up a ways back. Just curious how things at SS have been going, and if my subs ever need to be reconed or something, i can have it done. There are so many people makin subs now days its hard to pick one and beleive your choice was a sound one. I picked adire audio from recomm…

Alright, I'm pretty blown away by this. A member on another forum (a very new member) said that he saw a SS sub on Pimp My Ride. Here's the link to the post: Help With A SoundSplinter Sub

an 18" RL-P i was gonna go with a beefy 12" but i said to myself, what the heck....ill just go bigger! i need to save up the money first, then I will pull the trigger. Its going into a 4 cube sealed box, powered off an MD1D giving it oh, around 6-700w. (let me know if any of this sounds like it will not be good) couple of questions: 1. Can i have it with the laser etched logo + sig (cuz i heard that the laser thing is for a small run) 2. going from a 1.7 cube tuned to 34 hz 12" to a 4 cube sealed 18" will i be missing low end even if it is a 18" sub 3. will 6-700w be enough to get the sub moving good? thanks! woot! im glad its gonna fit.

Hi guys, just looked over your site and saw you shipped internationally. Wondering if you guys are able to ship to Australia, and if so, what would a (rough) estimation be to ship a Rlp-18 to Melbourne per driver? Cheers.

just came across a mint old school "signiture" 12". I didn't need it, but I've always wanted and the price was good. Now I have no plans to use it anytime soon. So I wanted to see if I can find an SS box for the RL-p 12" from someone. I need/want all the packing in it as well please. Let me know or if mike you read this and you can let me know what it would cost to ship me one. Thx, Vic.

The thread title asks the question. How accurate are they? Are there manufacturing allowances/tolerances? I have heard that most published T/S specs can be off by as much as +/- 20%, is this so for Soundsplinter? I want to know mainly because I want to make a maximally flat (.707 Q) sealed enclosure for my RL-p15 d2 and no matter how I run the numbers, I end up with ~1.75 cubes (I am excited about being able to use such a small box). I know the website says 3 cubes, but is this a low Q design by intention?

as the title says just curious how long the sub takes to ship orded it last night

Hm... Looking at your 18, it says it will do well in a sealed enclosure ~4 cubic feet? That'd be awesome, thats about the amount of space I have to work with. Worth doing or should I just go with a smaller sub? Also, what are the power possibilities? I have a Kicker ZX1500.1... not sure if I should get a 2 or 4 ohm driver, impedances own me.

just thought some of you, maybe even mike would like to respond to the 3rd post in this thread? http://forum.elitecaraudio.com/showthread....threadid=123575

they came today!WOW. they are so fu(king loud!!!! i don't think they hit the lows as good as my hybrid(and by lows i mean sub 30Hz)but i think the box plays the biggest part in that...1-hybrid=30Hzw/60in port, 2-RL-p's=34Hzw/70in port. but they make up for it in how much louder they are above 30!!!i gotta go have this metered now! i got the box in there and put the subs in...and when i test fit the box the other day i never thought to try to shut the hatch well i had to trim the box a little...well you'll see;).....

Just a quik question. Would you guys recommend a single rl-p ported or 2 rl-ps sealed. I have limited trunk space in the back of a eclipse. I I go with one sub I have to get a new amp. I currently have a Mark Antony running 2 E12ks 2nd generation at about 1400+ watts@1ohm sealed. The 2 rl-ps, if I can get another dual 2ohm would put the amp over 2000 watts. There reason I am asking is because i want to know is it sensible to run 2400 watts for a car that will probably only see a couple of local comps.

Mike, I want to thank you for the two new replacement drivers you sent me. Here is the update on the rebuilds.... BTW for those who don't know what happened. My wife blew out my last two drivers due to switiching to a Jurassic Park movie with the gains still set at full. She doesn't mess with the settings on the equipment. I am running a QSC 1450 amp to each driver. A 1450 watt amp is too much power for these drivers if not monitored by you! I over amp for low bass at low volumes for my music. I divided the cabinet with heavy partitioning and made two cabinets in one reducing the cubes down to about 2.2 per cabinet, each having their own driver and two passives. Eac…

how many subs were ordered/made from the D2 group buy? i just wondering, see how rare my sub is.

i took my box out of the car for a while... can i put just 100 watts to the rlp 15 and will that be ok? or will i under power it and distort it and blow it up? its tuned to 28htz by the way in a 3.5 cube box

I cant wait for the guy who wants to buy my bahn to get his money already so i can get my hands in 2 rl-p 15's, i dream about them every night. WAITING SUCKS!!!!

Hi all, I am in the market for a system and have decided on Soundsplinter...Here's is my dilemma: Car will be 2002 Honda Accord Coupe, and here is what I have planned: HU: Pioneer DEHP9600 $400 Front: Rainbow SLC Kickbass 6.5" Comp 280 Rear Fill: some decent 6x9 100 4-ch amp: PG Xenon 100x4 (100wx4 @ 4 ohm) 300 Sub amp: Kicker zx750.1 300 Sub: Soundsplinter I was gonna go with 1 12" Rl-p w~ 750W after reading many positive reviews from caraudio forum. I want clean, tight, distortion free bass with decent output (used to have a…

like it says just bought an rl-p 15. one question how does this sub compare to an rfr3115

Finally got the enclosures finished and in the house. Each box is 10^3 @19Hz with a single 8" port and RL-P 15. Port fires up and subs are down firing. I'm about 50/50 HT and music, so I think the higher tune is a good balance. So far I've been VERY impressed and the subs are only getting 400watts each off a Hypex plate amp. Couldn't imagine what 800+ to each one would sound like. Music has punch, hits low, and gets plenty loud with excellent SQ. Has no trouble keeping up with 6 Klipsch Legends. Also got to demo the depth charge scene from U-571 tonight. Neighbor was over and his jaw hit the floor. Much louder than the 4 Tempests they replaced. GF said the whole house fe…

ok folks...i just got my rlp 15 in today...daym, daym, daym she's so good looking...without a logo by the way, the cone, the basket, the rear end, sssso sexy!!! anyways, for now i'm gonna break her in and pop the cherry with my 311d in a sealed box which will give her about 350 rms at 2 ohm mono... i'm gonna be building my ported box over spring break next week...can't wait... just wanted to say she's so sexy!!!

will SS ever dip into amplifers or other products?>
