I am currently running a eD 15a powered by a PG 1200.1 in a 1.5 ft^3 sealed box. I was wondering how the SQ of the RL-P compared to that of the 15a (both in the 15" version and in the recommend sealed box). I know that SQ varies from my ears to your ears, but I just wondering what people think that have listened to both. I enjoy the 15a but I think that I can get something better. I know that both subs share a similar motors, but the coils and suspension on the RL-P are an suposedly an improvement over the 15a. I do not want to spend my hard earned money on a sub that will not be that much of an improvement. Thanks in advance, Matt

hey guys i intend on building 2 boxes one sealed @ 14x14x17.5 (4sure measurments) and one ported 30Wx13.5Hx14.5D giving me 2cf @ 34Hz (sound good) and is there a difference bewteen the slot port and the round port with this sub

Just got my 15's & building the enclosure. It's going to be a single ported box with both 15's mounted in it. Question I have is should the drivers be completely cutoff from one another via internal divider, partially divided or wide open inside? The enclosure will be either 3/4 or 1" mdf, close to 7 cubic ft if divided, and 1 slot port on each side if divided. If open would I need to cut down on size & could I use 1 slot port? I've never run duals so kind of lost on this. Appreciate any info.

Anyone with experience with the rl-p 15 have a suggestion on what enclosure would be ideal? I plan to run the sub in series at 4 ohm (or as close as it wires to) at a clean 1k rms. I was thinking of going with the 3.5 cubes the site recommends tuned at 30 Hz.

whats the max box size for the 10? i was thinking 1-1.5@30 is it the same for the 8?

Hey, i am thinking about getting an RL-P 15, and i don't want to lose too much trunk, so i am looking at 2.5 net ported around 32Hz. Since the port only has to be around 12in long, could i get by with one 4" flared precision port in a trunk car? If port noise is the only issue, my trunk is sealed off pretty well (dodge intrepid). Thanks!

Thinking of going with 4 SS 10"s with my Sundown3000. I'm thinking of using 4 4" aero's with them. This is going to be my daily tuned to about 34Hz.

RL-P showed up today....its perdy What is the displacement on this guy, gonna build a box for it in the next week or two.

i was wonderin if this will work.. now i dont know the demenstions or tuning.. or how i would tune it.. can anyone help me out.. the size i would like it to be is the size of the floor in a pt cruiser.. and the height of the subs.. will anyone be able to tell me how wide and long the port should be.. like how long should the cuts be.. and all that.. http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/gallery...e.php?pos=-1994 and the measurements of the floor that i can use is 40" wide 22" deep..

Would a Hifonics BX1205D be good for a pair of Rl-i8's. I think theyll get about 500 watts each at 1 ohm because theyre overrated. Tell me what you think of this combo or other amp choices?

Picking up some 12" LMS 4K's (have one now, the other should be along this week). Just wondering I know they seem to use the same style motor/basket/surround and svc LMS 3 ohm coil. Looking for some input on real world application from someone who has done some testing in differnt alignment boxes with this style driver.

I'm on the list for a pr. of Rli-8's and was looking at a US amps XT4000D xTERMINATOR to power them. I'm gonna have to ditch my Memphis 500.1 but it was only temporary anyhow. Whaddaya think. It can be had for 250 on fleabay. My pockets aren't much deeper than that either. Thoughts...........?

Hey whats up guys, i'm new to these forums. I've noticed that the soundsplinter website has gone slightly inactive and i was wondering if there is anything going on with the company right now. I've put in an order in for 2 12" dual 2 Rl-p subwoofers and it was said that i would recieve confirmation within 1 buisness day. This is all fine but i've realized that i require dual 4's rather than dual 2's. When i went back to the website, it seemed that i was out of luck that the dual 4 versions of the subwoofers are out of stock . I was hoping i could cancel my order for the dual 2s and get a confirmation on the dual 4s but i have not recieved an email yet for my first order, …

I got a pair of these bad boys and since I'm limited on the small lip usage of the subs, I'm wondering what everyone else used to secure them to the enclosure. I thought about using cap screws and spiked bolts but may not work due to the shortness of the lip. I'm in the middle of revamping mine.

can anyone give me ideas on a box design for a rlp 18. its for a suv , sub up and port back. i have room for around 7cubes. want it tuned low. or if anyone has suggestions on how they are running their 18's. port area,freq,power or anything would help

just wondering the xmax. im comparing to a treo tsi and tsx. thanks

Any idea when the dual 4 ohm 8's will be available for sale again??

The box is a 1.25 cu ft ported to 30Hz with some 2.5" PVC. Just playing around with box sizes and sealed vs. ported. These lil things really get to moving. Sorry the sound quality of the video isnt very good, I was using my lil sis' cheap digital camera. vid

i'm getting my car in a coulpe a months and i'm getting 2 rlp12" and will a Lanzar Max Pro 2400 watts amp be good or should i get a better amp and will the speakers handle a lanzar max pro 4000 watt amp need help

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.

Alright I will be ordering my Rl-p 12 shortly and I want to start figuring out the rest of my setup and get it in the mail. I have been looking around at amps but I'm not good when it comes down to just deciding on one. I know to look for 500-800 watts at 2 ohms but im not sure really sure what to lay my money down for (which i dont have a lot of) so I'd like it to be the most bang for my buck. What amp should I pursue? I would like specific models too what do you use and does it work good for you? Thanks

Little run down, in the last 5-6 years it was 1 JL 8w3v whatever 1 JL 8w7 2 eD 10o's 1 12-claw magnum 1 12 type R (just to try and torture) 1 12 ascendant av 1 12 Mag 1 Q12 1 Q15 I know I'm forgetting a few that I've owned, installed and sold But it seems I've come full circle, back to 8(s) I'm looking at either 2-sealed rl-i8 or 1 ported The vehicle is a 2002 ford F-150 super crew and I want my seats back in it and I know I can stick 8's under the seat. The AMP is an older model Memphis Belle, that will deliver 1100@1ohm or 600@2ohm or 400@4ohm. So the question is, is SS the way to go and is it 1 ported or 2 sealed for me? I'm not sure exactly how much room is under my …

OK... Buddy wanted to buy my RLp-12 and 'try it out' before paying up. He neglected to adjust gains and crossover on his amp, much to my chagrin, and burned up the voice coils. Apparently his head unit did not have a sub RCA pre-out, so he used the rear RCA pre-outs, which was sending full range to the subwoofer amp. Additionally the gains were turned all the way up (he has some Audiobahn 1000w RMS amp) and the crossover was wide open. So, after connecting the amp he popped in a CD and proceeded to send a full range signal at max gain the RLp-12 for about 30-45 seconds. The result: burned voice coils and the sub seized What are my options to get this guy repaired? M…

since most people i've seen are running this woofer in a ported setup, i was wondering how an rl-i8 would performed in a sealed box with about 450wrms running to it. also how big of a box would this need, if it were to go into a hatchback? thanks axel

i'm trying to get a QTC of .707 out of my Rl-is in my new box. So far these are my calculations. .267 = QTS 44.74L = 1.57cf = Vas Vb = 1.57/((.707/.267)^2-1) Vb = 1.57/(6.011) VB = .26 So is this the net volume i should be shooting for for 1 rl-i? I want to port it i haven't grasped the complete understanding of QTC but realize .707 is ideal and depending on which way i go i will gain some low end lose wattage handling, or gain handling of power and get some peakiness. But i don't understand if a port and the tuning will affect the QTC or if i could go for a higher QTC and a lower tuning to gain the same type of output. THanks for your time ~Mike
