  1. The following clip is of an RL-i12 driver inside a 1.2 cu ft net volume sealed enclosure, driven by a 500watt Bash plate amp. Song being played is a rap run known as "Ain't Nothin' But a G-Thang" by Snoop 'n Dr. Dre. Nearly went deaf recording this video (note to self, wear ear plugs when you're sitting right next to a loud woofer ). Just figured I'd throw this one up here to dissuade the fears of those who might think the RL-p is the only worthy contender from SoundSplinter Broadband .avi Clip with sound: ~9 MB Dialup .wmv Clip with NO sound: ~1 MB *Note: I'd suggest right-clicking the boradband link and 'Saving Target As..' since playing the file directly with Windo…

    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

    a buddy of mine just ordered 2 rl-s 12's a few days ago after i showed them to him.... he asked me what he should have the builder tune the box to....i really have no clue where these subs perform best at. he was thinking 6 cubes at 32 because the recommended airspace per sub was 3cu/ft on the website....however the tuning was significantly lower at 24.... what would you guys recommend him having the box tuned to? he just wants to sound as clean and clear on most rap music as well as music with lots of lows...not really looking for being loud as hell... so what do you guys think? any info appreciated thanks

    I need subwoofer witch has more than good sound, tight, musically, not just same sound putting out. So i need a HIFI subwoofer I were looking 80litres sealed box with Linkwitz Transform circuit and Linkwitz Riley 24db/okt lowpass filter. -6db point to 15hz. My amplifier works better at 4ohms so 15d2 could be better than 15d4? I got 2x1200w/4ohms or 2x 650w/8ohms. I only use channel A on my amplifier, so i nees 4 ohms to channel A. e: Is that ok? I just want good sound, soundpressure level doesn't matter, 100db is enough for me. On the attachment is my old subwoofer parameters. re 3,656 and bl 22 on my installation.

    Dear all, This is the first time, am sending a post so this is similar to a test. I am interested in buying the lil' monsters RL-i8s. Would it be possible to wire 1 Dual 4 ohm to a Single 4 ohm woofer? To make like a 3 ohm load or something I know it is stupid since the specs aren't the same for the two versions but you never know. Thanx a lot guyz. Kelvin

    I would like to get a sub to replace my Stereo Integrity 15". I love the sub, but it is a little too low for my taste, i am more into rock. so the questions is how would 2 rl-p 12" compare to my 15" D2? sq wise and loudness wise. I am really liking the price and really considering buying 2 if stack up to what i want. thanks, Travis

    Well let me explain my story. I had ordered SS RL-p 12s when they had first came out. I'm pretty sure it was Mike's first batch. Old cones. After a week of use, One subs surround started to come straight off of the cone. I had told mike about it and surely enough he replaced it with the next batch, the new aluminum cones no logo. Mike even paid for return shipping! Thanks Mike. Well surely enough about 6 months pass by, not any problems really. The aluminum cone's color has faded from pointing up in my hatch, access sunlight I'm guessing. Pretty ugly. And My Old cone 12 well, you guessed it, starts to come off the cone. It's been around 6+ months now, I've just been runni…

    So I am looking for a new vehicle but I am still wanting to do the console for the 8s. Need a few opinions. I have about 1.3 cu.ft. with room for 1, 2, or 3 of them. I also have 2 amp that I can use. 275 HCCA 75x2@4 300@4 150x2@2 600@2 300x2@1 1200@1 [email protected] or the 600D 250@4 400@2 600@1 So power isnt a problem. But my question is 1.3 gross with 2 of the 8s one rear fire the other downfire. Ported or sealed? I have the room for both. If I go sealed I will probly make smaller chambers in the console, ported dont really know with a box that big. I guess that I could just make it smaller or make an internal chamber like the sealed would be. Man am I rambling. Giv…

    After having the sub broken in for a little more than a week, I finally decided to do this thing. Packaging/build quality: Came in a white box labeled 29lbs. The sub seemed to be pretty secure in the box, and they gave me two soundsplinter stickers, one of which will be the only sticker I'll ever sport on my car. The sub looks awesome. I couldn't see any part of it that worried me. There's plenty of glueing on it, but that can't hurt. Equipment: 1 kenwood HU set of DEI Viper 650.2 components powered by 1 DEI Viper 400.2 amp (i'm actually using an eD nine.2 temporarily) 1 SoundSplinter RL-P12 d4 powered by 1 Lanzar Vibe 1200d @ 2ohm (748wrms) ~1.00 cu ft gross box (~0.75…

    I thought it'd be a good idea to create a central thread for the plans that we are making for the demo driver. Something that we can reference during and post-testing, something that we can reference for the many reviews to come. I 'll have to get Kent in here soon, as He'll have hands on it next week. As I'd told Mike, I should have plenty of power and space availible in-car, errr esuvee. I'll test mostly in car, as that's easiest for me (where the equipment supports it), though I may still try it in home (if I can source an amp by then). Insofar, for power I'm working with a pair of Orion 1200D's strapped. Nominal power of 2400wrms @ 2ohm. I don't have any plans to use…
