SoundSplinter

Hey is there anyone in Michigan (west Michigan) or anywhere in the Midwest, looking for sound splinter subs. I am only looking for one so I wouldn't mind adding another for someone to get the discount and shipping. I am looking for two doesn't matter to me which one I get first, either an rl-i8 or rl-p12. Thank Andy

Hey. I just ordered an rl-p 15 and now I need a little help designing a ported box for it. After talking with Mike, I have decided to go with 2.5 cu ft net tuned to 28 hz. I would like the box to be about 30x17 1/2x??? Also, mike recommended somewhere between 35 and 40 sq inches of port area. Thanks. Eric

I have a pair of rli-10's on the way to me. (Thanks Mike) They will be going into two separate boxes with these dimensions. Mounting Depth - 6" width - 20" height - 14" bottom depth - 8" top depth - 5" .66 cubic ft. interior air space per box They are going into a regular cap truck, one behind driver seat, and one behind passenger seat. My HU is a Pioneer deh-780. I also have a US amp xt2000d on the way. I listen to rock, country, and rap. I'm still learning about this car audio stuff. Should I put any poly-fill in the boxes before installing the drivers. Do they need anything special as far as break-in? What should I do with the amp as far as set-up? (gain, fre…

I can get an Alpine MRD-M1005 for around $200. It does 1000w RMS x1 @ ohms. Would this be too much power for it? Thanks, Logan

What are the opinions of forum members who have used them? Enclosure size? Ported or sealed enclosure? What is optimum amperage for each subwoofer? >>>> Anyone have one to sell to me? <<<<

Hey I was just wondering the amount of power that can be put through a 12 RL-P as compare with a 15 RL-P? I want to distinguish if I should get 2 12s or 1 15. I am looking for a system that has great spl but at the same time has good sq! Thanks for the help. Mike

I am aware that the SS rl-s utilizes TCsounds LMS system, but I am not sure if the Rl-p series does as well. Anybody have the knowledge here?

I was wanting to know how much air space would be ideal for me, as I will be putting my newly aquired SS Rl-p in a ported, down-firing box behind the third row seating in a 2007 Chevy Tahoe. I will be powering it with an Alpine PDX 1000.1 mono amp. I listen to 95% Hip-Hop/Rap music and I am real picky with my bass...... I know this will sound so broad and vague that it is not even worth saying...... but I like HARD HITTING bass, but there is a DEFINITE fine line between hard hitting "Quality" bass that is smooth and blends into the music nicely and at the same time can also come out and shake your head when it is called upon...... And then there is the Hard Hard Hard …

I just bought a 12" RL-s and need to begin to think about the box. I'm stuck between going sealed or ported. I think I want to do ported but if sealed is best for this driver, then so be it. If I do go ported, I'm thinking right now trying 3cuft tuned to 28hz and if I go sealed, I'm thinking around 2.5 cuft or so (going by SS recommendations). Is 28hz too low or should I go higher? Another question I can throw in here is for power. Single 3 ohm kinda sucks but can be dealt with. Right now I'm thinking about buying a JBL BPX1100.1 (http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_10482_JBL+BPX1100.1.html) or an older Orion 2500D which I think does somewhere around 1200rms at 3ohms. An…

I am wanting to buy a couple of RL-i10's I will be using a Phoenix Gold zx400ti amp here are the specs for the amp: Into 4 ohms Stereo @ 12.5 Vdc (IASCA/USAC) 37 x 2 Into 4 ohms Stereo @ 14.4 Vdc 100 x 2 Into 2 ohms Stereo @ 14.4 Vdc 200 x 2 Into 4 ohms Bridged @ 14.4 Vdc 400 x 1 Minimum Speaker Load, Bridged 2 ohms Minimum Speaker Load, Stereo 1 ohm Do you think that this amp will be able to supply the subs enough power to sound great?? thanks for the help.

Hey all i am having trouble ordering an rl-p 15 from soundsplinters site. Some unkown error comes up when i try to register to buy this product. is there anyway else to buy one of these but rattling subs??? any and all help will be great.

I am going to be getting an rl-s 12 ... and i need to get an enclosure for it ... i was previously running a rd alpha 15 and im switching over to the rl-s ... i have an 01 focus hatchback and i was thinking a 4 cubed box upfiring now ... amplifier is the issue ... the single 3 ohm limits the amplifier selection so what are most of the people running to it? thanks guys Mike

i have heard many good things about the rl-i's and rl-p's. they both have awesome sq for eg. my question is out of the two series, which one has better sq? also is there any word on and rlp 10" coming any time soon? right now i have my eyes set on the rl-i 10" but i want to keep my options open.

of couse i get a new car, and OF COURSE i have yet another car that troubles me with the sytem. 05 mustang.....i need 2.5-3.5 cubes according to the specs here that Mike has. if ANYONE has seen ANYONE with something NEAR 3 cubes in an 05 mustang please give me some info on them so i can track em down and shoot the chit and get me a box plan! ported of course

I am wanting to upgrade from my 2 13kv2's sealed and am torn between the 13Ov2 and the RL-p's. I have a 9.1 available to push 600 watts per sub and am trying to decide if the price difference between the 13Ov2 and the RL-p's are worth it. I an get a pair of 13Ov2's for $350 shipped and the RL-p's for about $500 shipped. Man I can't decide AS

Are these available in Dual 2-Ohm coils? If so, I'm going to be ordering one instantly. If not, I'm gonna need to find something else

my friend bought a sound splinter rl-i 10 the other day from someone. and now he is going to order another one from sound splinter so he can have a pair of those subs. we are going to build a ported box. so how many cu ft is good for a pair of rl-i 10s in a ported box?

hehe and i found that if you send 2kw witha 4 ohm series resistance into an rlp in a .6 cubic ft sealed box, it wont overexhurt (sp?) meaning its possible to send 2kw into this driver? or will it reach its thermal limits by then? i found this very interesting its the yellow line... the gray line is for my next box

How much for a recone kit for a 18" RL-P subwoofer, Dual 2ohms, shipped to 40214? Please let me know soon. Thanks.

As i stated i need help building a truck box for a regular cab pickem up truck, its a fullsize c1500 chevy, I bought the rli 10 inch driver only 1 of them , and i need help on how big my box should i was told , as long as i can get, and about 1 foot high , and 7 inchs mounting depth, i was wonder if that was right, let me know on what u think, im trying to get the best sound outa this driver , Thank you for your info

Hey, i am looking to get a 12" RL-P, and the site has been down for awhile. Does anyone have the T/s for the one with the black cone? I think it is a 2005 model. Thanks! Should 1.65 net ported at around 33 be good?

Is 81 square inches of port area enough for an RL-p 18? The box I'm thinking of building is sub up ports back(2, with bent-mdf-flares) in the trunk of a 94 cadillac deville. Net volume is about 6.4ft^3 tuned to just under 27hz. The two ports are 3x13.5 and then flared exit. It will only be seeing about 600-700 watts (Crossfire 1502 bridged)

hi everyone i am a new to sound splinter i am buying 4 10 inch rli in the next week i am wondering if i should do down fired sealed in my prelude or port them and tune the to something low like 25-30hz trying for as much spl and loudness as possible i was going to get 2 rlp-12s but decided on 4 8 inch rli because i had done a install on the 8 rli and was very impressed so i decided to go bigger i am thinking 1200-1500 watt mono class d?

I'm looking to get a Rl-p 18 by the end of the summer and wanted to know what is the recommended/optimum port area suggested for it...figured I'd go ahead and play with some box designs

i was checking out some of the graphs ppl have come up with for their rl-p's in different enclosures. the bigger enclosures seem to have a greater impedance rise. so does that mean if u go with a 3 cube enclosure at like 32 hz with a smaller rise then say a 3.5 cube enclosure at 35 the woofer will be seeing more power throughout the entire frequency range? i always thought that larger enclosures ment deaper and louder bass? kinda new to most of this technical stuff. if anyone could help clear this up it would be greatly appreciated.
