    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;).....

    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.

    Hey, few questions. First, I currently have my RL-P 15 in a 2cuft box sealed. Pushing it with a SoundStream Reference 500sx, which does 500wrms, though I doubt I am near that because my electrical system sucks lol. The sub is currently in my Mazda 626. I am shopping around for a hatch at the moment. My first question would be what would I hypothesize would happen as far as changes in performance if I brought the volume down to 1.75 or 1.5? It for some reason seams the sub's power handling isn't as high as I was expecting and I wonder if that has something to do with the box. This leads to my second quesiton. Second question is about knowing when the sub is exceeding its l…

    Well, after getting my new TC9+, I've been thinking it over, and I think I'm going to use it for my home system. As far as I can tell, this sub is pretty damn close to a RL-p in an electrical sense, but I'll be getting the T/S params from the seller soon to confirm that. What would be some recommendations for a sealed enclosure with a mid-Q alignment for something like this - power is probably going to be around 750-800W, maybe a kW if I can afford a rack amp to do that. Thanks.

    well at 1st i was going to go with one JL 12W6v2 in a ported ~1.5^3ft enclosure.(regular box,mdf, tuned 27-28 Hz) powered by an ed nine.1. then i came across the fiberglass post down at ca.com and thought about putting two 10's in a custom fiberglass enclosure in each of the wheel wells. this is where the rl-i 10s come in. would two 10" rl-i's in a sealed fiber glass enclosure with about ~1^3ft of space for each sub and both powered by one ed nine.1 amp be enough to compare it to or even outperform the (1) 12w6v2 i was speakin of earlier? im goin for an sq setup but i still want some spl. i know that the w6 do well in these categories but now i am interested in the rl-i s…

  9. Hello everyone! Finally snapped some shots of our RL-i8 prototype driver. The finished product will carry a small centered logo. This driver will be one of the beefiest "little" eights out there, optimized for tiny enclosures driven with 175-500wrms. As we get closer to the final launch date for this 8 incher, more information will become available.. but for now, without further ado, the new RL-i series 8" driver from SoundSplinter :ph34r: .. B)

    http://www.soundsplinter.com/images/videos...-RLi10-porn.WMV The above video was taken in low light with a camera I'm unfamiliar with. Hopefully in the future I will master that damn camera and get some clearer pictures up here. The woofer in the picture is running in a sealed enclosure with another RL-i10, off of a bridged Pioneer amplifier feeding each woofer approximately 190 wrms. The volume on the Pioneer head unit during the video is at approximately 50% - I'll get something more impressive up here sometime soon Well now that we've been up and running solid for a few months, I know there's others out there with these bad boys. So.. Where the hell are the pic's?…

    I'm thinking of doing two 15" RL-p because of the low box requirement. My question is, how much does the basket/magnet assembly displace, per woofer?? Also, is 1800 RMS enough for a pair of these? Or should I step it up to 2500 or so? Also #2, is 3 4" Aeroports enough port area for this install? I'm thinking I will have major port noise unless I step up to 4 4" Aeroports. Is 3 okay?? Thankyou!! Alex

    Would the 12" Rl-p perform well infinite baffle? It has a nice low Fs, but the Qts looks a bit low. But, hey, since these model up horribly in box programs, I figure it'd be better to ask than assume/try to model :4123357f3da0f6e125a54:

    Well, I'm seriously considering picking up a Soundsplinter 12" RL-p to play around with some. I want to stick with using a sealed box, but after glancing at the sub's specs I'm a little worried that it's sealed performance may not be up-to-par (low Qts and high EBP). When I used a Qtc calc to figure out box size required for a Qtc of ~.707, it said I needed a 0.291cuft enclosure, and gives me an F3 of 79.93hz It's like it specs out as a midbass on steroids. Either that or the calculator is WAAAYYYY off. So, what sealed box size would give satisfactory LFE and overall performance??

    I have some questions about the RL-I 10" Sound Splinter sub. Right now, I'm running a RF 601S that is rated at 300x2 at 2 ohms and 600x1 bridged at 4ohms. It has a maximum peak of 900x2 at 2ohms or 1800 rated watts bridged at 4ohms. Can this sub handle that peak? Cause that's how I blew my Cerwin Vega Vega10D4s. I want to purchase two of these subs, and hook them up to the RF amp. Got a box, and just want to clear this up. Thanks for the help!

Always being one to give anything a look , I decided to investigate . I was plesantly suprised at what I found . What seems to be a quality sub at an even better price . So that is why I came here . I am thinking of going with either 2 or 4 15's . I will be powering them with a Directed 2400D . I am most interested in the RL-p 15's . Does anyone know if my 2400D would run 4 of these monsters .

    I was loading the parameters into WinISD and noticed that there is no SPL parameter. Is it safe to just use the default one provided by WinISD? (I got 87.59 for a 12" RL-p) Also the paramenters on the site do not distinguish between 2 and 4 ohm subs. I don't think that the RE for both is 3.8. I have heard that these subs are very compairable to the Brahma. Compairing the curve on WinISD, inputing the same box size and freq., there is a big difference in performance, possibly due to the parameters I put in. Anyone got a flash light? Hey Mike, since these are a DIY sub, it might be kinda neat to have the drivers for WinISD, LEAP, BBP and other popular programs downloadable …
