SoundSplinter

First off, I'd like to express my most sincere thanks to denim and mrray13 for their support and assistance in getting this forum setup! The SSAudio community has shown itself to be friendly and informative, and I believe, the perfect home for SoundSplinter's online forum. That being said, allow me to tell you a little bit about myself. Name's Mike and I've always been a huge fan of music, both as a happy listener as well as a performer for my own personal enjoyment. I grew up on many years of formal keyboard/piano instruction but have since moved towards teaching myself the guitar as I have fallen in love with its portability and versatility. Having such a close co…

So i went to power up my sub i bought over 6 years ago and i see its not working. Jump on to email to send it in and i see on the site its outnof business. Sucks big time. I take it this cant be rebuilt by anyone. Any advice would help. Thanks.

I was in the middle of insulting the spam bot, and a mod deleted the thread. It was going to be epic in a stereotypical white boy way.

I bought an RLS-15 (sorry not an RLP-15) a few years ago with a Behringer EP-2500 with the best intentions, to build an IB manifold in my livingroom ceiling. It turns out I am not a good carpenter and chickened out on cutting a manifold opening in my ceiling, so my IB dreams never came true. I just can't seem to make anything pretty out of plywood and MDF. I've listed the amp and speaker on ebay and hope that the RLP-15 will find a deserving home with someone who really understands this driver's capabilities. I ended up just putting a Axiom 12" subwoofer cube in the livingroom. I was sad to hear that Soundsplinter is closing and wish the owners best of luck in their next …

Good mornin' to the good peeps of SSA! It has been a long time coming, with glimmers of hope springing to light only to be dashed by the heavy reality of a struggling economy and a primary producer that declared bankruptcy only a few short months after my largest purchase order to date. I had sincerely hoped that there would have been a revival in the production process, however I can now say with confidence that I will not be receiving my order for the RL-i8's and RL-p18's that I had placed so many moons ago. On the upside, a partial debt resolution is in the works, so I should be able to recoup a portion of the losses stemming from my final purchase order. However, gi…

Anyone with any experience with the sub? How do they sound, and how much power were you feeding it?

Looking for some subs for my car.I would like to have two 12" Soundsplinters.

Hello all, I bought a soundsplinter RL-p 15" probably 4 years ago? Anyway it was meant to go into a home audio project that never quite materialized and it sat on my work bench instead. During this time it seen cold temps as I live in canada and maybe have seen some things hit it I guess I dunno anyway the surround now has one small crack in it and another spot where there is a crack that is not all the way through the rubber yet. I am going to temp repair it with a silicone type glue from the back side of the surround but am interested in finding a new surround for this subwoofer. If any one can point me in the direction of one that would be much appreciated. I am slight…

SoundSplinter has been pretty quiet. Anything news worthy coming out as far as new product?

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.

Hi mike I am looking to see if you had any Rlp motors hanging around with triple .75" slugs? I am building a lms 10" and am hoping to make a matching driver but cannot find a motor to save my life I'd like to buy one if so. Please send me a message with contact info Here is my motor I am looking to match

I cant access the website for some reason to get a contact number. Im interested in purchasing a single RL-S motor. Please let me know contact info so I can give you guys a call.

How much power can these subs take daily in recommended sized ported enclosure with ideal electrical.

If any has a set of used 10s for sale, let me know. My nephew would love to put a pair in his truck, but is a little low on funds to pay for brand new ones.

I bought a 12" Soundsplinter RLP 5 years ago and just recently sold the car that I had it in. I was looking to go back to the drawing board so to speak, and possibly upgrade to an RLP 15 and noticed that it seemed everything was out of stock, and now the website is down. I have looked around at other drivers, but I am having a hard time finding a woofer that is as good as the one I have, that doesn't require 1,000 watts or more to jam, doesn't take a ton of space up, and is reasonably priced. Does Mike from Soundsplinter still cruise this board? I remember he helped me out tremendously when I purchased the woofer.

I got a new amp, and I think it's about to put a hurtin on my Rl-P12 D4.....It's a Clarion DPX11551 so at 2-ohm, it will be putting 1550RMS to the sub. It will be sealed in 1.25^ft. If the gain is all the way down, will I be OK? Previously ran with 500wrms, and it was a monster. Also, whats the highest I should cross the sub? Im running Dayton RS180-4 7" in the doors. Can I cross the sub at 100hz or am I asking for trouble? Thanks.

Well i have one rl-p 18 that is still pretty stiff even after a year of use. And today i just found another one at a pawn shop and picked it up for a really really low price. the coils are fine, both read 2.0, theres no rips or tears in the spider/surround. Now that i have 2 i really want to run them both in a sealed enclosure, but im worried they might play somewhat out of phase due to the one from the pawn shop having a looser suspension. Could this happen or am i just worrying too much? thanks!

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

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

I haven't been able to access the website for quite a while. Is there a greater problem, or is the website simply under construction?

according to the site i would go 3 cu ft tuend to 34hz..but i was wondering what some people have gone with and how it turned out..it will be 90% rap music

Allright so I just managed to get my hands on 3 more rli-8's so that brings me to a total of 5 now. Wanting to do a build with them but not sure what size boxes these subs like. I can't remember the size of the last box I had the 2 in but they sounded awesome. Ported tuned low and they will be powered by a sundown 3000d Thanks

hi im just looking for a sub that can go really low while beeing very loud at the same time. i considered either one 18 rl-p or 2 15 l7 as they cost about the same for me. space is ~ 10 cft.

Saw a post somewhere saying that RL-i8's were available, or soon to be available. Whats the story?

So will these be back in stock soon? just wondering I'm thinking about doing an install with 4 of them
