Yeah i think my height is exactly 15 inches, so hmm miight eliminate that for me.. I dunno this decisions is so hard.... I though i had it all figured out and differnt options just keep coming up, first i didnt mind spending 500 on subs, now it seems that it might be excessive because maybe for my needs i can find what i want for under 500 u know. Im just so confused, if i didnt have the stupid internet this wouldnt be a problem..lol..I also talked to DJ the owner of Audioque, and he is coming out with a new line thats supposed to get crazy loud and sound amazing, my guess is its a good competition for the Rl-P's for under 200 ...the line is called the SD's..But it will be out in like 2 or 3 weeks.. Im just going insane, i wish people around me actually had these setups so that i could listen too them, but no one around here does that i know of. I honestly just cant decide theres too many options...Mike's a great guy and helped me with like 15 different questions in one day, i just dont know what to do..IM honestly contemplating doing nothing at all, i.e. returning my headunit, selling the Orion 1200D that i still havnt even recieved, returning the 300 dollars of wires and accessories ive bought, because not being able to decide is annoying me soo much...SOMEONE HELP...

hey awesome then ill guess im just tune a little lower.. Anyway a couple of my buddies thinks that a single DD3515 or a single AudioqueHD15 will get louder than the RL-ps and sounds really good doing it...So they've got me kinda second guessing myself, i guess, let me know your thoughts... I need to order this stuff like monday so...Thanks again, especially haydenlake.....

That helped alot guys thanks...One last little question, which do u think is basically a better idea to do, tune a little lower, since i pretty much only listen to rap, and rap that gets loud and low, or keep the 32 and get a subsonic filter???Basically which would u do if u were in my exact situation and wanted why ive basically explained so far....is one safer than the other...Alright thanks again everyone...

u guys are awesome..why do u think i should tune it lower again..How will tuning it to 32hz not be as safe, can this be fixed with a subsonic filter??I dunno just throwing ideas out there..Thanks again all, would really like to know though because i want it to get as loud as possible, and being that its already really an sq sub, i really dont want to take away more of its ability to get loud...

much appreciated brother...I was trying to figure out how to do that calculation like all afternoon..(im a moron) but its good to know from now on, thanks again....

really 9 cu feet???that much that wouldl make me soo happy. i was all depressed and drunk all afternoon thinking i wouldnt have enough room for everything...and trying to figure out a dif setup...NO joke thats the specs i got being relatively conservative too...AWESOME...i thought i was gonna have to do like 1 15" or somen....M5 u made my day...NOW SOMEONE HELP ME WITH A DESIGN>....PLEASE

I think i might have to figure something else out besides on what i plannned but u guys are the experts so let me know...I just dont know if theres enough room...ALright here are the dimensions.. This is end to end, not allowing any room on any sides Height, 15 inches, would be more excpet for this weird little box hanging down by my 6x9's that i might be able to remove free up 2-5 inches or so... Smallest Width 31," but thats only for a a few inches by the seats and widens out to 35" Length leaving some room between sub and trunk opening maybe 2 or 3 inches is 33" let me know what guys think.. .Maybe for rooms sake i might want to consider a single sub setup(any ideas, that might get as loud) i didnt think it was so small...Thanks

Ill get on the info tommorow afternoon....Luckily i just found someone local to buidl the box he's only like 20 minutes from me so i will def save some money which is key.. thanks John

Happy B-Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey if anyone is from around CT, and could help me or build something for me that would be great,if not is there anyone who can draw me up a box design for 2 12" RL-P's about 1.75^3 feet per sub with 24^2 inches of port per sub tuned to 32 hz, if you need some more info let me know...Thanks again...

THIS IS THE LONGEST THREAD IVE EVER SEEN...I HAVE TO BE A PART OF THE POO!!!!!!!!!!woooo...

Yeah a while back when i bought my brahma i was looking into alot of RE products, even a multiple se setup, but i have decided on the RL-P's after atfter staying up till the wee hours of the morning finding out as much as i can about this sub the last like week and a half or so....I was so happy someone reccomended me too SS, i usually dont like the "brand name" subs theyere usually to quiet and too pricey for my taste and they only one i have owned was a w7 ....ANd i like supporting the real companys out there, the NO. BS i dont need some stupid lights on my woofer to make u buy it type chit..lol...Thanks for the suggest though 70 is a deal on those, and im still trying to figure out whats goin on with the box,(i live in CT but thanks for the offer) im even contemplating building one myself, but am very worried about that...

Someone told me to come check this place out if i wanted information on Soundsplinter subs, and they could help immensly with alot of things...

Ok ill be adding maybe 100-150 pound of weight which eqauls about .1-.15 in the quarter if i even cared... If i wanted it to be that much faster id be spending my money of a 50 trim turbo kit, and not my system But it is winter time and i have other priorities. .. SO now its a 13.8 quarter mile, which i can definately live with, and its quite fast already.....but it will be a slower...but ittl get crzy loud

Thats good to know... it makes it a little easier to send away 300 to someone i havnt met...lol...I hope everything works out O.K. though im pissed i couldnt get to the bank today because we got some snow and i got to be to work in 10 minutes, but he said he had plenty so im not too worried...Thanks again for everyones help Denim i will PMing...

It's good to hear that he is reputible around here, and that the amp is underated, sounds like it will work out nice..

Good to know...I talked to HCCAfan, and looks like ill be ordering one next week probably

PMED U HCCAfan..... On a side note does everyone really think this amp is enought to power these subs compared to them getting about 850 watts a piece??????

Kool i think ive made up my mind, but hey keep the oppinions rolling in if u got em.....I think they will be perfect for my setup though... Oh yeah to answer a preevious post i have none of those subs, all sold very quickly after using them, and I have absolutely no box building skills...lol

Thanks for ur help so far guys... BUt i can get the orion 2500d, around 50 bux cheaper refurbished than a new 1200D(whcih i was considering just figured from what ive read and the people i'd talked too wasnt enough power for the RL-ps to get really loud) maybe i am wrong and 1200 is enough for these puppies, and i know the 1200d is underrated but i figured the 2500d might leave more options open as well in the future u know??? WHat can HCCAFAN get it for? i found it for about 400 new...

WOW i didnt know it was that much less...Thank god for direct pricing lol.. My concern is not cost i was just stating at 550 i thought it was a little rough for something comparable to the RL-P but at 400 shipped that is a freakin deal...IM not saying anything bad about theses subs and im not trying to, IM just trying to get a feel for what they are similar too, thats all..SO thanks again for the info it is much appreciated, i switch systems up alot so im sure this will be a part of mine when its time to make some changes down THE road(i have some weird unconscious need to test all the great subs)..THanks again.. JOhn

Alright most likely this amp will be powering 2 12" SS RL-P's in a box between 1.75-2^3ft with 20-24^2in of port per sub...tuned to 34hz... Here are the amp choices..price range is under 360.... 1.)Orion 2500D(refurbished from Ikesound kinda worried about that) will be used @ 2 ohms 2.)MA Audio HK-1398 which is 600x2 @ 1ohm stereo, and 1600x1@ 2ohm mono... 3.)Hifonics BX1605D which is 1600@1ohm. All opinions are welcome, please give em to me...Also you guys all seem real knowledgeable so any other Options or Ideas for amps that you might have are more than welcome!!!! THANKS EVERYONE.....

thanks guys, after talking to mike, he too agrees that the 12's will prob be best for my applications, and they will be ported so hopefully i will be happy, Now guys go to the amp section if you can and tell me your oppinions on the different amps i could possible be using..Thanks all, nice to be in a forum thats not filled with dumbass kids who think they can play god behind there computer screens....I like this place

thanks guys....that doesnt sound promising

I figured it was beastly enought to almost be a comparison.. Wow i didnt know it was that close... I mean one 15 RL-p is half the price, thats why i compared the two, because they would be the price of 1 mag...I figured one mag could compared to One RL-S, who knows either way, youve definatley helped me make up my mind...Thanks... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The RL-P is more than half the price of one Magnum. They are cheaper than the Magnums, but not by 100%. The Mag was never intended to be a "budget" driver. It was designed and built with a no compromises attitude and that's just what it does. Personally, I think the driver is a bargain. I am biased of course, but that is not without merit. The Mag made it's way into my heart by shoving aside a Brahma, XXX, and W7. All damn fine drivers in their own respect. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It beat all those woofer IUO?? WOW ive owned all of em, except the XXX, and thats impressive, but it should be for the price...I might be wrong, but the 15 RL-p is 279 and the Magnum listed on there website MSRP is 549..so yeah that is half, but i did notice the direct pricing thing on there site so it is probably less, Im just stating what it says on both websites....Either way The two 12's i heard did amaze me just not for the price of them...I would love to know more of your thoughts on these subs though, how u have it setup, what music u listen too(im guessing u have them because of ur bias and all) but if not i would still like to know more...How did they beat out the brahma and others in your oppinion? THanks again man i appreciate all the info. Ive owned 1 12 brahma loved it but still wanted louder, 1 12" IDMAX def wasnt loud enough...! 18" Beyond Audio Inhuman loud enough, just not tight enough..lol, and 1 12" W7, and that just sucked for the MOney IMO...let me know..
