if you don't mind lightning audio, like i posted earlier, the shop i work at is clearing out his LA line. 50% off all LA gear. so i can get ya a pretty decent sub for under $200 easily (+ shipping of course) i'll do a lil more research as to what he has and how much... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

damn nick,....lol.. good morning ed wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

yeah...but when u slug a ported box to take away volume, u raise tuning.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

nick...info on the subs....NOW!!! and,ummmm... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

the projected box u have lined up will work fine. especially since u like the low lows... the box mike suggested would be sweet too..tighten up the response a bit.. hopefully,u'll get the output ur after... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

done.. and nice work scott! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

soooooooo... which 15's are we talking about? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

a pair of 15's justin... or something similiar... strokers??? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

u really wanna build a box outa plexi material, use lexan. IIRC, at 1/2" it is small caliber bullet proof. at 3/4", it can stop most hi-powered rifles. we use 1/2 and 3/4 at work around our machines to keep ourselves safe in case of an explosion. lol....and it is glass clear. probably a bit more expensive, but it'll add integrity to the enclosure...and protection...lol wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

good morning wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

it gets very,very loud, but not insanely loud? well, it isn't made to get insanely loud. it's made to sound really good while getting very loud. if you wanted insanely loud, you should have bought a different sub. and IME, i can tell you this. the rl-p will handle 1200wrms all day if unclipped and in the proper enclosure. but u have to remember, it's only rated for 500wrms. so even the 750 wrms mine gets daily is over the recommended power. and like everyone has mentioned, you have a couple of things that need to be attended to. fix your wiring, and help your amp out. if your after more output, go larger sealed or like everyone has mentioned, go ported. and since your after spl, i'd suggest 2ft^3 tuned to 36hz. that way you won't lose much sq while improving the chances for "insanely loud" i'd suggest around 20-25in^2 of port as well. in your car, you should be loud enough to go deaf. it has awesome transient response. the bottoming out does concern me. is your box absolutely sealed? it could be allowing the sub to unload. what are your headunit settings? you say the gains on the amps are down, but do you have the head unit's settings maxed? just some things to look at. hopefully we can get this fixed, as you have a really nice sub, backed by one helluva company/person. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

looks good ryan... i need to snap a few pics of the alero install i need not too awful long ago that looks similiar to that...kinda... hehe wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

ok... rotflmao..the horse humor has me in stitches.... and not from a perforated colon...OMG, but that was just too funny.. u gotta love the IHoP... thanks nick! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

whew!! scared me there for a minute.. and the horseplay around here ass to stop....i mean, cum on...enough is enough already. so have ur horse's cum on u...errrrr...i mean get off with ur horses...errr.....i mean get off on the horses....dammit...forget it... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

that right there..that statement makes u ok in my book regardless. i don't visit ca.com very much due to the retards...(and thanks for the plug..lol) and most of them would not/do not think the way u just spoke. but i agree with ryan, it's good u stepped up to the plate and turned the tables...bravo. and ed...yep...lol....that explains it. if u've ever been to pueblo, especially the east side, then u'd understand..hehe oledalay' vato!!! whasss happening??? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Yeah Kent, it does. Only reason I stay is because of the pay. If I could find anywhere else that pays this much for what I do, I'd be saying see ya! ed..ya know...lol....u drive a neon (srt4 or whatever..still a neon) and today i learn ur hispanic. where i grew up, u'd be...well.....banished into the white race for driving that car...unless of course u had it on 13" daytons, 6-8" chain steering wheel and the ability to go front&back, side to side, pancake and one up. lol.... and where's the purple dice??? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I took all that stuff off so I could get a decent sig pic. They're back on now. Here's my real car: i am officially ...OMG...i can't stop laughing.. that ed, is priceless!!! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

beaner..lol....that's a word i've haven't used in awhile... but i gotta agree with ed, it's jsut too easy to get by with racism on the net..there isn't any real punishment for it. with that said, i grew up in a city (pueblo, co) where hispanics are the majority and alot of those are cholos' (spell?). being the typical white guy, i got the greingo (spell?) alot..so they got the beaner, wetback or whatever. but it was mostly in fun. on occasion, it did get outa hand and fights ensued. so like what ur referring too over at ca.com. it happens. u responded in a way u thought, at the time, was the right way. well, don't sweat it. it's over. and in a place like that, maybe u woke a few ppl up. but ya know, u bring up a good topic and a lot of questions. but we'll save that for another day..lol... for now... thanks for manning up and it's all good by me! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

good morning ur work sucks ed..lol...almost as bad as mine! but i do have good benefits, so i guess i'll stay... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

welcome here!! nice to have a bit of international knowledge... how about sharing some of ur secrets for getting loud?? hmmmmmm? like, what car do u compete with? links to those amps? and anything else u don't mind sharing... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i've read two outa ur three posts so far.... i'm starting to like u...lol... thanks for the info so far...keep up dishing out the knowledge... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

the pr series amps are nice. put out their rated power and give u the memphis quality. on thing about the pr series amps, the tend to use a bit more current to make their power compared to their m class brethren. not a big issue if ur electrical system and connections are solid, but just a heads up. the orion would be agood choice, if you don't mind refurbs. and i've had my hifonics for well over a year, not a single issue. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

eh? are u referring to me? if ya are..lol....well..ur right...hehe but i gotta agree with denim. thsi forum is mature enough that having different manufacturers here isn't an issue, but rather an asset. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i like the engine transplant... and the console/amp rack...but the box was too plain for the rest of the truck.... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

steve be thuggin!!! lmao... that was a funny list...it needs stickied... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
