Posted May 13, 200817 yr cant really make up my mind, i keep changing from one to the other.. which would u choose? ive got a kicker zx1000.1 to power the sub(s). wanting good sound quality but also want to feel the bass hitting me in the chest a little bit Edited May 13, 200817 yr by 02xblazer
May 13, 200817 yr Admin Is budget a factor? Or space for that matter?All things considered in general, if you want more output the pair of RL-i's will be the choice due to double the cone surface.
May 13, 200817 yr Author tryin to find a part time job to pay for vehicle upgrades so if i get one budget wont really be a factor...would 1000w be enough to power 2 icons?
May 13, 200817 yr Author i want it to sound good but also hit u in the chest when i decide to turn it up, if that makes sense.. listen to rock/metal and will be in a sealed box
May 13, 200817 yr The chest will be a function of your midbasses...unless of course you turn up the frequency that your sub is playing into non-sub frequencies. Either way you will have enough power.
May 13, 200817 yr Author i want to have the best system at work...heres what im up against2 10" planet audio with 300x2 planet audio amp.. planet audio speakers in the doors with another pa amp2 10" sony xplodes with a 900w sony amp..stock speakers, no amp2 10" kicker l7 with spl 1440 amp..stock speakers, no amp2 10" pioneer with 900w sony amp...stock speakers, no amp cuz he doesnt know why the hell anyone would amp their door speakers!besides the zx1000.1 i have pg rsd65cs comps and 125 sqft of raamaat.. also buyin a planet audio vx1502 for the comps from my buddy for cheap
May 13, 200817 yr Admin 80hz is a good starting point. You can adjust it to suit your listening preferences. Many people here have their subs crossed over at 63hz.
May 13, 200817 yr Author thats what i though..may be awhile b4 i get all the equipment.. shouldnt be to hard to sound better than the other systems at work
May 13, 200817 yr Real easy, although I would imagine they might think your subs sound best crossed at 120hz when in reality 50hz is even better, but of course will take a hell of a front stage to blend.
May 13, 200817 yr Author also how do u think the output of 2 rl-i10s in a custom box and a zx1000.1 would compare to 2 l7s10 in a store bought box with a spl 1440(720w rms)
May 13, 200817 yr Author for now the front stage will be pg comps powered by the pa vx1502..doors will be deadened and speakers will have mdf baffles
May 13, 200817 yr Admin also how do u think the output of 2 rl-i10s in a custom box and a zx1000.1 would compare to 2 l7s10 in a store bought box with a spl 1440(720w rms)As the L7's have a serious cone advantage, that will be hard. Not to mention you will be driving the RL-i's near their limit.
May 13, 200817 yr Author with atleast 300w more to the ss will it be close? his kickers have more that enough out put for me
May 13, 200817 yr Admin The thing is that the RL-i 10's really should not run too much more then 500 watts. So what I was saying is that with that amp, when going full tilt it will do close to 1400 watts.
May 13, 200817 yr Author birthsheet says 1156w so at full tilt they would get 578w... gains will be set properly so they wont see that much
May 13, 200817 yr Author has anyone heard an icon 10 with 1000w goin to it in a sealed box? kinda leaning towards the single sub set up
May 26, 200817 yr Author to get tight bass from a 12 or 15" icon what size sealed box would u recommend for each? alway thought tens were tighter but have since learned different
