I have 550-600 RMS to deliver to one of the two subs lsted in the title (RL-p or RL-i). Will the RL-i be over powered at this? I would prefer to get the RL-i. Let the opinions begin...

no, u won't be overpowering the rl-i with 600wrms if u have the correct enclosure.

for the money, i'd go ahead and get the rl-p...even more headroom there if needed...

but i honestly don't think u can go wrong with either...i'd say ur pocketbook determines the winner.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i agree with mrray if u ever wanted to buy a bigger amp u dont have to go get another sub to handle it

welcome to SSA first off,

and go for the RL-p

go ppppppppp I should be ok though.

What is the "correct enclosure"?

Also, I checked out the response curve on this and was surprised that it drops off so quickly. How is the bass output from 20 - 40 hz?

well...

rl-i

sealed..about .5ft^3

ported...about .75ft^3

with 600wrms...

and the bass response is awesome..lol...mike has a video on here somewhere with sound..u need to check it out! the rl-i's get sinister low!

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
