Posted August 17, 200520 yr Hey im a newbie and i am lookin into sellin my current system and getting a new one. I am sellin my Pl2-212 system with PA amp. My friend is thinking about buying it but he needs permission from his parents (lol). Anyways i was looking at getting a new system and i am looking for more of an Spl sub(s) that still has alot of Sq to go around. I am looking for a Sub(s) that is no more than 250. Thanks
August 17, 200520 yr Admin Adire Audio subwoofers get my vote all day.knew you were going to say that, but does your vote stay the same with the increased prices?
August 17, 200520 yr Author Ok. I think i looked at them earlier before but ill look again. Some other person has just told me that they would get a Resonent Engineering SE 15 over a Rl-p15. What do yall think?
August 17, 200520 yr an se over rlp?no...not even for loudness...IMOsx louder then the rl-p...probably...for $250 per sub, the rl-p is flat out going to be hard to beat, unless u can get a used mag, brahma or xxx. another good sub that is sql, more so towards spl, the memphis m3. or even m3 mojo. they aren't quite as clean as the above mentioned subs, but can hold their own spl wise.wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
August 17, 200520 yr Admin the RL-p is a step up from the SE for sure, but the SE is still a great sub with out a doubt, fun daily driver sub
August 18, 200520 yr Even with the increase in price I'll stick with Adire for cheaper SQ drivers. If you want to spend some real money though.. look at the Morel and Dynaudio subs.
August 18, 200520 yr SS prices are cheaper and the subs look better.If i had 2 RL-p 15's i could do a review on them and my old brahmas
August 18, 200520 yr Admin Alright. What about the SX over the Rlp? How much do the SXs run?the SX is much more of an SPL driver,the RL-p is an SQL driver
August 18, 200520 yr Author Alright thanks. Do you know if there is anywhere i can get the SX cheaper than the Rl-p15 but still have a warranty?
August 18, 200520 yr Admin Alright thanks. Do you know if there is anywhere i can get the SX cheaper than the Rl-p15 but still have a warranty?
August 18, 200520 yr Admin power has nothing do do with the sub, in the right box for both subs, that is hard to say, it is up to the install, but the RL-p starts off with a large cone surface advantageso in theory the RL-p should be louder, but the SX might get a little louder on the MIC but maybe not to your ear
August 18, 200520 yr Author Alright. I plan on puttin them in a ported box. So the RE SX 15 will be louder all the way around if its in the recomended box?
August 18, 200520 yr Admin head to head of the same size, the SX should be louder, its made to be an SPL sub, the RL-p is an SQ sub that can get somewhat loud,for daily RL-pfor comp SX
August 20, 200520 yr Even with the increase in price I'll stick with Adire for cheaper SQ drivers. If you want to spend some real money though.. look at the Morel and Dynaudio subs.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Just my .02. The advice above isn't bad exept the part about morel and Dyn those are both super high quality but they really lack output and they generally need really large boxes. I've played around with the dyn's but not morel's.IMO you should just throw a bunch of power to a 15" Rl-P and be done with it.I know you are concerned about how loud it will be but one 12 rlp in my car can get loud enough to make your voice stop working and your ears start ringing just to give you an idea and its sealed at 1.2 off of 600wrms.my ID max is louder but if you ask which one I want to listen to and I'll always say my SS.b
August 20, 200520 yr Author I am thinkin about buying a Hifonics 1500d or 1205d or a Audiobahn 1300hct.
August 20, 200520 yr Those amps put their power out at 1ohm. You wont be able to get a D2 RL-p unless you get a used one. Plus its a lot of power for that sub, same with IDMAX. SX would work well with that power.
