Posted February 9, 200619 yr hey everyone. I just wanted to know what size hole was cut in your enclosure to house a 15" RL-p.If I'm not mistaken on Sound Splinters web page it states that the diameter is 13.85 to the outsid edge of the surround.So what I did was cut out a hole that measured 13.85 inches.I put my sub in the box and it wouldn't fit. the whole was about 1/2 inch too small or more.ten minutes later with my trusty jig saw the sub was in and clearing properly.what measurement did you guys use to install a 15" RL-p??they should update their web page with the correct mesurements. (or did I miss something?) Edited February 9, 200619 yr by Amish Marauder
February 9, 200619 yr Author the mounting cutout is 35.5cm so thats about 13.976 inches<{POST_SNAPBACK}>That can't be correct. 13.976 inches? I cut mine to 13.85 I even used a micrometer. I then measured it when the sub would not fit and the measurement from one end of the suround to the other was a bit over 14" now I'm really confused.
February 9, 200619 yr Umm, 13.976" is larger than 13.85", no wonder it didn't fit.And the mounting diameter is listed on the website already....http://www.soundsplinter.com/rlp15_premium...nformation.html1" = 2.54cmWhat kind of micrometer has the ability to even measure that large anyways?

In my initial post I admitted maybe I over looked something and was just asking a question. I see where I went wrong now too. I was looking at the diagram in the upper left corner of that page you posted. I missed the info on the right hand side all together.

I figure you didn't read my post and that is why you are confused.

It wasn't a huge deal, and was easily fixed.
