good job mang

4 of them might damage your internal organs, and will ruin your hearing..im so jealous I got about half of my install permanently done yesterday, but didn't get the rlp hooked back up. So I'm bassless until the weekend when i can finish it up. I had to hook up a set of comps because i couldn't drive 130 miles round trip to school today in silence. I do not have a camera except on my phone and for some reason it stopped letting me send pics. I know that makes a hoser with no pics..and i will get some even if i have to use a disposable cam! Just give me a little time M5, i too love the old PG, but except for the ms1000, and 2250 they just dont put out enough power for me anymore. I wish i could afford a ms1000ta for a couple of rlp 15's but i just dont have the funds or the space for a set up like that. I also doubt my 200 amp alt could support a ms1000 and another amp for mids. I did see a m25 and m44 in mint condition at the audio store near here about a week or so ago. $199 & $289 respectively, high but i think they would drop the price some. PM me if you want the contact info for the store. w00t3rz

Well those are the pro's and cons according to me. Barring another failure, i will stick with them. If another fails..ill talk some chit and find something new The one that failed was from the first flood of unauthed on ebay.

I'm writing this mini review to try and convince anyone who who might have the same reservations that i did, not to worry. I'm not real technical so this wont be very technical either. I was concerned about the output from a single 15". I mostly go for SQ, but on the rare occasion i put in a rap cd, i want that chit to get loud..while maintaining SQ. Ive also never owned a vented box, only sealed. So buying something based only on what people say on the net made me a little nervous. I decided to go for it and try a d4 15" in 3.5cf net @ 28hz in my gangster ass escort hatchback I am powering it with a PG xenon x200.4. Bridged down to 2 channels each VC gets a little over 450w. I played with settings a little but most of my listening was done with EQ set on defeat, i used time alignment on a 8454, and xover'ed @ 63hz. The sq on the thing is amazing. It isn't overbearing, its just clean and accurate. The sub just does what its supposed to do. I listened to everything: punk rock, bluegrass, jazz, country, electronica, and reggae and didn't feel like i needed to adjust the sub out at all. The rl-p just did what it should have and blended. It had the right amount of presence for all th music i tossed at it. Snappy response and a rich good sound. I dont think i sacrificed any SQ going vented but i guess i haven't heard the driver sealed so i cant really say for sure. Then i decided to try out some rap to see what the output was like. Put in Mike Jones and was friggen stunned. The same sub was now flexing my windows! Long sustained low notes ftw. More than i was expecting from a single 15. This is where the driver overpowered the mids. And chit i run two sets of PG ti elites powered by another 200.4. It maintained its SQ at all output levels. I picked up young jeezy for the drive home and was further amazed with the output this thing has. It has enough output to keep me happy and any more would just hurt. GOOD JOB MIKE!

dam, i hate being poor ;(

i also prefer the signed cone look.. to bad i was to late to get one.. mike you should switch back!

bump because i want to know

Im trying to make plans i can take to a shop and have built. Never done this before. Im trying to get 3.5CF net @ 28hz (rec from mike). The program im using is bassbox pro 6. How does this look? Does it have enough vent area? Do i need to add braces or anything?

I live in south dakota...the middle of no where..faulkton I doubt anyone is close. I think i will get plans from someone and then just take them to a shop. Then at least i know it will be right.

Ok i ordered a 15" rlp that should be here friday. Im going to have a vented box built to 3.5cf @ 28hz. What i want to know is about is vent area. Ive heard people talk about it but im not sure how it effects output and SQ. I do not trust any of the shops around here so i want to know as much about what im getting built before i go in and talk to any of them. So should i worry about vent area, or just tell them i want a 3.5cf @ 28hz box built. Thanks.
