    you didn't miss much...

    suggestions on single 12 setup

    an Avionixx 800.2 would go nicely with the dual 2 ohm version of the RL-p... just IMO.

    "Regular" vs. ribbon tweets

    Should be on the site, if I'm not mistaken? I don't know the specific ones they use...
  5. actual technical question follows ---> Basically as the title says...I've decided on an 5.25" or 6.5" MTM design that works for my app, but I've got a choice of ribbon or regular tweets. The ribbon kit is double the price of the normal one at $550...I've never owned a speaker using ribbon tweets, so I don't know if they'd be worth the price increase. FYI, the speakers I'm looking at can be found at http://www.parkeraudio.net. 95dB/W or 98dB/W at a stable 2 ohm load. Thanks. :musik05:

    suggestions on single 12 setup

    I've got a ported box tuned to 27Hz, and I can't really tell any loss in transient response, but maybe your ears respond differently to some things than mine do. Are you sure of that enclosure tuning? 30Hz should have a lot of SQ, maybe there was a miscalculation in the port system...

    suggestions on single 12 setup

    Would probably have to talk to Mike...1.2kW would be the most I'd run to it, but I'm sure there are people going higher that are careful. For a single 12 setup, I would run a low tuned ported enclosure anyway.

    Question...

    i'm 19...and i'm on my first...had it for around three years now. 94 Ford Econoline E-150 cargo van probably going to keep it until it dies, or 200K miles...whatever comes first. I'm at 135K on the original engine now, so it's looking good. Next vehicle I get is probably going to be a mid '70s Toyota FJ40 or similar 4x4. I miss driving a manual, and I miss being offroad...

    suggestions on single 12 setup

    for a TC9 based driver like the RL-p, I wouldn't go over a kilowatt in a ported box... Give it the recommended box size for a ported enclosure, and order the dual 4 ohm model to wire it to a 2 ohm combined load to the amplifier.

    "Regular" vs. ribbon tweets

    I don't think I need to worry about overpowering, not at 2 watts RMS per channel There's no extra crossovers or filtering in this circuit, the woofers are rolled off naturally, and there's just a single cap to the tweets.

    How did you guys find SSA???

    And I've made more posts in two days than you've made in one year? What have you been doing all this time? wait...scratch that.

    pg tantrum 1200.1

    The Tantrum isn't one ohm stable...it will do 1400+ watts from 2 to 4 ohms, but not below. Whether that makes it a cheater amp or not I don't know, because I don't compete
  18. JimJ

    Reasons for a bigger box?

    ow...my eyes hurt after that
  19. My vote would go to the Tantrum as well, if you can find them nicely used somewhere

    iPod Shuffle

    I have too much music for that...maybe I could get one for each genre? Very neat idea though. Anyone know any good Ipod substitutes for those of us that don't want to pay for the name?

    Acendant Audio vs TC 2+ review

    I forget what TC prototype the Stryke Audio AV12/15's are based off of, believe they're TC9 variants but I very well could be wrong about that.
