    MAW12 vs rD Classic 12

    well, i'd wager either would work well. the rD classic was in spec boxs, the maw, larger then spec. teh rD might benefit from a smaller ported box, and both would have a bit more punch in a smaller sealed box... wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I've ruined atleast phone keeping it in my pocket from picking heavy chit and using my leg to help pick it. If I could find a composite/aluminum case you bet I'd pay $$ for it. my pocket is the only place i haven't ruined a phone, though it does tend to scratch them. especially if i forget it's in there and drop a knife, or change or keys into the same pocket, lol. but i see you point. why don't you make one? wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    yeah, his 225 is spread out over a very tall frame. my 235 is on a slightly more compact version, even at 6'2". lol, cheater. thanks aaron. i'm sure some will find fault with it, but that's ok. numbers don't lie and my opinion is just that, my opinion. it was fun to do, both are good subs and i really enjoyed it. i wish that was my job, lol. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    MAW12 vs rD Classic 12

    all else being equal, it's only the price that separates the two. seriously, they are that close. the output, while definitely in the classic's favor, is such that one can't hear the difference. i was surprised by the numbers, as they sounded very close. of course one could double up on the maw and regain output. but then one sacrifices room (though the maw is a smaller box woofer per the website) and then adds the need for power. to be honest, i don't know if i settled anything, but rather created more of an issue. lol, they are that close. all i know is it was fun. even put aside the oil change and service on the truck just so i could play with the subs all day. and that i did, lol! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    MAW12 vs rD Classic 12

    i should add that while teh smell of coils did indeed reach the nostrils, neither sub failed. neither is any worse for wear either, with no visible signs of damage to teh coils or otherwise. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    MAW12 vs rD Classic 12

    Term Lab numbers; I tested both subs, sealed and ported. I did it Db Drag style, mic on the glass, just above the dash, windows rolled up and vehicle off. This was all rD Classic. The only time the maw got the better of the Classic was at 70-75hz sealed. And it got it by 3db. Otherwise it went like this, Maw12 sealed, 127db, occurring at 47hz Classic 12 sealed, 128db, occurring at 46hz Maw12 ported, 130.6db, occurring at 42hz Classic12 ported, 131.8db, occurring at 45hz The sealed enclosure was on top of the rear seat, driver

    MAW12 vs rD Classic 12

    Sealed box testing; The Maw12 was in a bit bigger box then recommended, still it faired very well. With either fast double kicks or drop down low bass lines, it delivered and did so very well. As long as the music was fairly simple, this thing worked wonders. Let it get a bit complicated and it would get a tad muddy. Not overbearing muddy, but it would make it hard to tell what was trying to play. I never got it to bottom out either. A rated 350wrms sub, it was taking the ~600wrms from the Belle with relative ease. It would get warm and the coil would let me know I was giving it too much, but I never reached mechanical limits. Output was a bit disappointing. Not poor, but not what I expected. It loves the low lows, it does great on the fast stuff, it

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Are you actually getting an RD? actually have one sitting on my couch, lol. kevin holden actually followed through. there is a rD classic waiting to go into the truck later today. it might put the maw12 a bit back as far as review goes due to the fact the rD has to back by the 21st. but i'm going to try and get as much as both done today as possible. steve seems ok enough. he didn't want to do this almost as much as ben. and he'd prefer it go up against mainstreme only, as a way of knocking on jsut the big dogs. i'll throw a cvr in truck and maybe an m3 to meter. but once he learned i was getting one, he sent me soem boxes specs without my asking. he really wants his sub to do well, but then again, who wouldn't. as of this moment, it's only ben i have any real issue with. his chickenshit behavior jsut flat pisses me off. so mcuh so, that he'd be worth going to jail for, jsut to apply a nice ass whooping on his punk ass. kevin at least followed through, and is wanting to back up his words. steve, while reluctant, is doing the same. so they both get respect from me over that. as too ecoustics, well, i agree with mark5 assessment. it's a free for all. and as such, there isn't a such a thing as stooping too low. if one wants a piece of that pie, one jsut needs to wh0re one's goods. and let the consumer decide. if nothing else, it would provide interesting reading, and with mark5 throwing up validation links and ben not, makes one out a liar and the other a solid product. so one could learn quite a bit about the product as well.... btw, i'm rambling on a bit today...hmmmm wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
