rl-p excitement

[btmhwb 0]

Whats up guys im new here...I post at carstereo.com alot. I recently bought an rl-p from mike at ss, and just want to say that if the sub sounds as good as his customer service is, I will be impressed!! I get the sub saturday or monday, and I cant wait. I had an aw1205n from audiocrap and I blew it within a day. I had it runnin at 1200 watts at 1 ohm, it couldn't handle it. I am going to run the rlp at 800 watts at 2 ohms. Mike said that would be enough to make the thing slam. Does anyone else run about 800 on their rl-p? Does it pound?

that sub does sound as good as the customer service.i was running mine on a lil more power than urs but it should slam a plenty with 800 watts

i fed mine around 700 watts rms daily and it was perfect. you should be good to go at 800 watts

I have an Orion 8002 sitting in its box still waiting to be hooked up to the RL-p

i feel like such an outcast with only 500 w to each of mine

it doesnt help my ego either when everyone's pimpin bigger boxes with lower tuning than me

meh, I'm downstepping to ~600W whenever I pick up another amp. I don't feel the need to push the envelope anymore, or be so loud other people don't want to sit in my car.

i ran my mine with as little as 750, which it will get again, and it will indeed slam with that much power. it's a very impressive sub....

so who's sexier....

mike or his subs??

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

yeah I am going to be runnin it at a 2.5 cube box tuned to 30 hz. That would be great from what mike said. I was a little upset by the fact that my shipping got messed up on this order, and then mike told me I would get it on probably monday, but he emailed me yesterday and said it wouldnt be here till wednesday

I'm running right around 800w to mine and it wang chungs enough for me. I actually have it attenuated some.

But then again, I"m not a basshead anymore.

I have only a single 12 setup right now, so I was trying to get a great woofer to fill that requirement. I am a pretty big basshead, so I wanted something that pounded as well as sound nice. Does anyone know what I can compare this sub too? Is it up in class with a brahma or a w7? My understanding is yes, it is. Thats why i went with this woofer at 273 shipped. Its a steal!
