need a sub while waiting

Recommended Posts

yeah i thought i could wait but it could be 3-4 months on the diyma and i just can't wait that long. i would like to get both but thats not really an option financially right now.

I think so, if it is that long and still and unproven sub, where as LMT is proven and Eclipse has never released junk. I love eclipse and because of you I want one of these too.

the only thing that does scare me a little is the Fs which is 16hz on the 8200. my mids will be high passed at 80 hz but i don't know if the eclipse will play up to that. i guess i could stay around 1.0-1.2ft net to keep good upper end extension?

Yet the LMT from TC you can port just fine :blink:

I am curious the differences between the 8200, RL-s, TC 4Hp

you putting it right in the middle? if you went to the bottom, tthe 12 should still fit easily. unless they are ungodly deep.

pics are required when it gets in!!

well i have an 06 ram sport reg cab with buckets and full console. i wanted to put it directly behind the console downfiring but i didn't take the the console opening into consideration. i may just have to go with a more conventional mounting. the depth is 7.125".

you could do a traditional wedge box, but fire the sub at the back wall. we did that in a 06 ram truck just like yours with a pair of sealed tens...it sounds awesome.

sweet choice joe,

cant wait for pix and a review, if it is very nice I might sell my current eclipse to buy an 8200, but I hate to let them go...

we left the tray in. the box sits on top of that firing back.

but i dunno if that will give you enough depth.

they were either memphis prs or m3s..maybe comp vrs...i can't remember...we used a nissan titan prefab box. i then built a wedge ported one, but she likes the prefab firing at the rear wall. i want to say it's about 9" deep at the bottom....

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:

its a natural progression, i'll move the 125.2 down to the legatia 62 comp set i plan to get and be good to go. the vas on these subs is 8.27ft, so 2 of them should get a little air moving, lmao.

I preordered the diyma 12" but need something to run in the meantime. the amp i have is 500w rms, probably underrated. i'm looking at either one of the eclipse sw 8000 lmt 10's sealed or a single rli-8 ported. The treo ssi 8" is on the list as well and it would be ported.

A little cleaner than the SS LMT because of the surround and 1 less spider, but not quite the excursion due to shorter coil, it will still pull 3" peak to peak if you push it. Its definitely in the category of a LSQ driver and certainly is the best LSQ driver I have come across. Sounds a lot better than a 12W7, and the head to head tests I did on a klippel confirmed that.
