New member Username: ChrsschbPost Number: 7 Registered: Feb-07 | Setting up a small system in a convertible. Subs will be in a sealed box. Approximately .4 -.6 cubes of space for each. They will be getting 350w RMS each from a RF 700S (700x1 @ 4ohm or 350x2 @ 2ohm) so they will need to come to a total of 2 or 4 ohm. Thanks. |

New member Username: ChrsschbPost Number: 8 Registered: Feb-07 | Is the RL-i worth the extra cost over the DD8 or RE8? It's about an extra $100 for the rl-i over the re8. |

New member Username: ChrsschbPost Number: 9 Registered: Feb-07 | Where can I get info on the 1508's? I only see 1008's on dd's website. |

Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 418 Registered: Dec-06 | I thought the concensus was that DD makes the best subs around? Not true for the 8's? |
|
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleImortal Box Building Post Number: 6159 Registered: Feb-06 | they dont make the best subs. They make some nice ones. |
|
Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 419 Registered: Dec-06 | OK...I didn't think it was neccesarily fair to say anyone is the best, but it seems as tho a lot of people think that (at least on other forums). Would you do those RL-i 8" .6 cu ft tuned to 30hz? |

Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 420 Registered: Dec-06 | That is insane, but he is running it at like 850 watts when they recommend 300. The website said no problem with 500, but 850 seems too much to run it at every day. You think? |

Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleImortal Box Building Post Number: 6161 Registered: Feb-06 | its getting like 400... |
|
Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 424 Registered: Dec-06 | How is that? 2500 @1, 1700 @2, 1200 @4, therefore I am just guessing 800-850 @8. Or are the numbers provided by woofersetc.com max numbers and not RMS? |
|
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleImortal Box Building Post Number: 6162 Registered: Feb-06 | no it would put out like 800-850 @ 6ohms..? |
|
Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 425 Registered: Dec-06 | OK..I'll trust you logan. I just figured that 1700 is about 70% of 2500, and 1200 is about 70% of 1700. So I just figured in 70% of 1200 is 850. No? |
|
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleImortal Box Building Post Number: 6163 Registered: Feb-06 | lol i have no idea how they figure it. i was just guessing |
|
Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 426 Registered: Dec-06 | I think I have it right... Either way, what would you suggest feeding those so they hit well, but don't fry them? |
|
Gold Member Username: Logan__tilleImortal Box Building Post Number: 6168 Registered: Feb-06 | the rl-i? |
|
Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 427 Registered: Dec-06 | yeah... |
