Platinum Member Username: BestmankindIM THE REAL SLIM SHADY Post Number: 16483 Registered: Oct-05 | since this thread is for steve, i hope you guys don't mind me asking a few questions to him. we mind as well make use of this thread. hahaha. i am really interested in a pair of rd classic. i see that on the site the classics are sq subs and work well in a small sealed. that is what i want. but it also says that you ported and it played flat. well my question is, does it sound better sealed or are these subs for more ported applications? |

Silver Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 188 Registered: May-07 | They sound better sealed but we can design you a ported box with a very flat response. Ported they still sound great. |

Silver Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 190 Registered: May-07 |  two 1750.1's to each of these would do the trick! |
|
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindIM THE REAL SLIM SHADY Post Number: 16496 Registered: Oct-05 | steve another question. you think the sq elite sound better than the classics? also will one elite get loud enough sealed? |
|
Gold Member Username: JtownTeam Revolution, Texas Post Number: 1537 Registered: Mar-07 | is that the new elite? I don't recognize that color basket.. |
|
Gold Member Username: JtownTeam Revolution, Texas Post Number: 1538 Registered: Mar-07 | nvm....It's a heavyweight...now I feel stupid btw, the new site looks great! I just registered with the forum as well. Good job! |

Silver Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 194 Registered: May-07 | The SQ Elite will play a lot lower than the Classic is able to. Due to the very low FS. |

|
Gold Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 1813 Registered: Nov-06 | well according to Mr. Chad Lee the FS of a sub doesn't have anything to do with how low a sub plays ;) |
|
Silver Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 197 Registered: May-07 | If you want one subwoofer on 3000w i would say use the Heavyweight SQL. If you want to use two subwoofers use the Alpha. Three i would say the new Elite. Four subwoofers you can use the Sonance. We can design a box for you. Also if you let me know the cubic ft. you want to use it would help greatly. |

Platinum Member Username: BestmankindIM THE REAL SLIM SHADY Post Number: 16539 Registered: Oct-05 | i said the fs doesn't necessarily mean how low you should tune a box. but yes the fs doesn't necessarily mean how low the sub plays. my rl-s fs is around 30hz. a little more i believe. it plays much lower than alot of subs with lower fs. when i asked mike from sound splinter about fs and the tuning of the box, this is what he told me. "The Fs - or resonant frequency - is not indicative of where you would want to tune your driver for a maximally flat response. There are more variables than just the Fs at work when deciding where to tune a ported enclosure for any given driver. Most important is the Qts, and with the RL-s having such a high Qts, the driver will respond with a large peak if tuned at moderate to high levels. If you're an SPL competitor and want a one-note wonder, then this is probably fine. For the rest of us who want out media to be reproduced accurately, it just won't cut it, and on the RL-s, the sealed box is by far the best option. If you did want to vent, you would want to tune quite low. In car, I would not go above 28 Hz (preferring 24 Hz), and in home I would lean closer to 16 Hz! In short though, I simply don't recommend venting this product. " |

Silver Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 201 Registered: May-07 | scott- One 12" or possibly a 15" heavyweight if you can squeeze a little more than 3 cubes and get it closer to 4. Chad- If you want to tune 32-38HZ then the classic will work great for you. |
|
Platinum Member Username: BestmankindIM THE REAL SLIM SHADY Post Number: 16547 Registered: Oct-05 | cool thanks steve. i really wish you made an elite 15. the sq version. if its possible that would be great. |

Gold Member Username: Denali_on_22sYou can call me Scroog... Post Number: 3453 Registered: Feb-06 | i really want an elite 15 too... |
|
Silver Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 204 Registered: May-07 | If you wanted a elite 15" you may want to consider an Alpha v.2 with a single spider. They are very musical and work well off 1000-1500W. for 1500+ we have been using 2 spiders. The Fs on them is in the mid 20's once broken in. |
|
Gold Member Username: JtownTeam Revolution, Texas Post Number: 1546 Registered: Mar-07 | so what's the difference between a single or dual spider? I was also considering a single 15" elite or Alpha v2 for my next setup |
|
Silver Member Username: TeamrevolutionATLANTA, GA USA Post Number: 205 Registered: May-07 | The single spider has a looser suspension and works very well to around 1500w. Two spiders has a little more of a break in period and works better on 1500+ watts. It controls the coil better with more power. So if you want to use 2000w rms use the two spiders if you are 1500w or less use the single spider. |

Silver Member Username: VisitorMiddleofnowhere, Minnesota USA Post Number: 166 Registered: Jul-07 | single spider also has the tendency to drop lower easier, adn bae a bit more efficient just trying to help out here |
|
Gold Member Username: JtownTeam Revolution, Texas Post Number: 1551 Registered: Mar-07 | I do like the lows, but I am thinking of moving up to 2kwrms, would the single spider be able to handle it? |
