I think you are tuning very low for both subs. If you do it that way it will kill on the low bass songs but anything over 60hz will be absolutely nothing. I had my 2 AA Havoc 18s in a 12cuft box tuned to ~27hz and it sounded so sloppy on the upper bass notes i couldnt listen to anything but rap. If you did the revos i would tune to 33-34hz. Not sure on the soundsplinter ive never built a box for an RL-p. Im also very "anti-18" because i honestly have not heard one that sounded good. |

I wouldn't recommend them at all, and the Revo's will crush them in every aspect. |

Gold Member Username: JakeyplaysbassSt. Louis, MO / ASU Post Number: 3217 Registered: Jul-05 | Just because you are tuned to 32hz and its not hitting the lows you want doesnt mean you have to tune the revos lower. One sub tuned to 32 will hit lower than a different brand sub tuned to the same freq. If all that mattered in hitting lows was the box tuning everyone would be running the cheapest subs they could find and tuned to 28hz. It doesnt work like that. Look at DD they want everyone to tune there subs to 40hz and they still sound pretty damn good. Right now my axis box that is tuned to 33hz dominates all low notes. Its kinda weak in the upper bass notes tho, which is why im looking for something different in the near future. |
