im thinking of grabbing two re xxx 18s and running them in 22 cubic ft
ported to about 39hz and using a 500sq inch port.

run about 10k to the pair.

With that much power to boot, I would pick up some 18 btls. Such high tuning for an sql sub like the xxx doesnt seem worth it.

My car is going to restrict my box specs, but Im thinking 5 cubes each 18 tuned to 30 hertz... That should cause a bit of rumble

im not going for spl...............straight street beater.
and the tuning will be fine for that sub.

The design looks very similar to ID. The surround as a molded part of the gasket, the motor shape, the hammer coat finish of the basket............Yeah parts consolidation.

It looks good. I think my neighbors would get upset with it as a new HT sub though.

Dont think it would handle that kind of power for long.

Do you want to make a graph of the 18 of it vs something else

Going out shortly to do some side work. But will return and give it a whirl, likely have some thing tomorrow, however I think my current program is not properly functional.

errin did you get your graphing program up and going again? would like to see the 18 vs something decent

Post by **VW337** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 9:57 am

ROFL

although to be fair...i think the graphs can be wrong. this is the same software that told me that the ZR10 would have the same curve as a RSD10 and slightly louder....(

rsd's destroyed them in every way btw)

Mackenzie · Post by **Mackenzie** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 10:13 am

Yea this leaves me to think the graphs are a bit off... I would think the rlp 18 would smash the rsds on the low end... o well

brenzbmr@sb · Post by **brenzbmr@sb** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 10:56 pm

well we got one of our re xxx 12s and holy shit that has to be one of the most insane subs i ever seen.

we will build a box for it soon and try it in our cars.

im really tempted to grab two of teh 18s and build me a 40 hz
street beater................

damn im getting the bug again.

in output it should....

but the way PG designs subs, I wouldn't be surprised if the RSd has more presence in the low end.

LIke fowler said, this is the same graph respone that said the octane zr should beat the rsd in every way. So who knows..
