Thought i would give a quick update. Still impressing more and more eac h time i listen. Its deep bass is incredibly loud comparable or more than my (2) Soundstream T4 12" in a ported box i had a few years ago running 2000 rms!! Its punchy as hell when appropriate with amazing sounds quality. I...

no port, its sealed. its 1.39 cubes after displacement.

Finally got around to installing my Rainbow Profi 10". Ive heard only one song so far but wow does it sound amazing. I have the gains completely down on the PDX-5 which is rated at 360rms x2ohm for the subwoofer channel. I havent even begun tuning yet, its really crisp and clear. If i have my...

Found this bit on the alpine site: Per channel into 2 Ohms: (@ 14.4V Ƈ%THD+N, 20Hz - 200Hz @ 2I? for Mono ch.) 300W x 1 So i could wire these in parallel at 1.6 and should be fine? How do i wire them in parallel? Yes 1 set of terminals per voice coil.

My Rainbow Profi has dual voice coils, and the box says 2x3.3 ohm impedance. How do i wire this to my PDX-5 Amp to run at 4 ohm? cant find a calculator that does 3.3 ohms... Im also confused why the box says 2x3.3 shouldnt it be 4x3.3 since there are 2 sets of 2 inputs on the voicecoils? Im...

I will get a video shortly in the next few days hopefully. Tweets are mounted in the stock dash location up by the windshield and couldnt be happier, although i keep finding myself going back and forth on the +0 and +3 db inputs... These kicks are making the wait for the sub very easy. The kicks...

ANd it continues to amaze... Rainbow reccommends 10 hours of break in time to assess quality, im about 2 hours in and it seems like they get better by the song. Constantly being surprised, cant wait to incorporate the Profi.

So i got my new system in after 40 hours of laboring. The end product is simply amazing and ive only played it for about an hour. The kicks are really sounding better by the song and i cannot believe how hard they hit. I followed install instructions by keep_hope_alive so the credit of the SQ...

Thanks for the input. I figured i should just trust that the passive xovers by Rainbow are probably pretty quality anyway. I'll start a new Build Log Thread when i start putting this thing in and keep you guys updated on how it sounds. Really stoked to hear this equipment together

I got the following setup on the way or already here: HU: Alpine-CDE-HD149BT: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...E-HD149BT.html Comp Speakers: Rainbow SLC 265 Kick: http://www.woofersetc.com/p-7032-slc...nt-system.aspx 5-Channel Amp: Alpine PDX-5: Birth sheet reads 105w x 4 RMS and 360w x...

Couldnt agree more! Absolutely zero flaws in his building skills and materials as good as quality as possible. I just wish i still had a vehicle i could fit this in, sounded very good.

Have this really nice enclosure sitting around for the past 4 years (2 vehicles ago), its in great shape, was only use for about 3 months before i sold the car. The carpet is sagging a little bit, but nothing a single staple wouldnt solve. It has a double baffle, and 3/4" MDF all around, black...

thanks for the replies.sounds like it was a good idea to ask before spending $200 on mats. im assuming ill want to deaden and seal?   ---------- Post added at 12:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:48 AM ----------   thanks so much for the reply, ygpm.

So iv'e been trying to research and estimate how much deadener i will need for my two doors (2 dr hatchback so the doors are longer) before i place my Rainbow SLC Kicks in there. Since i am crossing these over at 80hz a reccommended do i still need to go all out with deadening the doors? Here...
