3518e vs rlp-18

[Linkz 10+ year member]

Which is better for the 25-45hz range? Which would do best in about 5cuft @ 25hz?

I'm just looking to see which would be the best buy and have better sq with about 1000wrms.

I will be using a power acoustik rated at 2200wrms @ 1ohm (BAMF-4000D or the 5500D). The rlp would be bought 2ohm dvc wired to 1ohm and the 3518e would be wired in series with dual .5ohm (for 1ohm)

Any input/personal experiences would be much appreciated.

My guess would be the RL-P. But I'm not sure.

i believe the only dd woofers people liked for sq are higher end ones. but its been debated before. i love my rl-p. had it for a year now! the rl-p would love that box btw.

btw, what other freq. range would you be talking about for a sub??

just messin man.

RL-p is the clear winner their, esp in that box, though it does seem kind of small for a single 18 ported.

The DD would def not like to be tuned that low, however.

I ran a RL-p in a 4 cubes at 28hz and it loves the lows.
