Looking for good 12" Driver - TC Sounds, Soundsplinter?

[SPLJunkie]

Looking to use a sealed sub about 2 cubic feet and plan to power it with 1000 watts, looking for 50/50 SPL and SQ. Want to spend about $200-300. Thinking TC-1000 or TC-2000 and maybe the Soundsplinter RL-p12d2.

Wondering if there are any other brands I should be considering at this price point or are these the cream of the crop?

Who would you recommend buying from?

I thoguth TC1000's and RLP's sounded best in small sealed enclosures, I think in a 2 cuft box is too big for this sub.. You coudl easily put 2 in an enclosure that large though.

Never owned a tc, so I cant really tell. As for SS, i've owned many, and was always impressed with the SQ. A great combo of getting loud, and soulding good while doing it.

Well considering you owned a SoundSplinter, you owned a TC. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

Ok, on to my experiences. I have personally run a pair of Soundsplinter RL-p 12s. In the box I had them in 1.3 sealed per driver net. They sounded amazing. The main complaint with the RL-p was its tendancy to become "boomy" but with the proper box that can be fixed //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif\

Edit...

AND, Dalucifer beat me.

I understand that, but he is asking for either or "TC" "SS". //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

They are pretty much the same driver. Only difference is the cone and basket(depending on which driver he is talking about).

Does their free shipping include packages up to Vancouver Canada?

Thanks

Better to ask on their forums, you'd get a faster answer.

The big difference is customer service //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
