Both should do good, I would probably choose the RL-P though based on customer service feedback. I've never seen a complaint about Mike's CS, but there have been plenty about AA's.

I have an RL-P and my little brother has an Arsenal it is hard to compare since we both have different setups. Mine is in a hatch and a smaller ported enclosure then his. I will say though that both setups sound great you can't go wrong with either.

rl-p is $240, the AA is 160, im gathering the rl-p is worth the extra

The RL-p's look hella nice.

The Rl-p is more comparable to something along the lines of the Havoc...

i disagree. i've owned both subs and think they are very comparable. Both are very nice sql subs that blend in very well. The arsenal has a 3 yr warranty which is nice but the customer service isn't as good as Soundsplinter.

I'm in the same boat.

Right now I'm RL-P vs AA Arsenal vs Treo SSi

Have no idea what to do!!!

Anyone got suggestions on the Treo SSi?

Noah, RL-p is compareable to the old XXX, old XXX is compareable to the Avalanche, Avalanche is compareable to the Aresnal... Huge Generalizations there but yeah. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I've yet to hear an arsenal. If it stacks up with the avalanche like it's supposed to though, I would compare the rl-p directly to it. If it's as good a performer as the avalanche, I'd put it over the rl-p.

Have no experience with it though, so I can't say anything too concrete.

No, the Havoc is plain and simple a slightly modified TC9... and GUESS WHAT THE RL-P is?!?!?!?!?! A modified TC9 as well.

Basically, Assassin = wannabe IA 187, Arsenal = wannabe IA LI, Havoc = Wannabe IA DP...

So, make sure you actually know what you're talking about... or are YOU high?

Lawl... the Old XXX had plenty more linear displacement. But I get your humor //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif...
