Rl-P's don't like a lot of power, so probably not much at all. I used to have an Infinty Perfect running from 250 watts rms, and the upgraded to an RL-P with 1200 watts, and from listening to the new one it barely sounded any louder. Then i swapped out the RL-P for an XXX and it was like comparing a finger snap to a sonic boom. RL-P's really aren't good SPL subs at all, but it did have very nice sound quality.

1 min you admit you did a terrible install, the next you blame it on the sub.

get a clue dude.

the rl-p is a great sub; i would recommend switching to it in a heartbeat.

I love how no one has ever adressed this issue. So tell me, if my install is so "bad" (i didn't even do it, a shop did) why is the XXX perfectly fine in my install when the RL-P was not? (it wasn't bad, just not impressive or anything, sounded like any other 12 out there). Since the XXX needs way more space than an RL-P, if the problem really was 100% install, would the XXX be bad as well? But it's not. Have fun with that one.

rlp not a good spl sub?????? the rlp will get LOUD and sound good doing it.... read this thread here are my test results......... http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=6258

now granted the box was optimized for the m3's still got better results from the Rlp's and they sounded better doing it.....

deff. they dont compare to the cvr's in spl or sq....... and yes the rlp will take 1200 rms daily and sound awsome and will get loud... deff a great choice in sub....

1. I didn't say it isn't a good sub, I just said don't excpect a significant increase in SPL

2. No, it won't take 1200 watts daily and sound awesome. First off it didn't sound like it was producing any more power than my old sub, and it kept bottoming out from the power. So don't go telling people it will sound good with that amount of power, because i have personally used one with that amount it and it fell on its face. If you want it to be loud, get 2 of them and run each w/ 600 watts or so. Its not made to handle crazy amounts of power like that unless you want it to break. I also had it in a small sealed box and it still did all of this.
