jwalks Posted December 18, 2012 Report Posted December 18, 2012 Hi guys, been shopping online and found 10" RE audio Rfx subs for sale at a pretty decent price. Not very familiar with the brand re, heard good things though. Just wondering if i should give a pair of these subs a try. Anyone ever come in contact with them? Thanks in advance. Ultimate low budget Lancer
CleanSierra Posted December 18, 2012 Report Posted December 18, 2012 They are basically a step up from their basement entry line. I wouldn't probably go that route, as their are entry level subs built by Skar, Sundown, and others. They won't handle much power and won't have a ton of output. What are you looking to put them in? Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
Rockford96 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Posted December 18, 2012 Just posted a new thread in this and scrolled down and seen this but im also interested in that cleanseirra u helped me with my 2 12s12s and looking in to tje e8s but looks like those will be to much $$$ My setup, Digital Designs M80 3 Re audio 10's ported tuned to 36 hz Kenwood x-696 SHCA 0 gauge Polk audio coax running off hu
john253a Posted December 18, 2012 Report Posted December 18, 2012 Best bet is to shop around Online prices arnt always the cheapest price They are a good reference or guide through But a cs said They are entry level and for the same price there are some less known brands that will exceed them for the same price How much you looking to speed and how much space do u have U can look at Skar Sundown FI Oa Dc The list goes on pretty much any listed brand on here is a good start
CleanSierra Posted December 18, 2012 Report Posted December 18, 2012 I know somewhere else you asked about possibly 4 8s being a possible idea right? Just for some additional info, could you tell us dimensions of your current box and what you reasonably are willing to give up for leg space. 4 8s are less than the cone area of 2 12s just so you know. 2 10s ported from 33-38 in that truck is my suggestion. Fire at B-pillar with round PVC or aero ports. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
ccmotox99 Posted December 18, 2012 Report Posted December 18, 2012 You can spend 40$ more a sub and get obsidian 12s. My 1 15 handles my aq 2200d at half gain, sounds fantastic. -playing with different setups
bigmescan Posted December 18, 2012 Report Posted December 18, 2012 i use to live and die by RE but not anymore... i would suggest IMO sundown audio 8's... there was a link some where on the version 1 of the sa8. inthink they whe like 120 or 140 a piece.... but thats if space is an issue SONY XAV-701HDRF power 400.4 RF power 1000bd 3 Sundown x8's d22004 f150 single cab2 sets of components MB quart 6.5 onx (2 tweets 2 6.5 perdoor)stock batt up fronBIG 3http://www.stevemead...-vid-pg-11-922/http://www.youtube.c.../TheBigmescan74

Fire at B-pillar with round PVC or aero ports. ya i seen it was less cone area and i already moved the seat as far forward as i can for driving the max dimensions for that are 50 width 19 high 4in top depth 8.5 bottom depth i will start looking into tens i knew it was less cone area just dazed by the whole 4 8s thing sounding cool (no hatin) thanks for the suggestion man im looking into tens now and when i put those dimensions in torres i get 2.68 gross and with 2 4" ports 18 in long its 25 sq in of port and the net is 2.38 (using.5 mdf) for three 10s that sound ok?

john253a Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 Your got 2.2gross if box is 50x19x(4/8) Even 2x 10" ported wont happen And with a shallow m/depth the sa8 are off the list Idd say 1 ported 10 Or 2 to 3 ported 8" If wan to go sealed that different story You could do 4x e10 in there on 15-2k You also need to allow room for the sub to move and if thoes mesurments are hard up against the back of the seat you'll have to take even less off the depth then you looking at a smaller net an gross again
CleanSierra Posted December 19, 2012 Report Posted December 19, 2012 He's using .5" MDF(for low powered subs go for it). I think you can get away with 3 3" ports at 18" long, 2 sundown E10s, tune of 34.41Hz, internal volume if 2.21 after displacements. That is plenty for those subs. Pre drill every hole perfectly, to avoid splitting, and seal the HELL out of the box with silicone and make sure you've glued all the joints well. I've got this estimate assuming its firing at the B-pillar. You must have 3" of clearance from the port to the nearest obstruction. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
