Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 374 Registered: Sep-04 | Just got off the phone with RE, and this is what their claim is, I asked about a SX 15" and also the 12" for the trunk of my 90 caddy! He suggested a ported box, which they would send the specs for if I bought from them. I have now(2)PPI Precision Power DCX 12 Subs in a vented box(not the best I know) but anyway he said that (1) 12" SX would SMOKE my subs with throwing 1500 watts rms into it with their box recomedation! IS this possible????? Thanks! |

Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 375 Registered: Sep-04 | Well we really didn't get into that. He just said that they would smoke them, whatever he meant I don't know! lol however he wants to sell a sub to, so I was wondering how much of that is a sales pitch! |

Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 380 Registered: Sep-04 | Over those 2 subs ya think? I see someone has one on ebay for sale, but then I wouldn't get the warranty and such either! |

Silver Member Username: Addicted2bassMiami, Florida USA Post Number: 968 Registered: Nov-04 | wait i thoguht you meant the 15" SX..i mustve read it too fast..i dont think 1 12" sx will get louder than the other 2 12's. UNLESS the enclsoure the ppi's are in is poorly built and the enclsorue the sx is in very well build. |

Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 381 Registered: Sep-04 | Well I tell ya, the box I have is a prefab vented box, and to be honest they sound like cr@p, so I want to improve that, and the guy said I should go with ported and he would send the plans for the box that would do it, now I can get the 15" as well!! That's why I had to ask on here, because they are going inside a trunk of a caddy! |

Silver Member Username: Addicted2bassMiami, Florida USA Post Number: 969 Registered: Nov-04 | oh ok trhen get the 15" SX...and i would say its a must to go ported with that sub..it doesnt like nor get loud in sealed enclosures. |
|
Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 383 Registered: Sep-04 | Thanks, I think I will, as the price is pretty close, just don't want it to be to much either, that's why he mentioned the 12 |

Silver Member Username: FfxdevilarmsDubuque, Iowa United States Post Number: 770 Registered: Jul-04 | think of the SX as a XXX without as good of SQ. |
|
Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 385 Registered: Sep-04 | I wish I could get that xxx, but I don't have the power to run it! |

Gold Member Username: James1115Wilton, Ct Post Number: 3781 Registered: Dec-04 | if you were planning on running the SX with 1500 watts the REXXX will run nicely off of that. what amp do you have? you might have said it already but I dont read everything when I am feeling lasy |
|
Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 386 Registered: Sep-04 | No, I don't have enough to run 1500 to it, that's what the salesman said I could run into it. I have a orion 1200 and and 1 ohm! I don't know if that amp is underrated or not. |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Wilton, Ct Post Number: 3784 Registered: Dec-04 | that amp will power a REXXX in a larger enclosure. |

Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 387 Registered: Sep-04 | Hmmmm! Maybe I need to look into that XXX Thanks |
