Mike Silver Member Username: Tdisanto Post Number: 206 Registered: Sep-05	Posted on Wednesday, October 05, 2005 - 03:51 GMT 1600 watts RMS, your gunna need to send them at least 800 wrms. The XBL^2 motor topology is very inefficient, thus requiring quite a bit of power.

Josh Gold Member Username: Basshead86 Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2052 Registered: Aug-05	Posted on Wednesday, October 05, 2005 - 04:00 GMT unfortunately, the two subs i would recommend are unavailable at this time. the Adire Brahma, and the Ascendant Audio Avalanche. you could try the IDMAX, or uhhhhhh, a SoundSplinter Rl-p.
Mike Silver Member Username: Tdisanto Post Number: 208 Registered: Sep-05	Posted on Wednesday, October 05, 2005 - 04:06 GMT You could utilize that motor topology on a smaller power handling sub as well too. RE could fabricate the XBL^2 on the RE12 and it could still be 150wRMS, which is way less than the RE XXX. However, A speaker doesnt need every bit of its RMS rating of power to reach its full mechanical potential. So what i was saying is that the XBL^2 motor topology needs more of that RMS power to reach full excursion than say a motor that has an overhung or underhung design. So the RE XXX is 1600 wRMS, howerver it might only need 1000wRMS to reach peak excursion. If the RE XXX didnt use the XBL^2 technology it could still be rated for 1600wRMS, but it might only need say 800wRMS to reach peak excursion. I was referring to motor design vs power consumption. not comparing sub to sub. It might have come out wrong, but i think you get my point. do you agree with me now

Mike Silver Member Username: Tdisanto Post Number: 211 Registered: Sep-05	Posted on Wednesday, October 05, 2005 - 04:19 GMT by the way, dont you have 2 12" IDMAXs? How do they sound.
Josh Gold Member Username: Basshead86 Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2057 Registered: Aug-05	Posted on Wednesday, October 05, 2005 - 04:21 GMT LOL, I WISH!!! i have 1 2500 10" DD.
Mike Silver Member Username: Tdisanto Post Number: 212 Registered: Sep-05	Posted on Wednesday, October 05, 2005 - 04:26 GMT oh, i just see you ranting about those IDMaxs and i thought you were getting them/had them. LOL. I hear ya though we all have our dream subs.

Dr David Hyre aided in its development as well. He doesn't get enough credit, had to mention it XBL^2 is in the middle of overhung and underhung. Underhung is terribly inefficient, overhung tends to be more efficient.

Josh Gold Member Username: Basshead86 Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 2076 Registered: Aug-05	Posted on Thursday, October 06, 2005 - 14:13 GMT no, you need at least 1000wRMS. i wouldn't give it any less than 1200wRMS.
