GranteedEV Audioholic Ninja Jul 14, 2009 4,945 0 113 Calgary, Canada Nov 15, 2010 #392 The RBH is this one actually And yes, a ported design with 2000w of power, with a sub-tuning frequency high pass filter at least will be beastly. Not for adding extention like a sealed sub, but for excess headroom and output. Those TC sounds and CSS drivers that Funk uses love power and can take tons of it. What they lack in sensitivity, they make up in ridiculous low frequency extension and crazy linearity... barely any distortion just like the rythmik, except loud! Reactions: KEW

Primarily the Tempest X-2 (since there is only ~$15 in price difference). One of the things that I like about Kevin is that he actually posts some enclosures that you can build right away. I really wish TC Sounds would do likewise.

Warpdrv Audioholic Ninja Dec 13, 2006 4,260 0 0 @ Milwaukee, WI Nov 16, 2010 #396 My experience is of comparison between the 18" Mal-X and the 18" LMS's, TC-2000 and TC-3000/Axis motor, and JL F112 - and now a Submersive HP. The Linear motor tech is def worth hearing IMO... And IMO a step above the rest. One can easily come up with a design for a box to suit the different needs you may have.... Its not that big a deal to design a box...

I believe... Fwiw...those prices are in line with some of the higher end Svs or Axiom offerings sold here in Canada!
