I like the Type R's better... they are clean, tight, loud and hit. The JL w3v2 is a good sub, it just dosen't seem to be as loud or hit as good.

My friend had an Alpine Type R 12, then blew it and replaced it w/ a Jl 12w3 and immediately wanted to switch back. IMO JL's subs are garbage if they aren't a w7.

The alpine sub isnt much better flash.were talking about 2 middle of the road subs here.My point u ask...i wouldnt say the 10w3 is garbage.

w3v2d2 owns a type r, but the type r is a good woofer

The Type R's shouldn't really even be put up agenst a w3v2, they are not in the same class. It can easily hold it's own agesnt the w6v2. I was looking to get the w6v2's but changed my mind after hearing them compaired to the Type R's. The R's are an all around good sub, clean, loud, and it hits. Plus for the price you can get it online makes it much much much better.

whata comment.....

a w6v2 would destroy a type r.... i really thinkg whatever w6v2 you've heard wasn't setup correctly or powered right.

i have two 12 w3v2-d2s and ive heard the r's

go with the jls.....trust me

youll come across a lot of jl haters on here but f@#$ um

then again its your choice not ours

You also come across alot of Alpine haters. I don't hate JL audio, they make some good subs... the W7, but anything other then that is not that great espicall for the price. Let me put it this way, almost everything I hear is in custom boxes made just right for the sub with an amp that will give it the watts that it wants. The w6v2 is a good sub, but the Type R is right there with it, most people that post on here have never heard most of the subs that they talk about. They are both clean, both loud, both hit... but the w6v2 is way overpriced.
