R's arent made for competing, I am sure they are loud daily subs, but its kind of like making a EK civic able to run 10's. You can do it, but its not as reliable, and its not made for serious abuse. Can you recone a Type-R or L7 in the field???? No way. Most people that choose RE and DD, do it for serviceability, and for the fact that they are shearly powerful. Granted most is in the install but I am pretty sure 1 MT > 2 Type R's 12 for 12, watt for watt. I am sure the R's are really efficent, they have to be the way the guys dick ride them, but just becuase you can burp them at 2500-3000 watts and get loud doesnt mean they can take 3000 all day. We dont hate R's we just hate how yall continually try to inform us that they are the end all answer to all subs. Or the fact yall assume we just choose RE to be fan boys. I have no doubt in my mind they're a good piece of equipment, but you cant compare a 500HP civic to a F1 car, they're just different.B campbell wha kinda setup do u have? i mean for his power the L7s would be louder in everyway. juss cuz they are MTs dont mean sh!t.D5000 on a pair of L715 vs the 18MT wit 1 d5000. Mt arent bad subs, but i dont think 2 18Mt vs 4 15 would compare. u can get stupid loud wit the Rs or L7s. i bet the R or L7 would do more wit the power. i have yet to hear a loud MT setup that doesnt have 20kw. and not peakin @50+hz im not A RE hater, juss like to get more for my $$ thats all
u kno wha my vote is and where i stand. get more for ya money
Check my sig for my set up. I have yet to install it, but once its in you will be impressed...
O yeah and the MT 18'' is not 1,000 dollars dude, thats the XXX. I would never pay that for a sub either, unless it was the DD Z series or something inhumanly insane like that. If the MT is still louder than the XXX there is no way I would run one due to the price tag, but thats just me.
