2 10" type r or 1 12" type x??

[yowhobedat 10+ year member]

i have a genesis coupe, and the trunk it kinda tight. I can fit either 2 10" type r's or 1 12" type x. I want a sealed enclosure, i basically want clean loud tight bass. Which would sound better and louder? I don't want ported, don't have room for it, only sealed.

I would do the 2 Type Rs.

Depending which subs I get will depend on what amp I buy. Either a 1200 rms or 1000 rms amp.

So u think 2 type rs 10" would sound louder n better then a 12" type x? The type rs would b getin 200 more watts rms

I had to put about 1k on each when i had my pair

Type x is rated for 1000 rms. Type r is rated 600 rms. Wouldn't I blow the type r if I put 1k rms to each sub.

is alpine your only option, or just your preference?

 

[yowhobedat 10+ year member]

i have around 300-350 to spend on subs. And everyone recommended the alpine type r's. do u have any suggestions? im looking for around 1200 rms, 10" thats going in a sealed enclosure.

i'll go with one 12" sub if it's loud and clean.
