Type R for output, Type X for quality.

e1 is going to say type r, but from the install I've heard I'm gonna say type x... if you've got the $. Either setup will get pretty dam loud in most vehicles. I just prefer the sq of the x.

The 12s will obviously be louder.

What vehicles are thy going in?

2 type R's //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

If your more interested in sound quality and want to pay the premium for em... 2 type X's will work fine too.

2 type r's will be louder than 2 type x's and will sound very good... not as good as the X but good enough

Get the R's. They perform @ the Type X's level for $100 less.

as everyone else has said x for sq r for sql

 

[Spkrman]

not to understate the type X....

As far as SQ is concerned, man o man do those things sound good. Transient response is just amazing, and they have superb extension. I really like how they sound. If I wasnt competing, 2 12's, my orion... and I'd call it a day //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I should also add... in my hands those X's would still be doing ~148 in the blazer.

Well since I am getting more and more into the sq side of things, I would do the x's off the 2500 orion. Some bad *** subs. The r's will get loud and sound decent as well. So is just gonna be up too you what you would want. SQ or more SPL.
