[QUOTE="Car Trekker, post: 1076702, member: 552485"] You can do a lot better than type R's for that kind of cash. They have a decent sound, but they're way less efficient than a lot of other brands, and that bumps the price of your system way up, to try to power them. They need about 1.75 ft net each to port em, and have a good 3-5 dB less (that means they need 2-3 times the power) than something like an ID, JL, or the like. If you want to stay with a Japanese branded sub, check out the Pioneer SPL-3004. I just built one in their recommended bandpass box, and it's freakin loud and low! 1 would easily keep up with 2 or 3 type R's, in 1/2 the space.....4 would make ya puke. [/QUOTE]
