Ed K ares much better for about the same price as the R's. Id definetly get the K's. http://www.edesignaudio.com Also with the K's u can port them for even more SPL. while Type R's wont sound too good ported theyr ment for sealed applications.

The K's will have better SQ than the R's and get louder.

For SQ also u can lookk at adire audio shivas http://www.adireaudio.com Looks like a plain sub but anyone whos used them says theyr awesome.

I've installed both, owned the Perfects (4 of them) and the Shiva blows them away in both SQ and SPL.

Ported Tuned low like 30hz would be awesome. wire it to the JBL 600.1 to a 1 ohm load for 300+ watts a peice.

do the K's come in DVC 2 ohm ? if so get these rather than the DVC 4 ohms so u can wire it parallel for a 2 ohm load. id rather run the JBL at 2 ohms than 1 ohm even though it is stable at 1 ohm. it does the same power at 2 ohm and 1 ohm as well

the ks come in SVC 4 Ohm and DVC 4 ohm

get 2 svc 4 ohm. that will give u a 2 ohm load and 600 watts.
