1? or the pair?

 

[y2kbugger 10+ year member]

what did i say that was dumb? I just assumed crutchfield was always overpriced. these speaksers are 240 at the local best buy, so why does crutchfield have the lowest prices i could find?

 

[y2kbugger 10+ year member]

both those prices are for a single woofer.

there old type R's are going on clearance to make way for the new ones

"there old type R's are going on clearance to make way for the new ones "

makes sense, the new ones are almost twice the $, can't be that much better right?(not that i am considering it any way, there are better subs for $200

ohh and in the reviews there I found a setup i think i want to use:

"I had two of these bad boys powered by my flux capacitator and let me tell you..they are CRAZY LOUD! I suggest these subs to anyone..but beware these subs contain LOTS of DB's."

I have a spare Flux-Cap layin in my garage, you think it can really release all the DB's contained it these subs like the review suggests?

I think that's a pretty good price.

I just ordered the 10" for $99 shipped. I thought it was a pretty decent deal. Better than my 300 watt kenwood. Now i just need an amp to power that type r.

the mid/earlyish 2000's type R's were the best i think...... even had 2 spiders, pretty sure the ribbed surrounded ones dont

 

[Rock krusher 10+ year member]

The newer ones with ribbed surrounds also have 2 spiders. They r spaced apart by the mounting ring.

Meh...they aint worth spending $150+ on for the 12s...the 15s MAYBE...but not the 12s

Cheaper on ebay. I spent about $155 for my 2 12" 4ohm type rs. One off of ebay for $75 and one off of craigslist with a dual sub box for $80. Box needs replaced...BUT it works for now.
