[QUOTE="jiggy2dmax, post: 2379062, member: 555720"] Personally I think your expectations were too high and that's why you were disappointed. Type R's are nice subs for the money, with a emaphasis on the latter part of the sentence. They can get loud with the right box as with many other subs. I'd say experiment with a few boxes, and if it doesn;t fit your need, sell it and find something that does. You could prolly get a L5/L7 for not to much more than than a Type R. Get a 12, port it, and it should get loud enough for you off 1500+watts. SQ will be acceptable in the right enclosure. Im sure there are other subs that fit you bill but I can only speak of the ones I have heard/used personally. [/QUOTE]
