[QUOTE="shredder2, post: 8622349, member: 674047"] I agree with most everyone else... if you got the room and prefer a ported box... the Type R do really well. The coils might be somewhat overrated too as I've seen em pop with under rated wattage and a clean signal. W7?.. well look at one next to a Type R... it is in a different league for sure and the price (overpriced it may be) reflects that. IMHO the type R is not bad at all if you're willing to sacrifice some space. I saw a pair in a 6ft3 net tuned at 29hz on a SQ 2200 that sounded pretty ok... went nice and low and got nasty at the mid 30 range to mid 40hz too. But the W7 is a true small box sub... and it sounds balanced and loud if boxed correctly [/QUOTE]
