[QUOTE="AllenH427, post: 6899016, member: 610080"] Hard telling, I think it's a pretty safe bet that the Type Rs will get louder than the Rainbows. You just have to weigh the pros and cons, having both and hearing rainbows over 100 times now I'll lay it out for you. Type Rs -Cheaper -Louder -Still sound pretty decent Type Xs -A little more pricey -Still get loud, just not like the Type Rs -Sound better than the Type Rs In your case, with your amp, the Type Xs are more expensive and the tweeters are fairly wimpy and I wouldn't take the risk giving them that much power. Now the Type Rs are cheaper, they'll love that much power, they'll get really loud and still sound pretty decent. I'd roll with the Type Rs. Best thing to do is try to find a local shop with Type Xs and Type Rs, see which sound you like better, both have a little different sound but usually people would prefer the warm sound the Type Xs deliver.
