[QUOTE="Rezac, post: 3439629, member: 567261"] I hooked up my type r 10 and the it didn't get nearly as loud or play as filling of bass as the Icon did, the icon was only at half gains on the rf p1000bd, it almost seemed like the Type R was really hollow or something. I played Speaker Boxx by Outkast and the type r hit pretty well but it just didn't sound that great, (also, the type r is dual 4 ohm so I hooked it up at 2 ohms and turned the gain all the way up, the birthsheet says 825rms @ 2 ohms) then i swappedthe Icon back in and turned the amp down to about 3/4 of the way up (700 watts if the amp was not underrated, birthsheet says 1310 rms @ 1 ohm) and I put Speaker Boxx back in and I couldn't handle it, it was shaking everything in my car and making my eyes blurr and vibrate and it was making my face itch and my ears tingle a bit again. it was hitting crazy hard for a single 10 and it is not even broken in yet, the type r definitely has more play time on it then the Icon does.. Hope this helps some of you out there, I love the Icon. I will be buying more.. The only other sub that I have had that has done this to me is the 12W7 but I would have to say it doesn't sound as clean as this Icon 10. Oh, by the way, both subs were in a 1.25ft^3 ported box that is in the picture in the rides section in the 02 ***** Am. Thanks again SSA for an amazing product. [/QUOTE]
