well then i am doing something wrong or the sub i got is messed up...

sounds like the sub is blown, you reversed the polarity, or the ohm loads are different, but somethin is definitly wrong there

check the ohms of your coils with your dmm to see if a coil is blown..

Different woofers like different setups. If you just drag & dropped one sub for the other you could be looking at an unsealed gasket (it happens a lot), wrong box size, lousy tuning, etc etc etc.

If you were running sealed, what you quoted could be possible. CVRs take to sealed like fish to water. Type Rs not so much.

i dont think thats true at all. type r's are great in sealed boxes. tahts what there for there not spl subs by any means. i had mine sealed and it sounded beautiful, but i cant compare it to much.

Type R are not an SPL sub? OK.........
