300 isnt enough for type R's...they want more. Minimum 375....

well i was runnin two type R's in a sealed inclosure and all i had was 300 max going to each sub at the time and they were hittin preaty dam hard for such a little amount.. so i dont know.. but i would definatly recommend giving them more around 400 rms a peice because they can hit really hard if you give them close to 1000 watts maxx....

The min amout to give them is 300RMS, but power handling depends on the box. I would shoot them 400RMS each, they are pretty power hungry. So if you want to power two of them I would look into getting some other amps.

I'm giving mine around 700-750W, but I wouldn't recommend it for the beginner.

2-2.25net, 20-25sq" tuned to 34hz.

I know 10 people that have type r's and all have had problems with them within 3-4 mo.

Just kidding. What causes the surround to come apart from the cone? I saw a guy returning his r's to circuit city for this reason.

Most likely over-excursion.
