get type X or keep RL-P

1000 watts rms, 2 cubes @ 28 hz....both subs with this setup, is the rl-p going to be louder due to higher sensitivity? I want better LOWS, which I read the type X is amazing at, but with the same power and box, will a higher sensitivity sub do better?

my RL-p gets plenty loud on the lows,

 

it is not peaky, but fairly linear across the range, so I vote keep the RL-p

There was a great review done comparing both. From what I remember the guy said the RLP was the most accurate music reproducing driver he has ever tested. The Type X was close but it did get louder at lower frenquency ranges. I dont remember SPL wise though. I would get the RLP though I think its louder in general, Ive heard a Type X. And not many people own RLPs

if your not happy with the rl-ps , put them on a shelf buy somes xes and try em, if theyre better sell the rl-ps , if theyre not better sell the xes.
