Bro you cant even compare a Type R to a MT or XXX.
Get a 12" MT if you're going that route, for pure output
If you want some good quality, get the XXX, it'll destroy a 15" Type R in output even then, if you ask me. Not to mention it'd **** the R in SQ
i know what you are talking about...but the whole "bandwagon" thing got me. If mark is saying i will hit even a 45 w/ one 15 (type r)...why even attempt to get a 12" mt to...i need like 4x the power i have, which means alternator, and definetly an extra batt or 2.
i relaly really really want to get an MT (i'm an spl guy) but the whole power thing is really straying me away from it. I have a bx1605d (hifonics) right now and from what I hear, you need like at least 2.5kw rms. I can't push that much power...it's just bad math
type r = 200
tcab=300
thats 500 dollars
mt=250 (lets say i got a deal...benefit of the doubt)
ia 20.1 or orion 2500d = about 300 used
new alty=200 (excessive amperage)
box=maybe 50 dollars plus about 5 hrs labor
thats 800 dollars to hit around the same score..and the type r should be more musical. and i stil have to experiment w/ boxes...w/ marks box i just throw it in.
i'm kinda a lazy guy i guess
i duno...to me thats bad math...i just don't have that much money.
oh, and sorry I don't want this to turn into a type r thread //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
I wasn't comparing alpine/re...i was just trying to decide which is more cost effecient for the number put up
