They don't "respond" faster, contrary to what you've heard.

One of the main reasons is space. It's easier to mount a few 8'' than 1 15'' under seats and in other small areas.

would RE 8s still get loud and sound good compared to 12"s alpine type Rs in particular

that's a hell of a difference in cone area...tough for the 8's to keep up...based strictly on what you said, then no.

A lot of it's in the install, though...so perhaps by tweaking things differently, you can.

what if you had 4-6 8s and two type Rs

In the right install the RE8s would make the Type Rs cry.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryexcited.gif.c26a15f316d23068607f36ddacd7a7ab.gif

in the ideal install, would the 8's play as low?
