sealed type r's

my two sealed 12'' Rs are fine for me. plenty of bass. if i ever upgraded it would be to 15'' FI Qs and i would lose all trunk space and have to spend more then i want on electrical upgrades... The Rs pound plenty loud 600w each 2 12'' sealed. loudest out of my friends and the guys at work not that that is saying anything but in my small world i'm the loudest. ohh and i won an award for best system at some place...

but you fail at thread making..................because what the hell does sound quality have to do wwith loudness? I've said they **** sealed many times..........because they do. They sound like complete ***....but that has nothing to do with getting loud, so pay attention when grown folks talk

Since Type R's aren't ever going to have a semblance of sounding realistic, you might as well port them...no real benefit in sealing them at all.

I'll agree that they sound like shit, and I'm a fartbox type of guy.

I have four 12" Type-R's just sitting around collecting dust, I probably should throw them into a install soon or just sell them.

But no way in hell would I seal them.

i would port them if i had the room. i have room for 2 sealed or 1 ported. tried a few different ways and 2 sealed is louder than 1 ported. trying to decide what to replace them with. i'm gonna go with 1 12 ported on my ppi pc2350. somewhere around 1400 watts. hard decision.
