Subs with good SQ?

[nitzelnator]

Hey,

I'm new to Car Audio and i'm looking to put some subs into my 96 VW Golf. What do you recommend? So far i've been looking at the alpines and infinitys. What is the difference between type R and type S subs?

both are good subs the infinities are better for sound quality i think never work with them directly as for the alpines the difference between r and s besides the price is power handling and construction that is about it.

I have owned both type s and type r and I loved them both. The type r subs can handle way more power. I own a 15 type r and it takes 1500 peak. I started competing last year and this year i am moving up to iasca sound Q. I still reccomend the type s over jl wo's or anything, it's tough Infinity's have a great sound but so does alpine, type s i would even reccomend for sq.

I own two type R 12" subs. I love them. i got a piece of crap sony amp pumping the juice and boy do they hit. I'm only sending about 190W to each of them. I'm gonna upgrade the amp, when i do that they'll sound even better and hit even harder.
