for daily driven?? i don't whant two 12s type r becuzz i think my t1s 1200watts hite harder then the 2 type r 12s now i was thinking of going with 3 10s =1500watts but most guys on here say stay with the t1s so i will just keep it the same for now but thanks for your input ROASTED

Hey, if you are happier with those T1s, more power to ya...

But I'd get the R's. Oh wait, I did! Mine arrive later this week. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

just wondering if they would shine a little more with some more power behind them,

 

but first I would try a new box before buying anything new

Ok i got a brand new American legacy "1200" watt amp last xmas before i knew anything about car audio and i havent used it yet casue my trucks wrecked.

Well i talked one of my friends into buying it for 200 dollars

Now i plan on getting A 12" 05 alpine type r ,and now since im selling my amp i need to know a good amp to get for it for 200 dollars any suggestions? I want to get as much power to my type r as possible for this price thanks

this prob should have been in amp section but i wasnt sure.

could you step up to a pair of 1k amps? they are RMS at 600, but it might be an insteresting approach, RF's are always known to be strong

 

(I am not sure how they will take 1k a piece)

i'd look for an used orion 1200d ,sumthin wit 1000w+

 

[SBLAZER]

yes they can if u get 2 dual 2s, but i'll get another 1 of those amps if u can and run 1 on each R15, the 15s love powa
