[QUOTE="Spkrman, post: 1110428, member: 548682"] btw i'd like to add a story of me blowing a type R.... I ran a type R 12 off a viper 2500d for a few weeks no problem... we are talkin alot of full tilt music, and one time doing a full tilt burp and holding it for 20 seconds. Played great. Same sub held up to an autotek mm4000 - smoked after I botched a burp and played 50hz with the ports plugged (MUCH more excursion and that was that). Ran my other R on a pair of memphis 1000d's a week or so after that. In *initial* testing I smoked the woof. Why? Because the amps weren't as loud as I thought they would be and I kept crankin up the volume too high, clipping the shyte out of the woof. It smoked easily on that setup. The R relies heavy on its cooling system to work... hell, it only has a 2" coil!?!? Once you screw up the cooling operation, it handles about as much as a typical 2" coil... which isn't much.
