Type-R numbers (EXCLUDING TCAB BOXES)

ps: that picture thread was in the lounge //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
so all the type R spam needs to be directed to the lounge? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

 
there is no need to be jealous because you don't know how to use a camera //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif . notice i haven't made a thread beyond that one since i came back, and i only post maybe 3x a day, not 20. so if anything, you're exactly why i left, and why i continually dont come back much like the other people that have gone. you assume something is the same when it is not. look around and get back at me.

why am i frustrated? because people incessantly ***** about me starting dramatic threads, but then those same people turn around and do the same thing. let's see,

type r thread: check

tcab reference: check

comparison thread: check

all this thread is (which is far from legitimate, let alone there is already a type r thread) an attempt to get a rise out of the forum, nothing more. the type r is old news, everyone knows and people still make a huge deal about it. what i'm trying to do is let this place go back to where it was BEFORE the type r drama. i'm not pointing blame at potts or tommy as i respect their knowledge very much, i'm angry at the people that buy mark's products and proclaim the virgin mary lives inside their box and create needless drama. what do you want me to do? i left as i felt that is what was needed. i returned, and the place was worse. obviously, the problem isn't me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

maybe you just can't see that, which is fine, but don't start blaming me for everyp problem this place has especially since i'm only on here to check the HT forum and my PM box. i will not argue anymore, and anyone who does try to spark a debate with me is just too immature to have anything else to do.

no, i didn't say that. what needs to happen is people need to realize this there is already an ENTIRE thread devoted to this single driver. use it.

You know as well as I that something posted in that thread will get LOST in that thread.

By responding to the "bs post"... you are only contributing to the BS, FYI... as am I =)

i understand that, but people start threads about ending the type r hype, which are right next to new type r threads. why don't we go back to merging the type r threads? or better yet, i won't even bother looking anymore and i'll just let people ***** and moan about the type r threads and send pms to me about how stupid i am even though i haven't been online a since a week before the pm was sent //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

 
uhhh.....lemans loves teh cawk. and as far as using one thread, RE has a whole **** boatload of topics, as does oooh....THE MT ITSELF
I personally do not understand the whole anti type-r bandwagon. I could by all means agree with people becoming angry about threads with questions being repeated over and over. However, it seems as though when someone as little as mentions the type-r, people jump all over them.

I say get over it.

i'm not part of any bandwagon as i don't give enough of a shit to care. i AM part of the stfu and stop ruining things movement. the driver is just as praised as it is tarnished. all i try to do is neutralize both, btu then you have threads like these that are not for praising the type r, but for shunning tcab. tell me what the purpose TRULY was of this thread then.

 
In all fairness, I don't think the thread itself was started for the sake of drama. More or less, just a comparison to see how any given enclosure design made with an average or decent build quality would compare to a TCAB.

More or less a "Will the box I make myself for $40 be as loud as the one sold for several hundred?" kind of thread.

And the answer to that? No. Of course not. If you have to ask, I'm willing to bet your skills in box crafting are not good enough to push the big numbers like a TCAB. Does this mean your boxes are bad? No. Is a box that does 135 bad? No. How about 130? No. 120? Obviously noone who's been near even a cheap Radio Shack meter gets how loud 120dB of music is when you're driving down a road. It's loud. Rear view mirrors become useless, your dash can shake itself loose, driving itself becomes a royal b*tch at 50hz/120dB.

Different users, different needs, different applications. Do you like how a TCAB sounds? Buy one! Thanks to my complaining, Spkrman offers them in Oak or Maple of you pay extra. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif If you're not that rich, team Pwnage makes hellishly loud boxes, too! If you're cheaper than that, have team Pwnage or Jmac or any other expert box designer here simply design one and build it yourself. If you can't afford that, there are free box designers floating around here. But don't think just because TCAB is the flavor of the month that it will explicitly outperform anything like it. That's what leads into these debates with flaming and stuff.

This is all pretty logical. All argument aside, I think if the thread starter had worded it differently it would have saved us a little hassle.

i don't know if you are trying to agree with me, but that is what i'm talking about. they know what they are doing, and it is known others can do just fine without them. why make a 20th thread on it?

Fairly well said //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif. If someone wants to build their own box, thats perfectly fine with me. I sell the skills of someone highly experienced and knowledgable in box design and construction, at least thats how I see it.

I never started any outlandish claims, leave that to the haters //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Btw, I'm still waiting on you to order that oak/maple box lmao //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

This thread, btw, I think wasn't made to dis TCAB... but to get an idea of what people outside of TCAB were doing with the woofs. Looks more like a "is the type R really that good" thread.
