[QUOTE="danieldl, post: 6946452, member: 617903"] I did it before but... I burned 2 Type-Rs too. One thing I've seen... My amp is 1000W either at 2 or 4 ohms. The 2 SWR-10x2D I had were different impedance. One dual 4 wired at 2 ohms. It lasted for about 6 months but there were always a really bad smell in the car. The other one, dual 2 ohms wired at 4 ohms, didn't give me any bad smell at all or anything and I've sold it working right after 8 months of use. Is it really better to take a DVC 2+2 wired at 4 ohms? Considering I really don't think I will add another sub in my setup anyway. Maybe I just got a bad unit for the DVC 4+4 that broke after a few months. By the way, the new Type-R is rated at 600W instead of 500, anyone know if it can handle more easily the 1000W of a PDX than the previous gen? If it's as underrated as it was... I would really like to try a 12" last gen Type-R but I don't want to burn it with my PDX 1000 like I did with one of my last Type-R. [/QUOTE]
