Hey im trying to upgrade the OEM factory Alpine setup in a 2000 Viper GTS ACR.
I am thinking to retain the "Factory Alpine" presence in the car except with today's technology.
I've had amplified type X 6.5" component speakers before on an alpine 4 channel but wasn't anything to write home about and the type X didn't take much abuse before cracking the speakers.
I've "heard" the type R withstand more abuse is this true?
The car has four 6.5" speakers with factory component speakers in the two front doors and an alpine factor amp in the trunk.
I was debating starting with either two coaxial type s in the rear and component type s in the front. Would I see a substantial difference going for type R's? Is there a better bang for my buck on 6.5" these days if I decide to ditch the alpine theme?
Not looking to enter car stereo comps or anything but the OEM speakers are literally dry rotted and have fell apart at this point.
