What's with all the RE hatin' lately??

I cant wait until alpine changes the design and they all loose their precious R.
Give it another month. SBLAZER will find a new sub to give a handjob to.

It's pretty comical to watch, actually. Any sub he owns becomes the new best sub of all times and is undefeatable in any and all applications.

 
you realize that if you keep buying the Type R's like ya'll are right now you will lose the price argument. They will inevitably raise the price for a driver selling that well, what then will you use as your crutch argument?

not everyone is buying, if they want an R, they will get 1. and desnt mean we cant still get em for the same price, now does it??

i mean people dont buy, for the main reason they dont wanna go wit the hype or get on the loud wagon. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

 
hmmm so a woofer is only good cause of its number it hits in spl? not that i am gonna say too much but in sq dialed like that its not very good. people use the words "sounds good" way to loosely. the whole concept of sq in a car as a challenge is to get home audio type sound and stage from a car not "hey i hit a 150 db and i cant hear my mids or highs so that means my woofers pwn you" in iasca there were guys who thought that way at alot of shows. people would get like a 34 out of 200+ points possible on sq and get a 6 on the rta portion (lol yes a 6). about everyone of them complained about the contest not "being right" its not that the contest was wrong so much as the people who did bad had no idea wtf they were doing. was pretty funny the judges would point them over to the spl part or hand them the iasca rule book and tell them to read it lol. was pretty funny. for the woofer to be good or best for you people need to realize what priority they are putting on the sub. what they like as far as sound (not what looks cool) and go from there. if you want to compete look at the orginizations see whats relitively close look at the classes and go from there. if you are serious plainly put you build it for the org you are going into because in each org the classes are very different. some orgs let you run 18 v and allow modded amps in "stockish" classes while others let you run anysized amp you want to run just have to read the rules

 
Nobody "hates" on RE, they have their place just like any other company.
Some people have just discovered that something works better for them that just so happens to be cheaper.

Is that going to hold true for everyone? No. But some people are willing to try new things rather than base their decisions on what a few people on an online forum said about a sub that they have no experience with.
//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif this is probally one of the best answers....

 
if alpine changes it design and comes wit sumthin better, and its louder and then new sub goes in, if not, then will continue 2 run the 05 Rs.

and squeak i do it juss 2 have u comment about it. wha sub should i boner next, **** sure wont be RE. maybe MD audio? u'll juss have 2 wait and see. if its louder, u kno im gettin out the lotion //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rotflol.gif.b453361716769b8110ddefc85ff03cd2.gif

 
To SBLAZER's defense, don't dish it if you can't take it. Type-R is not an overhyped peice of crap, and neither is the RL-P.

They both do very well at what they are intended for. The Type-R is for that SPL nut who needs atleast some SQ to be happy.. and the RL-P is for that SQ guy who enjoys some extra bump sometimes, nuff said. To compare them any further is pointless.

However, comparing the Type-R to the SX is fair game... they both have pretty much the same purpose. If you can drop the Type-R into the same box as the SX and put up bigger numbers at lower notes, then I must say Type-R > SX.

 
Ive never heard either- yet somehow have formed an opinion about both.
X2

Actually I just came back from Best Buy, they had their usual line of subs for demo-ing. Oddly enough, the rebadged Durabrand subs are noticably more efficient than Type Rs. At least in all the pretty prefab boxes and RF amps, they had more output at moderate volume. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

 
audiolife, great job. like we've been sayin be4, the R works best for the org we compete in (MECA) and works awesome daily also. we've gave other subs a chance and they juss suckd in our app. not sayin teh sub sux as awhole, but it juss **** in our app. we tried it in diff app and it sucked there also. doesnt say anything bout the sub, some may like it some dont, thats for u 2 determine. but i juss like 2 sarcastic about it 2 mess wit people like squack and frost. i dont care wha they think. but i do have my opinion about them and from that, i juss think it didnt perform well.

 
blah blah blah, I'm an idiot and just play follow-the-leader behind Tommy and Mark. Without them, I would be more worthless than I am now. And I'm so ignorant and arrogant, that whatever sub I'm presently using is the best ever.
That's all I got out of your post.

exactly:) juss face it. might not work for everyone, but in a low tuned box and u did a direct swap, they R might come out ahead. thats wha happen in my install and some of my teammates.

 
That's all I got out of your post.
thats all expect u 2 get, dont care. tell someone who cares. follow the leader, how? i have my own install and did testin on my car how is that follow the leader. called testing other woofer out and see wha works best for u. if the r would of sucked in my install, i'd be runnin sumthin else. they dont work for everyone dumbass. get a clue
