I heard a 12 in type r in a pre fabbed ported enclosure ay best buy and it really slammed compared to the other setups they had in the store. How much are you guys buying the new type r's for? and whatsize you have? I've seen 12 inch type r's for about 125 on ebay but i dont know if i could get myself to buy a sub off of ebay.

 

[SBLAZER]

buying off ebay is ok, i bought mine from there. aslong as the seller is known and has great feedback,powerseller, its coo.

it has taken QUITE a while to get mine from ebay. but you have to understand we have had a hurricane the size of lemans' sister come through. they claim to have attempted delivery TWICE so they marked it "return to sender". now i had to get a fedex account number and all that crap to have it sent back. the guy im dealin with is awesome, he does nothing but help settle things. expressbuy123 is the store. 2 12's for 239.40 shipped.

LOL in no way am i disowning the X series, but im just stating that the R has more going for it than the X does, umm #1: the R costs less, #2: the R is louder in my opinion, #3 the R: requires less power to "GET R' DONE) #4: sensitivity is slighty higher, #5 the mags look way better than the X, #6 in relation to #1 you can get 2 for the price of one X on ebay!! lol , if this is not enuff reason , i dont know what is...and yes i think the X is a great sub, but i still think the lil bro gets the girlfriend herre...piece

I got my 2 Type R 12's for $177 plus shipping. I think it was a total of under $225 shipped to my house

All the points you make are valid. But I think the X would have one very distinct advantage. SQ

Type R's sealed.

I have another type R on its way, was going to put it back in the ported box, but now this is sayign that sealed pounds too, what would be louder/spl 1-15" ported, or 2 12's sealed?

Danka.

Its going in a Ford Sport Trac.

 

[AndonD454 10+ year member]

id do the 15 ported.

and to add to the thread ive had my Rs for abotu a week now and i love em. accurate, pretty crisp, and shake the shit out of my car when i want em to.

im also very surprised at the LFE. box is tuned to 33 hz and it has awesome low end output into the upper 20s.

no need to put 800-1000 rms to each, 5-600 does PLENTY, but i wish i could get my amp to put out rated power+ more so i could hear the difference.

what kinda whip u got? it just depends , i would personally do 1 15" ported to 28Hz, in a 3.5 or 4.0 cu box, with about 1500W RMS
