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.

DO IT!! youll get addicted!

compared to ported, the type R just didn't do it sealed.

Compared better sealed box woofers (the RE SE) the type R didnt do it sealed //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

thats just IMO, i never put a number on it.

Wow, I didn't know with all of the talk about these subs, that they are so inexpensive. What size ported box are you guys running these in. Anyone with 1 ported 12? Will these take 600 wrms?

Will they take 600 rms? Hell yeah they will. People are throwing 1200 rms, but im sure 800 is far more enough for them.

My 2 R 12's are going in a 3.2 cube net ported enclosure

which a/c mic?180? try it on the termlab or the 190, that'll be a diff story.

its 4 dbs down from the termlab. We have used both mics at the shows in comparison at my friends local db drags. I have yet to try the tremlab as it is at the other shop and lets just say I owe that guy money lol! Still almost 140 isnt bad for 2 off 1000watts. Besides my old ears cant take it anymore plus I listen to alot of rock. Pece!
