They will both be pushed by a MB Quart RAA1000
Currently I have the two types r's and was wonder if this upgrade would make that much of a difference....i'm looking for both sq and spl....but i think i want a lil more spl......thanks

the w6v2's will sound better but will not get as loud, since u mainly want spl, look into sx, titanics,etc

is that mb quart amp stable at 1ohm? what are the power ratings on that? The w6's ported will be much louder then the type r's and sound much better at the same time. the type r's are more comparable to the w3's.

you will be very very happy with 2 13w6's in HO boxes on a 1000/1:-)

i'd say your amp would work fine and sound goood also...the JL amp will be better be ideal for those 13w6v2s, but it would be pretty spendy

no your current amp will work just fine sorry about that man. Deff use what you have before you go buy something else that will do the same job.

the w6v2 would be louder than type R's i've heard both in vehicles compared to each other and the w6v2 are louder and sound better if you ask me thats not even a comparison.

I agree completely! I personally dont think the type r's are anything more then a decent avg level sub.

Do they make a H.O. box for 2 13W6v2? Just wondering because i cant find any.....or would it be just as good buying 2 12W6v2..(looking for spl).....although they would be overpowered.....Thanks
