What do you guys think, are the old Alpine Type R's that bad? the 1's that handle 1000(peak)watts... and all this jazz about the new alpine type r's.... if you could either get 2 alpine type r's or 2 Power Acoustik MOFOS what would you get? (also the not as good modles FUBAR. ANF FUBR)

I would get MOFO's those old alpines suck. Poweracoustik is not the best brand but you will boom.

hey Kyle and R.I.P. go to www.cardomain.com and read the customer reviews. THey may not be as loud but they should hit deeper because thay are port only speakers, people say MOFOs suck because they stupidly put hem in sealed boxes and blow them.

so the sx is louder and has better sq, the sx is more durable, and it doesnt need as many watts? yeah, plus the mofo is close to the sx price. sounds like the sx wins hands down. all the car audio experts wouldnt say they arent ne good if they were good. if you want something that gets real loud get something from kicker or like an mt or mx or xxx.

Thats true Kyle. I wish we could all own shops so we could just test equipment at liezure. R.I.P. some times you cant trust audio experts. how many times has a movie critic shot down a movie that you really liked. Speakers are like cigarettes everybody has there own brand. You just have to get what you like

i wouldnt go w/ the fubar iv heard them b4 they arent very loud, if you really want to go with a cheap brand get a poweracoustik fx, a guy i no has 2 in a jeep and he hit like 155 db, he has the record for his class in south carolina

kyle i hav heard sum cheaper brands and im tellin you the fx is louder than a fubar, the south carolina record holder for his class has 2 fx's and hit 155. and a mofo is louder than a fx. thats if u want 2 use sum crappy brand, but if u really want spl get sumthing kicker or re, www.reaudio.com www.kicker.com and if u insist on getting a cheap sub www.interiortechnology.net chris doesn't even normally sell the stuff for the price on his website, he'll go a lil lower sometimes.

sorry to jump in here but theres kids at my school with power acoustic subs and they are horrible. not loud at all and no sq. its sad. two type Rs or 1 re sx would be good choices. make sure you get a nice amp to power them.
