Currently have a orion cobalt CS12D, while it performs quite well for its age, I was wondering if a Alpine Type E would sound any better? It would be paired up with a Type R.

get another type r. thre only like 15-20 dollars more than the type e. that would probably be your best bet.
id go with another dual 2 ohm type r if i were you. but if your set on getting the cobalt or the type e id go with the type e. but thats just my opinion, go with what you like.
I already have the cobalt, was just wondering if a Type E would perform better, I cant afford another Type R at the moment and dont really feel like spending over $100 on another sub.

ohhhh ok. my bad, i misread what you were saying then. i thought you were buying another. whats the model # on the cobalt?
Thanks Jeff, Someone told me that before but Noone ever went into detail why. I dont see why it would make a difference though.
Rob, The model is CS12D

i think youll be fine since they both are DVC and the cobalt is 200 rms and the type r is 300 rms. if you forund a descent 500 watt amp they should be fine. they might sound a little different but i dont think it will be enough to actually hear all that well. and that way youll be overpowering the cobalt by 50 and underpowering the type r by 50. you should stll reach full excursion with the type r. *i could be wrong but i think theyd be fine togeather.
