Well i dont want 2 ses because i wanted to stay under 1000 watts rms (for the sake of my alternator) and that would get too expensive buying a 1200 watts rms amp and spending over 300 on the subs.
rob you must be a Type R fan. The SX is an SPL sub. RE told me that if I wanted SQ at all, to not go with this sub. People however, claim that it has some SQ. The type R is a SQ sub. Sounds about right that 1 SPL sub would sound just as loud as 2 SQ subs...the type R's will sound better though...
I agree with Rovin...the RE SE vs. type R are a better comparison.
too bad you have no clue about what your talking about...here's some testing...Well, as some of you may know, i now have a few subs in my possession. These subs are an seXXX, SX, and the newest addtion, a type-r. Now, i was a bit sceptical at first about the type-r, but after tonights scores i have no doubt that i will probably be using it for the rest of the season. So, without further ado, the scores.
SPL: in the kick, drivers door open SX: 147.0 seXXX: 148.7 type-r: 148.9 (after about 5 other burps/rollups, so my voltage was hurting)
Not only is the type-r louder, it handled the power (strapped nine.1's at .5 ohm a piece) better and just performed better
Driveby: meter 6 feet away from passenger door, 4.5 feet off the ground SX: no testing (wasn't worth testing because it SUCKED) seXXX: 122.0 type-r: 123.4
Once again, the type-r prevailed simply because of the fact that it was able to handle both amps for music. With the SX/seXXX i had to use one amp because they could not take the power.
Now don't get me wrong, I love RE, great products. But god d*mn, i'm beating their "best" street setup SPL sub with a $130 sub i got off ebay. I really don't know what to think now.
And for all the people who are going to bash me, i did test out multiple boxes for the SX and seXXX, and those were the best numbers they pulled. And, as a matter of fact, i just tossed the type-r in the box the seXXX did it's number in. So this may not even be the best box for the sub.
I will be geting an RE Sx 12. it will be a ported box tuned to 30hz. my friend has 2 type r's in a sealed box. any comments on who will hit harder. i have a scion tc and he has a ford 500.
So a 500 watt SQ-SQL sub (type R) is louder than a 1000 watt SQL-SPL sub (SX)? Makes no sense. Maybe 2 type R's...but not 1. I will be getting a SX15 soon, and I'm going to port it in a 3 cubic foot box tuned to 30Hz. I will be running an RE 12.1 amp. My best friend has 2 Type R's in a ported box powered by a JL 1000/1. Once I get my stuff set-up, I'll let you know whats louder, but my money is on the SX.
i dont believe it at all... 1, your saying u had 2 ed nines at .5 ohms on that type R?... thats like 4000w rms isnt it? there is no way a type R can handle that. and i just dont see 1 type R being louder than 1 SX.... your gonna need proof.
Stackable - TWICE the power. The NINe.1 is stackable without the use of a external module. Stacking 2 NINe.1's is a easy way to get 2500+ watts @2ohm Mono.
so my ? is how were you able to run 2 of them at .5 ohms a piece?
