Silver Member Username: HondariderGlidden, Iowa U.S. Post Number: 102 Registered: Sep-05 | 150wrms isnt that much different. So are you saying a type r will be louder? And which wold sound better? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Gavbo211US Post Number: 81 Registered: Jan-05 | thats 500wrms for one type R and 350 for 2 re. which means 2 type R's is 1000wrms. and 650wrms is a big difference. id go with type R if u can afford an amp to power them. |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1344 Registered: Jul-05 | going by the numbers it'll take close to 3 REs to make up the wattage of a R when u could have simply bought a single sub & give it the proper rec ported box . btw : a Re = $69 , a R = $ 115 both + s/h . When u pop the trunk ppl will go like "Sh!t , only 1 sub is doing that !" - lol |

Silver Member Username: HondariderGlidden, Iowa U.S. Post Number: 104 Registered: Sep-05 | How about sound quality? Does anyone know if a orion 600 wrms would be good amp for that type r if i go that route? |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 1345 Registered: Jul-05 | I've been reviews on it all over the net & i can't find a single bad review - so i myself am planning on getting 2 12s type R . As u can see both of these Amps are same exact specs/price (only the ohms @ 600wrms are different) - just 2 give u a choice . http://sonicelectronix.com/item_717.html http://sonicelectronix.com/item_3733.html If u are only doing 1 type R with the Orion then u need the dual 2ohms model 1222D With the Alpine u need to get the dual 4ohms 1242D model - so make u check that out .... |

I don't want to have the same exact system as everyone else, otherwise I would have gone to bestbuy and got the Alpines like 100's of other people in my area probably already have. And believe me, most people who have those alpines never had anything else besides them. They have no idea what any other sub sounds like so of course they'll say 'it's the best'- who would drag thier own system. I went to BestBuy a few months ago and told them I was looking for a new car system and the first thing they tried to sell my on were the R's. they didn't even have anything else! I ran. Alpine has become the 'household' name for car audio. Not saying thats bad but when 10 people living on the same black have the same exact sub setup, I would want something unique. |

Post Number: 1348 Registered: Jul-05 | Well according to the number of posts here by the minute on RE - RE 1 day will prolly get just as popular ...lol Alpine is a good econo brand & u do get alot of value for what it does . Pretty much all the brands do get popular & u just can't escape from some1 2 houses away owning 1 . Now if u really want some thing different i'd say Mmats , DD , Adire , Diamond , Atomic audio, Cadence , Eclipse , Image Dynamics , Memphis , Crossfire , Treo etc .... |
