Chauncey had 1 for sell a little while ago.....he had a crazy low price for it. He was planning on putting it on e-bay, but I don't know if he sold it or not. You should ask him about it.

plus the type x looks like li has not only really good spl but good sq too. in a sealed box i bet they sound even better.

type x is a good sounding sub IMO... good for small enclosures.. if you want loud though while spending less money get the type r's as the type x's are best used in sealed enclosures.. they do get reasonably loud though

I have my type X's running off 1600-1700 watts and they have great SQ...not enough SPL to make you deaf, but they get loud. I have a ported box at 32hz and hit 143-144ish with music.

is that 1700 watts each i hope or not. and if i put more amps on i should beable to up the spl quit abit.thats cool tho that they have good sq but i bet with more watts the spl fould follow. and are sealed boxes the best for these i hear they sound good in theese.how is your altonator doing also.

Its a hifonics BX2005...which says 2000watts but really isnt. If you get an amp that puts out a little more power 2000-2400 im sure the spl would go up a little but not too much. they are made for sealed boxes, but once again u will lose alot of spl. My alt. is fine right now its 180amps but i would play it safe and get 200-250amp if you get one.

who nice ride man! ya so they are made for sealed boxes right. if i put them in a sealed box with enough watts you think the spl would increse more. i really like the fact that the sq is good, thats good to hear, but im kinda worrying about the spl too.
also how good are those xxx everyones talking about?thx

sealed box will decrease the spl of course, as opposed to a ported..no matter what the sub.. a ported box will always be louder .. asuming its setup correctly.. if your willing to sacrifice sq go with a ported... you could always make 2 boxes too.. 1 for spl and 1 for sq... and also how loud are u wanting to go?.. feed 1000 -1500 watts to each type x in any box and they will get pretty damn loud

do u have enough space for the 15's to work properly. The 15's will get louder since there is more cone area, but the x's will get loud and sound better

if the same amp used for the type Rs were used for the type Xs, then yes the type Rs would be louder. but if the type x was properly powered, then it would be louder.

but since he listens to rap music the 15's would give him the deeper bass that a 12 cant do. but like i said up there^^ the x's will get crazy loud and sound good doing it
