Type R would be better. heard some people have thoes Type S's (new, shiney versions) blow easily. the type X's too.

the only "X" you need to pay attention to is the Linear Excursion.

Dish out the little extra for the Type R's if you want Alpine. The type s still looks pretty cool, but if you want serious bang for your buck, go type R.
