Silver Member Username: Comp98Philadelphia, PA USA Post Number: 111 Registered: Sep-05 | IMO, take the SX. Think about it this way: You meet some friends and they all have car subs. How many do you think will have the SX? How many would have the R's that BestBuy recommends to eveyone? More than likely none of your friends will have even heard of RE. I consider that a 'good' thing. ohh and the Sx can handle more power : ) |

Silver Member Username: ShadylimitedxPgh, Pa Usa Post Number: 327 Registered: Apr-05 | whats my best bet 2 12 re sx in a 1.9cuft box tuned 2 32hz wit a 3inwide port or 1 15 re sx in a 3.8cuft box tuned 2 30hz wit a 3 or 4inch wide port an they will b powered wit 1 ed nine 1 amp what 1 will b louder the 1 15 set up will b cheaper in the long run any thoughts |

"If you can get adequate power to the SX it will blow the Type R OUT OF THE WATER in SPL... In SQ though, the R might have the upper hand even though the SX doesn't have horrible SQ." Again, suprise suprise... Check this out. http://forum.soundillusions.net/showthread.php?t=53780 |

Silver Member Username: MixmastaspigOkanagan, B.C Canada Post Number: 171 Registered: Sep-05 | So are you saying I should stick with my Type R subs then? |
|
Silver Member Username: Riebread77Post Number: 679 Registered: Jun-05 | i've also heard 2 12" type R's...they weren't coming close to 148 db...lucky if they hit 130 db |

Silver Member Username: MixmastaspigOkanagan, B.C Canada Post Number: 177 Registered: Sep-05 | I hit 139.6 db with 2 12" Type r's running off an XPLOD amp, 5th place in DB drag |

Josh CCS Unregistered guest | There was a guy at a local show I went to running 2 10" type r's, ported box I think just under 2 cubes in the back of some small hatch back (foreign somethin or other, about the size of a daytona). He had 2 boss rt2500ds and was hitting 142.something. There was another guy there with 2 of the newer type rs (10s still) in a grand am who folded the seats down, sealed off the trunk, used something like 4 aeroports and hit 144.something. Impressive for a cheap sub. And both of these cars were in street a in db drag, mic on the dash (well, mid windsheild, passenger side). |

What isn't consistent about burps? Yes he did try strapping the amps for the SeXXX and SX..they simply couldn't handle the power. "port wars? I know that wasnt legal! if you claim it was I want a description of your system, in what vehicle, what box, what amp everything because I don't buy it at all!" What score don't you believe? |

Silver Member Username: Camaro155mphPost Number: 258 Registered: Aug-05 | Scott, in about 10 days i can give u the results of a first hand test between the 2 subs you mentioned. My friend has Type R's, and I just purchased a SX15. I will put money down that my SX15 will have the same if not more SPL than his 2 12" type R's. Once I get my sh!t hooked up we are both going to meter our systems, on the dash, windows down..... |
