im mainly going for SQ now, since my dad still has to drive with me..
i am curious, would a alpine type R 12" dual 4ohms be better for sq than a premier W3004SPL (12" dual 4 ohms).
i can get the premier for 280$ new, since i already have my alpine..
any input is appreciated, thnx

Do you already using the Type-R? If so, how old is it?
The TS-W3004SPL is an AWESOME subwoofer with more advanced technology in it than any other subwoofer on the market. It is mainly geared for SPL but is a greatly improved SQ sub as well.
To be honest though, if your Alpine is a year or so old, I wouldn't think you'd be able to hear much of a difference but if it's 2+ years old, the TS-W3004SPL might sound superior & be able to work in a wider range of enclosures. It's sound signature is deep, punchy, powerful bass.
Hope this input helps.

i love the sound of the pioneer though, and really, im impressed, but really, i've caught the bug [img]tongue.gif[/img]
i think i'll grab the 3004spl though, and if not, exchange it for something else.
im new to this, so really, live n learn.
p.s - thnx pioneer guy for the input.

Doan, of course I'm "biased" becuase this is the product I know best. Three patents back up Pioneer's claim.
And Rob, isn't your post above a little of "the pot calling the kettle black"? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

if pioneer guy is going to sell the pioneer sub then i might as well do the same only with hrad facts!
I would go with a RE XXX sub. Only one of few subs to use xbl^2 motor topology. Which gives the sub the flatest bl curve in the market.
The XXX WILL sound better then the alpine and WILL be louder then the alpine also. I will put my personal guarentee on it.
If you want more info on xbl^2 go to http://www.adireaudio.com/TechInfo.htm
as Adire is the R&D company to invent xbl^2 technology.
