I liked ported much more with my Type R 12 setups I had.

Go ported you won't be upset.

Type R's are not built for ported boxes, however, who cares what alpine suggests.'

Here's what I suggest.....buy your 2 R's and then buy the one that I have that still works and run 3 10's ported tuned to 35-36HZ and a really big amp.

What you need to watch out for sometimes on the R's is the tensel leads will seperate from the binding posts....ask Brad77 about that

Confused a lil lol butttttt still makes sense. I really only want the pair not 3 lol Cuz im on an extreme budget lol Plus buildin is fun somewhat u get the satisfaction of knowin u built it. Might compete with it.

I seriously don't mean this in an offensive way...

But this post just proves that out of your 2914 posts most of them were completely useless because you obviously haven't learnt a thing.

After about post 100 you should know that ported = louder. Period.

(unless poorly built, but lets assume you build it properly) [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]


So yeah... you = [img]graemlins/post.gif[/img]

^No kidding.

Tune in the mid-high 30's. I prefer a slot port because you can more easily choose the port area you want. No, you don't need 40" of port. There'll be little difference with even half that amount.

Totally a [img]graemlins/post.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] but honestly sometimes it takes me awhile to understand some things hence why I ask a lot of questions especially repeats of questions. I like to be COMPLETELY SURE before. Call it paranoia if you will.
