i think so...the r would be over powered and beyond it's limits while the cvr's would be at their's and 2x the cone area.

I agree that 2 kickers would beat the one alpine type R, but two type R's would beat two kickers I would think.
Like you said, your getting the 07 model which is rated 400WRMS, so putting 1000W between two could end bad.
But as HEC said, he was running 1000W to one, while I was running 500W to one and burnt the Voice coil.
Just remember YMMV.

type r is a 500rms with a 1500w peak.
im running my 12" type r now off a rockforde p1000 at 1 ohm pushin around 1400w.
hits hard and shakes the out of my car, lights dim like a **** looking to fix that this weekend with a more powerful alterator. plan on getting another 12" r and having it push the same. imo type r is waaaay better then kicker, but then i work with another installer who loves kicker, so once you have them you can decide, everyone likes the sound of something diff.
