Type R vs Type X subs
#12
You're going to need all the power you can afford with those subs... they're not very efficient, but they do sound nice. If you have the peak handling of the sub in RMS you'll be fine...Set your gains as normal, and just be careful not to play long, loud notes for extended time. If you're using a ported box, it'll help a lot if your amp has a subsonic filter. If not buy an outboard one.

^ I dont think anyone said type R was better than the type X, it is meerly less expensive and a little smaller (both are darn attractive BTW). I seriously doubt anyone who has compared the two would say that R is better than X... but you are correct it is opinion!
