Full Version: Can I spend My $300-400 on a better sub than a Type R?

Ive got $300-$400 to spend on a 12inch DVC sub. Looking at a Sound Quality sub to play rnb and trance, with load deep bass.

Is there any subwoofers that are a better buy than the Alpine Type R? If so which ones.

Also should i be buying a DVC 2ohm or DVC 4ohm?

Amp will be the Audison LRX 1.400, Specs are i believe:

1x350rms 4ohm
1x650rms 20hm
1x900rms 1ohm

Any Help would be sweet.

Cheers.

I have an a/d/s 312rs.2 for sale (look into my for sale forum)...it would be better than the Type R in SQ.

Boston Competitor, they are available in 2 ohm. Bascially a PRO without the pretty basket. Awesome if you are tight on space.

Yes, there is several subs that are better than the Type R for the money.

I wouldn't recommend an Adire Audio - Shiva though... I was extremely disappointed in it's output when I purchased mine and upgraded very quickly to the 15" Tempest. Sounded better and went ALOT louder.

Look at the a/d/s/'s being sold in the for sale section... Very good SQ sub. Or an Infinity Perfect, my ex had one and I thought it sounded great.

Phil was obviously sick of getting flamed, but i'm gonna mention it anyway

Digital Designs 2012, Hand made in the U.S.A, I went from type R's to these DD"s and theres no comparison!! Around $350.00

U may need to get a different amp that makes its most power at 4ohm as IIRC they only come in SVC 4ohm version.

digital designs 2012, peerless xls and dynaudio woofs get my vote below 500.
