If you are putting together a nice sounding system that you want above avg. bass, go with the type R. If it is intersection thumping bass you are going for then you u want the type X. Look at the specs, 300 wats RMS on the type R vs. 1000 on the type X, If you are willing to spend on the amp to supply that power, and give up your back seats to have a box with that kind of air volume that is needed with the type X then go for it. But the price difference is also big between the two subs. It is up to you, but if you have the $ I would say go for it, they are the most kick ass subs you will buy anywhere. Hope I helped

Since my dak is a 91 reg. cab, i'm a little short of space for the type x!! I have a type R between the bucket seats, ran by a 300W rms v12 amp, and i think that is quite sufficient for my little truck! I was just wonderin if anyone had heard them cause if i had the space and money to get one, i think i would. The rest of my systen consists of type x components in the doors, and a cda-9833 deck. I will be buying a 2 X 50W RMS amp for the components, but for now they are just running from the deck, which is only 26W RMS, just a little under powered.

Sounds like a nice system. I am running infinity Kappa components in the front off a MTX thunder 4202 50 WattX2 RMS at 2OHMs. I have the alpine CDA-9830 for a head unit, and I am running infinity Kappa 2ways in the back off of it. Under the back seat I have 2 R-10s in a stealth box powered by the MTX 505? have to look at the model # again, 250W RMS X2 with a monster cable digi Cap 1 fared for my capacitor. Runnin it in a 1997 CC 5.2 V8 sport. Those subs really hit, and with the MTX amp, very clean.

yea you could do that, but then you start to get into alot more cost, and complex work. For what you have to work with you got a nice system, just like you said, more room=more boom.
