i cant decide which would be louder i know type r is a great sub but have never herd one hit and my buddie has 2 phoenix golds in his suburban n thay are loud as **** (and there only 10S) i have a 12" non ported box let me know what you think

 

Pheonix Gold whats??

For the price point, a Type R does pretty good in the output department. Honestly I havent had much experiece with PG subs/speakers.

 

go with the alpines.

 

Alpine hands down...

X2 type-R cannot be beat for the price
