Ok man you run Type R's why are you hating on CVX's with 2 1500's? or 1000's can't quite tell. It's obviously not his setup but if it was it's actually a pretty damn good one even though it was probably way overpriced.


Still don't see the problem with type r's. You just seem butt hurt by alpine.

Iv had my type r's for about two years, and the guy before me had them a while. He had them ran off a 1k amp everyday all day, and Ill try 2k when I get my amp finally :D

Amazing cut and paste skills you have there. Almost can't see the white outline around all the stereo equipment.



Almost.

Yeah I'm butthurt over a shitty company that makes worse product than I own makes sense...I'm just sick of every noob recommending them and thinking they're good and wow you run 2 ATR's off 1k, have fun blowing them off 2k lmao with your LOUD sealed enclosure that's too loud for you... Why are you even arguing Patrick you're not even remotely down for discussion.

If I blow them with 2k then I blow them, can't argue for two years of good use out of them when I paid $80 for them and a box and an amp.

Sounds like a good deal but I don't buy used audio... and theres no if I'm 100% sure you'll blow them.

They weren't really used, guy had them in a car for a short period of time and removed them to do the same thing ill get rid of mine for, mounting a bottle.

And if their peak is
Peak Power Handling (Watts) 1500

Why can't two of them handle 2000 watts?

Because they use 2.5" coils with insufficient cooling and coil gap plus the motor isn't that big and the Tinsels are unwoven and cheap. Chances are if it doesn't blow from heat which it will maybe not right away but it will, it will definatly blow from over-excursion in whatever box you throw it in and probably rip a spider/tinsel or bottom it out. 2k on an ATR is a burp setup anyone who runs nearly that daily is going to blow them soon.

at over 600-800rms you start to hear the Tinsel slapping the cone, try to give them each 1000w and see what happens.

That's what I am doing... I'm not throwing 2k watts at one sub lol. I have 2x 10's
