SmallTruk Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I had the type x ref and liked them. If you don't care about a name plate and want to run active (or build crossovers) you can do some research and buy the drivers that Alpine used for those sets. The tweets were Vifa xt25's I believe, not sure which mid they used though. If you wanna go higher end the F1 status stuff was ScanSpeak, based on the Revelator mid.

POPLERO Posted February 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 I was planning on building a set with either dayton audio and vifas or something, but I just would rather have more experiance under my belt before I start gathering a set together.. I have emailed a couple of company's and am trying to get the spx 17pro for the best price I can, shooting for 330 shipped. But for now I think I will go with the type r's off a alpine f4 100x4, which would already be a huge improvement from my current 50 dollar coaxs my car came with. Thank you for all the help everyone. I am a really slow builder but will try and get info together and pics and start a build log soon.

matt14 Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 To be honest, I've installed type R's in 2 differant cars and I was not impressed with them. The two customers also diddnt like them and want to change them out ( they gave me the equipment, i just installed it).I diddnt like the way they sounded, and just was not happy with them. Im currently running CDT's in my front stage and like them, a WHOLE lot more then the alpines. Future setup is going to be some Image Dyamics I think. Oxnard is SoCal, right? Im sure someone on here will have them installed or you could find a shop that has them. Hell i think even bestbuy had them. For the same if not cheaper you can go with these which is what i may run http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_22330_Image-Dynamics-CTX-6.5cs.html It would be sick to have all the same eqiupment, but i think there is better out there for the same/close price range Quote 2006 GMC YukonPioneer HU SHCA ran throughout Crescendo BC3500 One 18 AA Mayhem in a 4th order ZED Levithian 6 channel Rainbow Dual 6.5 comps ran Activehttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/155628-matt14s-yukon-mayhem-in-a-4th-ordernew-amps-and-bats/page-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
