Upgrade to a 12 that can handle more power.

Definitely make sure its not a prefab box. An SA will sound similar to the type R. X is probably what you want.

An SA will sound nothing like a Type-R. LMFAO It will blow it out of the water.

How much power do you think i could put on an SA? They are rated @600w but ive heard of people throwing much more power at them.

Fi SSD, DC Level 3, Tantric HD, Sundown X, AA Havoc, American Bass XFL, DD 3512, C2 Threatcon-2, CT Sounds Strato, Soundqbued HDS300, SSA Icon, DSS Ethos. lots more to list..

I'm looking at the DC level 3.... Rated at 900wRMS? How much do you think that sub can really take daily? I've been running 1200w to this type r and it just blew on me the other day. Pretty hesitant to overpower a sub again now haha. Yes gains set with a DD-1. I am thinking of going up to a level 4 but the cost diff is significant. Also, says the level 4 can go in a 1.5 cu ft box? That seems small considering my alpine box is 1.75. Also, since my box is already that size could I just swap subs and be ready to go??? Any help appreciated thanks.

not true. last week i made a kid want to trade his sa 12s for my rs. his exact words were "why is yours so much louder, i even have more Watts"

I'm sorry but I've heard numerous sa set ups.. dual ten trip tens single and dual 12s my cheap Lil rs play Lower and louder!

let the hate flow but I swear I'm not lying.

that said i don't think rs are loud. hence why I'm.selling them.

op upgrading from a sub that handles 1000w to a sub that takes 1200w isn't gonna do anything special.

its like going from a $1000 dollar car to a $1500 car. yea I'm sure one might be a Lil nicer but the cheaper one might be faster.

if you want a increase that is worth it get a $2500 car do you know what I'm saying?

look for deals on subs that have a msrp around $400 that will be worth the upgrade.

or I'll sell you my rs...

this exo is taking forever!

Have you taken a look at DSS?

DirectSoundSolutions.com

Great prices and they require small space.

Just another option. It's only 280$ right now, 1800 rms, and weighs about 63 pounds.

I recommend becuase you said you like different types of music. These are very responsive, in fact the most responsive subs I've ever heard. Just another option to look at.

If you have to ask, you have no business running more than rated power to a woofer.

You should be looking to a woofer with a 3" coil if you intend to run 1200W continuous power.

Also, most importantly you should be looking to invest in either building or buying a solid custom box. A "better" sub in a prefab box or poorly made box will not be much of an upgrade for you.

I would say scoop a sundown X.

[SlamminBeats]

i would keep the type R

those subs look like they have improved over the years. just throw 1200w at that.

if it were me id build a new box before i waste money on an SA. I wouldnt be able to say for sure if the SA is hat much better.
