97SSBlazer Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 the last system i had in my 97 blazer was 2 L7 12's on an old school 1500.1 (sharkfin) which hit 144.6 (TL). I sold it am now looking at new subs. My buddy works at best buy as an installer and like the Alpine type r 15's (He drives a 01 Jimmy with 4 15" T1's so he knows loud) When i went to the two local shops they both suggested Alpine R's. One shop offered me the 15's for 350.00, Which is a great price. Oh and i need the new setup by this Sunday for a local show. The L7's won me third last time, will the R 15's be louder? Quote lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz. -= 2005 Tahoe LT =-Head unit: Pioneer AVH-X5500BHSSource: iPad Mini in dash Subs: 2 T1 12's Sub Amp: T1500-1bdCPWire: Rockford Fosgate 1/0 awgSignal Cable: MonsterFronts:Stock Bose for now:)Rears: Stock Bose for now:)MIds/High amp: Stock Bose for now:) 2005 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172529-2005-tahoe-my-17th-vehicle/ 2001 Monte Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/160030-2001-monte-carlo-my-16th-car-lol/page-2#entry25309381997 Tahoe Build Log: http://www.stevemead...oe-6-15-rf-15s/2001 Impala Build Log: http://www.stevemead...katzkin-inside/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AI James Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 depends on your install, but they are pretty impressive subs for the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J00bles Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 they will be louder than the type r's, but you wont get them in a couple of days. if you're in a bind and need subs, then go with the r's. they are still great subs that will make some noise.

BIGD502 Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 go with the Rs or type xs even because you wont get the dcs by sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AI James Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 louder is all relative. theres a guy on the forums whos got a 150 with a single type r 10 on a burp non musical. for the price youll have a hard time getting somethign the same performance as Type R's unless you have some inside tract or hookup with some company. Is there better out there , yea sure there is, but for the price its pretty slim pickens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97SSBlazer Posted August 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 yea i am about to start working at the shop that is hooking me up. I have been going there for like 4 yrs now and have a good relationship with the installers. I always build my own boxes and do all my own alarm/starter wiring. I think its def gonna be the r 15's but will 2 R 15's Beat out 2 L7 12's? i have the plenty of power. Quote lower tuning is just hard.
