which sub is better the 12 inch r type 2 ohm or 12 inch r type 4 ohm

That's a quite complex question you should look it up online to know more. Simply said you can play a sub at 1,2 or 4 ohm. It's takes a weaker amp to power at 1 but it also puts more stress on the speakers. At 4 ohm it would be hard to fully supple the power. Your best bet is to look up wiring for 2 ohm or 4 ohm subs and match it with what is in your car or when your planning to have. You can't simply say one is better than other. Amplifiers have diffrent ohm they supply to depending on the amp type and setup.

They are the same output and quality the 4 ohm is more common. Check compatibility with your amp and go from there

2 is way better. Better response if you ask me they pound and can handle more power. .

2 ohm, I have dual 12s both running 2 ohms with a 3000 watt amp, sounds amazing and I'm still breaking it in, but 2 ohm in my eyes is for more than one sub to divi the power more equally

Definitely the SA-12...I love mine and it is rated very conservatively. It's rate 600rms, but I'm throwing 1200rms at it and it takes it like a champ. I've had experience with all 3 subs and I'd say the sa-12 is the best by far, but it all depends on the box and the amp. You can make the best sub in the world sound like the worst if it's in the wrong enclosure with the wrong power. I hope that helps you.

because this is a 12 inch sub.. It will produce the lower frequencies more easily and clearly than an 8 inch at modeate volume.. My unit has performed well..

12 inch are up to 1200 w output 10 inch are up to 1000 w output FYI they are very nice and sound great with dual voice coil you have couple different ways to wire them up.depends on what you are doing and how u have it wired up in car . The 10" subs magnet is not much smaller than the sub itself their amazing really

Hi To answer your question correctly, they both are 1000 watts , the main difference is the 15 inch has more full body sound and you can also use it without any sub if place you are playing is not big enough for adding a subwoofer . I would use the 12 for smaller venue up to 50 people vs the 15 that can handle over 75-100 people. Hope you are comfortable with my explanation and if you do need further assistance , you are welcome to call us 718/272/7228 . Thanks . Mike

Bought these and heard very bad about them. I went with a rockford fosgate p3 12" single sub in a sealed box wired down to 2 ohms. Im heard from a distance with just one

This amp is perfect for you're two 10inch subs . Make sure you load them to 1ohm.I have it installed in 2 12 type R's and it bumps.

Rockfords R2D4 is much more efficient, power intelligent, and more bang for your buck amp than any other class D amp I've ever bought. I run s single 10" sub in a ported box that bumps better than any dual 12" subs strictly because of this amp. Buy and love it or I will pay for it.

There are many variables to consider when building boxes that affect sub performance, but without those to consider there are a few things you can plan with. Your subs can be wired together (assuming they are single voice coil) at either 2 ohms or 8 ohms, with 2 ohms being the better choice for this amp. At this resistance the amp will work very well, providing up to 500 watts RMS (much under the rating of your subs)

I think is better you get a 1k amp for this sub or you get Alpine 12" type R for your amp

I'm running infinity kappa components which are 2 ohm and they work and sound awesome. I do recommend running a solid 4 channel amp but its not required.

I'm not a technical person but I do know I've hooked up three 12s 1200watt subs and it holds up nicely never whimpers out and I've played all kinds of music....hope this helps in your decision

Depends on there wattage I ran two planet audio big bang12 inch vortex2500 watt on it at .7 ohm and it held up until the subs wore out from heavy over use and to much dubstep

O yea I'm pushing 2 boss 1400 watt 12" subs. The watt rating on your subs is the max they can take not how much they need to be powered

Yes, I have two Kenwood 12 " subs and it sounds as good as wheni had a High Powered Kenwood reciever hooked up. You will need an amp if you have not installed one yet. The amp makes for any difference.

It's a really nice box, hope you have plenty room it's a decent size and very deep for big magnet subs and has a labryth build for deep bass. I don't know what ohms your going to run. I think that subwoofer is 4ohm you can look up how to wire it down to 2ohm, sometimes even in the installation instructions. But I love that box and I'm only pushing 500 watts and it shakes my SUV, I'm using pure copper wires throughout my setup though.

If you are going to use a single 12" it is better if you get the dual 2 ohm as this will come down to 1 ohm and most amps would be 1 ohm stable in this power braket. 1000 rms at 1 ohm is good enough to shake this beast. Doesnt need more.i have used 2.5 and 3 cube boxes. 3 is better. It is not a low frequency sub so dont tune too low. 38 hz is lowest i would go. It is loud though !!! Excellent value for your money. Just remember to break it in well before you turn it up.
