agreed. You give that type r 400 watts, in a good sealed box, it'll slam like it was going outta style man.

Yeah-that's 300 more watts than your CVRs are getting. What are both amps? As I have found out the power advertised is seldom the actual power put out. Regardless, the Rs are a higher quality speaker-I listened to them side by side with CVRs and a Pheonix Gold Tantrum to help me decide, I went w Alpine!
