By the way, good review...

Well Kelvin, as usual...Great idea/comparison. I have used the soundsplinter rl-i8 a while back. Had one in the back of a tiny suv with a dyn front stage with a drz9255 and mcintosh 431 (x2). It was a GREAT sub! If I remember correctly I would say that would be a fair comparison in most cases. I think impact and articulation would go to the Type R, I think they are going to own that catagory in most cases...they get an 11-10 in that dept. imo. I assume its a combo of cone material/weight with the unique surround they use. Volume they are probably very similar. If I recal, the time I got the rl-i8 it was very hard to get hold of and took a slightly larger box to be able to get the freakish low end extension they were capable of, also very good power handling as well. I would say they might be the closest comparison I can think of (after you mentioned it
