A 10 to 12 inch world work better for this. If you have some 6x9 or 6.5 they accuratly play as low as 80 hz (pioneer puts the graph right on the box). in this case a 15 inch sub would slam that range. But as with everything it all depends on your personal taste so i recommend listening to the sub in a sealed box supported by speareks of around the same size and quality as yours at the store before you buy.

That's exactly what I did when looking at the Type-R. They had 4" Pioneers, so I just used those with the R, and it sounded amazing. I'm going to get Polk 4" just for the higher power handling, and better quality, and I think I'm going to eventually throw some 6x9's in individual boxes in the back of the wagon for added sound. I can't wait.
