Considering you can almost get 4 Type R 12's for the price of 1 12W7 and they don't require a zillion watts to move, you can't really go wrong.

He is going to be getting the old type-r, pushing that much power and he (obviously wants boom), will lower the lifetime of the sub considerably. I ran 1 12" Type-R off of a 500w, i tore the cone from the rubber lining numerous times. Type-Rs are being rebuilt FOR A REASON. Most stores only have a warranty that covers a one time issue. Others, like Ultimate Electronics, have a more long term guarantee.
I would highly suggest buying a JL as it will be a longer term investment and you won't have to replace it as soon.
