Ridiculous bass

May 12, 2007 - By Staggs (Haskell, NJ)

The Alpine Type-R subwoofers kick like no other. They are accurate, loud, and they have the ability to shake the rear-view mirror of the car next to you, and move your own.

man these subs slam. i have them hookt up to a 500 watt mono-channel bazooka amp, and it pounds. i dint think that it would be enuf to push these but i was wrong. the subs are in a bandpass enclosure and they are sitting in the back of my '05 tahoe. so far i am very satisfied with these subs.

Well, i've always been a kicker fan. However when one of my friends hooked up his 2 ALPINE TYPE-R subs to an MTX 1500Watt amp in his old suburban. I WAS BLOWN away litterally. these things kick like no other. awsome buy and for the price WHAT A DEAL!!! im even thinking of getting only 1 for my toyota tacoma. its a little powerful for such a small truck but these things ROCK! if any1 has any comments to make on the merchant selling these subs plz advise me if they are legit!

bass engine

Aug 30, 2007 - By Robert J. Jensen

Nicest set of subs I ever owned the bass is tight and punchy and has an overall warm feel to the system, matched these with alpine type r 17ls components and the sound is seemless between the speakers.

Decent subwoofer overall...

This is a quality sub that performs well and i have experienced no problems with it. I am a little disappointed however, it doesn't have the mind blowing power that one might expect from such an expensive model. Generally, all alpine products i own have lived up to their hype, but i don't notice a big difference between this sub and the one i replaced, which was a sony explode medium range model. I assumed that this alpine would blow away the older sony explode but in reality, i can't notice a lot of differences. I think that this alpine is built well and should last a long time. If i was asked to pay the retail price of 200$ for this model however, i think i would look into buying a different sub.
