    5 out of 5 stars alpine type r   July 10, 2010
    Bass enthusiast
    i spent weeks looking for the right subwoofer for my car and the alpine was the best buy for the money.
    it is loud it hits all the notes without distortion. i am a VERY picky sound person and the quality of the sound cannot be beat!! i am an official alpine fan! just make sure you have enough power going to the speakers i have had these for two weeks and after breakin them in they sound better then ever don't let anyone talk you out of getting these they are a great buy!

    theres nothing better thann this. I put two of these in my trunk at xmass and they are still pounding. 2 of these an alpine MRP-M1000 and an IDA X 305. I have a capacitor aswell. You need one with this setup.

    i was a bit wary of ordering this sub but i must say it has really been great! i highly recommend these subs to anyone! i am running about 600 watts RMS right now in a ported box and this thing handles notes well on all levels without distortion! def recommend this and will stick with these in the future!!!


    5 out of 5 stars Best sub for the best price   May 6, 2010
    This sub is the best sub you can buy for the price. I recomend them for everyone. Having owned nothing but Alpine, I say you can get a much better deal then the type R series.

    Bought this in a bundle of scosche box alpine 500 and sub (for less than $300 bucks!). After a week the sub sounded better. Box is 1.25 alpine recomends .85. I got it in a tahoe, sound quality is great after the break in. Not as loud as I wanted but it could be the box or size of the tahoe. But to put it short its amazing with the Polk MM speakers I have run by a alpine 300. This sub is built like a tank and is very well made and comes with a trim to cover screws. Its as long as it is wide. I think I'm gonna try the .88cf box amazon sells since alpine recomends .85. For the $ you cant do better I have JLs in my Pick up so I know good sound. Was very suprised since I dont like alpines midranges or tweeters, but their recievers,amps and these subs dont disapoint.
