I've had this subwoofer for about 3 weeks now and I must say that this is a great subwoofer. I've only owned a few speakers in my life and this is the best one. I replaced an Alpine Type-R in a ported box with this Type-X in a sealed box and I got the best of both worlds. The Type-R was loud but the sound quality lacked because at higher volumes, transitions between bass notes were slurred. The Type-X in a sealed box gave me the sound quality I was looking for, each bass note is very cleared and crisp, and the lows are unbelievable. I also got the loudness of the Type-R with it. Best of both worlds in my opinion. Now don't get me wrong, the Type-R was louder, but if you're looking for a sound quality oriented subwoofer, loudness is not the first thing to look for, however, the Type-X does get loud. Overall, this will probably be the last subwoofer I buy, and if I do buy another, it'll be a second Type-X. For the price, you can't beat this subwoofer. Period.

I have two 12" Type-X subs ported hooked up with an M-2000. Front type-R component system and 6x9's in the back hooked up with a PDX-400. All Alpine with an Alpine deck. Stinger cables, upgraded alternator and with two upgraded batteries. System bumps for two subs I am pleased. My amp isn't even all the way up. I know people hate on Alpine but I am satisfied. The price on this site are pretty legit because Alpine employee discounts are about the same rate.

These subs are amazing. I have them fully powered and they are by far the loudest subs in my area. Also, these subs put out very clean-tight bass. I would highly recommend these subs to a friend. I pound these subs all the time and they haven't skipped a beat.

This sub is really great, i am playing 1 of this sub with an spl gorilla series 3000 class D amp at 2 ohms and sound great. I'm gonna buy another one. Trust me guys its plays more low bass than the kickers L7 12". For a sub that cost not too much and play really loud get this sub.
