Alpine Type R Subwoofers

These incredible subwoofers from Alpine have withstood the test of time and proven themselves to be one of the top subwoofer choices for car audio enthusiasts. The Type R subwoofers are designed and engineered for big bass, as well as a durable sub that will last for many years to come. These woofers use a pulp cone that is reinforced with Kevlar for an incredibly durable and rigid structure. The ribbed multi-roll santoprene surround is designed for excellent response, while assisting in smoother cone movement and excursion. The subwoofer will stay cool under extended hard playing with the unique thermal management system that Alpine designed into the Type R Subwoofer. The tinsel leads are hidden and woven into the dual Nomex spiders for a strong and unbreakable connection. For those looking for an industry standard subwoofer with break-taking bass, consider the Alpine Type-R subwoofer.

Sealed box

I have one in a sealed box which saves a lot of space in my small trunk, It is louder than my two 12" infinity 1262 that were in a ported box tuned at 32hz with the same amp. Being a 15" it hits lower than the 12's, just like I wanted it.

"900w" @ 2 ohms with a Kenwood kac-9152d. Its overpowered, but I do have the gain turned down.

Great sound quality and has an amazing kick to it. My room mates in the third floor of our apartment complex said they know when I'm home because they can hear me parking. Tuned properly and you're set, crisp nice boom to the music.

DEF CON ONE

Well I got two of these bad boys in a custom built to specs candy apple red box hooked to a 1500.1 crunch power zone amp and when I ride though parking lots I set off car alarms and people cover their ears. Even the cart boy said he hears me across the parking lot.

Hits Hard!

I would buy this sub if your looking for a loud sub that hits hard on the lows! Put it in a good box with at least 500 watts rms and it will slam.
