alpine mids/highs

[POPLERO]

I first bought my headunit (alpine cda 117) and damn love it, then hooked up some tweets (alpine dts 1inch) and they are nice too. I have had good experiance and really like alpine stuff and would like to alpine 6.5 door speakers off an alpine amp but haven't heard many people post about them. I have heard the alpine 6.5 component type r's and like the way they sound. Just really looking for more feedback of people who have used the type r's or type x's in their doors or anything..

My goal would be an all alpine themed speakers (except woofers)

Alpine cda 117 headunit (installed)

Alpine ktp 445 powerpack (installed)

Alpine dts tweets on b pillars (installed)

Alpine spr-10tw in dash (ordered)

Alpine 6.5 components in fronts (undecided)

Alpine 6.5 coaxials in rears (undecided)

Alpine f4 amp for door (most likey because of its small footprint)

Good line up? Suggestions? Input appriciated.

I would say that would be a clean sounding setup. The Type r's are sweet speakers, i would recommend them. Although i haven't personally used them but have used type r subs

[Trey_Dog650]

i have the type r's and im pretty happy and satisfied with them

they are loud and clear, and im sure with some tuning and deadener they will sound even better

i used to have type r all the way around but i sold the subs.

You can pick up the (spr-60) 6.5 type r coaxs go for around 110 and the (spr-60c) 6.5 type r components for 155ish, which are good prices and would all match up but only thing holding me back is just knowing I could of gone another level better and get the (spx-17pro) 6.5 type x componets.. which are really out of my budget, around 450.

If you do decide to get those ask audiosavings what kind of discount they'll give you on them.

Thanx for the advice man! I made an offer to them and they accepted 367 as their lowest which is not bad I suppose, but have never heard them and not sure if I should pull the trigger on these bad boys.. I would like to hear the experiance someone has had with the type x pro line of alpine first hand.. no near by car audio store have these for me to listen to either.. but I would imagen alpine would make them significantly better than the type r line.

I would just stick with the type r's honestly.. not that i dont encourge getting better stuff, but i think the type r's are really great speakers and unless you have a crazy setup then i think you'll be fine with the r's

My buddy used to have a set of type-r 6.5's and he loved them, but somehow became unhappy with them and purchased a set of JL C4-650's! Which are over 400$ a set! The funny part is when he had the JL's installed you couldnt hear a difference between them and the type-r's. Just shows how overpriced JL is. All in all I would say go with the type-r 6.5. You wont be disappointed

i hope you won't hate me for recomending something else but check out the sq of these things man.

EDIT: and these are actually cheaper than type r's Edited February 28, 2012 by h23a3lude

I have Alpine Type-R speakers all around and I love the sound quality! I even have them amped as well.
