brucesmith Posted May 10, 2012 Report Posted May 10, 2012 What's your guy's thoughts on 2 Alpine type r 12's ran by 2 Alpine MRP-M500's? In a ported box by the way.
Maebros Posted May 10, 2012 Report Posted May 10, 2012 MY old man has the same setup in his grand am and he seems to like it. its not crazy loud but i definitly gets the job done. HU: Pioneer AVH x5800BHS SP Amp: AQ 120.4 Front SP: Hertz Hsk 165 Rear SP: DD cxs 6.5 SW Amp: Crescendo BC2000d SW 2 DC level 3 12" Electrical: Stock alt for now XS D2400 XS D3400 Knukonceptz Kolossus Second skin damplifier On 8/8/2012 at 4:50 PM, Brandon15zzz said: I heard he actually graduated college with a 4.0 gpa.

Crandis16 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Posted May 10, 2012 go for more power, depends on how much of a load you plan on running to the amp. If you can wire the type-Rs at 1ohm and use a 1ohm stable amp then do that but make sure to give the subs their maximum potential My Red zx2 Build Log My Black zx2 Build Log My Red zx2 UBL
AI James Posted May 10, 2012 Report Posted May 10, 2012 he gains nothing running a 1ohm load thta he would have at 2 separate 2ohm loads. and the 2 2ohm amps are going to most likely yield more power after impedence rise then the single amp thats wired down to one ohm.

I'm still trying to learn lol, I know at 2ohms it'll be more efficient so a 2ohm stable amp would be nice My Red zx2 Build Log My Black zx2 Build Log My Red zx2 UBL
AI James Posted May 10, 2012 Report Posted May 10, 2012 plus those amps are very cheap and relaiable. type r 12 doesnt need any more then what that amp has to offer, unless your talking about the new 1000rms ones
Crandis16 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Posted May 10, 2012 I don't know the specs on the type-Rs. I have 2 SA-12s and they run about 600wrmslol so I was thinking the Type-Rs would be able to run a little more than 250wrms. 1000wmrs sounds like a nice Type-R My Red zx2 Build Log My Black zx2 Build Log My Red zx2 UBL
Robby Holmes Posted May 10, 2012 Report Posted May 10, 2012 a buddy of mine has this same setup installed in his buick lesabre and it is a good quality setup, gets a little loud for what it is, but as stated already, it gets the job done for a pretty reasonable price '08 Chevy Cobalt coupe 2.2 base model trunk build: 2 9512iSC flatwound alum 1.5 coils -extra 9500 spider pack -8" platinum carbon dustcaps 1 DD Z1 (.375ohm nominally daily) 3g31 AGM 320a Ohio Gen alt 1 DD S4 4 channel 4 VO-M8v1's (holes cut for 3rd pair) 2 CS 6.5's 2 VO-B1's Sony XAV-601BT all Knu Krystal RCA's Cadence 7band EQ ______________________ 148.3db @ 32hz (burp) 148.4 @ 37 & 38hz (burp) 146.xdb 90sec average (center windshield)
brucesmith Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Posted May 10, 2012 That's what I figured. Right now I only have a 350 watt rms pioneer on a phoenix gold that only pushes 100 watts rms at 4 ohms so anything will be better really haha. I'm pretty set on this set up, Been thinking about it for quite awhile.
