I recently bought 2 alpine 12 type r subs and I also bought a hifonics brx 1600.1d. My question is will this amp over power these subs at two ohms or is it a good match up.....

I've given a single Type R 12 1000 rms clean daily without any issues

2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L

Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS

Knu OFC 1/0 

SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750

Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5

IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12

With that amp,you will probably be underpowering them at 2ohms final, which means your subs are dual 2ohm incase you hav not figured it out. If they are dual 4 ohms then you can take the amp down to 1ohm. Either way you will be fine

Yeah.. youll be absolutely fine.

If you have any questions relating to nutrition, lifting, or health in general, feel free to give me a PM and I will give you straight forward advice with no BS involved.

I had a 3000 watt on two type rs and they are still hittin hard 2 years after i sold them with the same amp

What 3000W amp? To the op you should be fine.

HU - Pioneer MVH 7350

Processor - Helix DSP

Front Stage - JBL P660C

Mid/high amp - Alpine PDX-F4

Subs - 1 IA Death Penalty 12

Sub Amp - Cactus Sounds PF300.1

OP you should clear up if these are SWR-12D2 or older series, in any case hifonics amps put out rated power at 14.4V if you don't have that you won't be seeing 1600W, make sure your electrical can handle the power or the subs may cook.

Ok cool thanks for all you guys help....I have another question. I was thinking about getting a third alpine 12....how exactly would I wire them up to give me that same amount of power or if not more?

all depends on which model number woofers you have. thats THE most important part.
