hockeyrulz21 Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Hey guys, I'm thinking about ordering a 12" Alpine Type R. I'm pretty sure it will be the one I order but I just wanna know what you think about the sub. Tell me if you think it will be a good choice.

dleccord Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 good choice buddy. its bang for the buck. where you getting yours from and how much? if you're gonna feed it a lot of power, 2-2.2 cubes of space and about 50 square inches of port area. maybe a little less.

sean 371 Posted April 28, 2007 Report Share Posted April 28, 2007 They aren't 149. I think sonic has them for $119 as well.
