hey guys
i am thinking of getting an Alpine TYPE X SUBWOOFERS.
the specs are below...but has anyone heard of this sub or have it...i can have some feedback from. and i also want to know which amp would really make the type x go wild. my budget is 500 for amp/sub/box... it is possible ?

thanks all

sorry forgot to include the spec.

Carbon fiber/aluminum honeycomb cone
High-roll Santoprene rubber surround
Cast aluminum frame
Dual 4-ohm voice coils
Frequency response 23-200 Hz
Power range 500-1,000 watts RMS (500 watts per coil)
Peak power handling 3,000 watts
Sensitivity 83 dB
Top-mount depth 8-11/16"
Sealed box volume: 0.65-1.25 cubic feet
Ported box volume: 1.0-2.0 cubic feet

 

a really big wattage amp would make it go crazy

 

They are LOUD. My friend has a single 12 in his car and it's insane. Just make sure you juice it.

 

Im definately getting the alpine x subwoofers. Not to sure which amp im gonna get for it. Does ne1 have a good website with alot of subwoofer enclosures?

 

Make your own enclosure. Or find a local shop that makes custom enclosures. With the weight of an enclosure, I doubt any website purchase would be worth it.

 

***********Frequency response 23-200 Hz*************

The subs are great but just make sure you understand what they are being used for. (Notice the frequency response above)

 

explain to me i am a uber noob at this stuff.

sooo confused "should i get type x or type r subs" gah!!

i can afford 2 type X subs(ty ebay $410) i just need to figure out what amp to get for them. Thinking about the alpine amp that puts out 1000watts

i dont got 700 to spend right now
