Best components I've had

by Matt on Sep 17th, 2007 at 11:09 PM:

I had two 12" MTX thunders on my 600watt amp and decided to replace them with something smaller to gain some trunk space. i went with a single 12" Type E and the bass is better than ever! the single type E sounds cleaner and hits harder than both of my MTX's and is better than the two 12" Duals i used to have in a bandpass box.


If your looking for some earthquake, block shattering bass, you need to be looking at competition subs, but if your looking for some good clean bass to enhance your tunes, I Would recommend the Alpine Type E.

Can't get better

I just got one 12' type e to replace my 12' rackerd punk'3 and you would not believe how much better the Alpine's out perform the punch. I love them and you will not be dissapointed with them.

the best bang for your buck

i bought 2 alpine type e 12's they hit hard and have a nice clear sound they're the white faced ones i have 800watt kenwood pushing them i havent heard anything to top them yet just i would put them in an suv.except the kicker L5 and L7.

they get the job done

i have 2 of these and let me tell ya they exceeded my expectations of them. but still this is not the type of bass that is heard or felt from blocks away or even feet away from your car. it makes you shake in your seat and it has very good sound quality but it doesnt leave you gasping for air like true HARD HITTING subs.

sweet sounding subs

I got two alpine type e subwoofers to replace my c4 subwoofers. these alpines are a much cleaner bass and hit very hard. I have two swe subs that are hooked up to a alpine v12 amp which is awsome this setup sounds great in my 1992 acura integra which has perfect air space.
