[QUOTE="n0114692, post: 4504893, member: 585892"] Alpine only say 500 to be on the safe side so that they're not held responisble if you incorrectly supply them with more power. Some people say the type X's are better than the R's. I dont agree.. Anyways, i have a friend who bought a Type X well over a year ago and was (still is) powered by a JL 1000/1. The JL does the job but somehow i think it can handle more. I doubt your 500/1 will come anywhere close to waking this sub up. BTW JL do underate their amps but not in the quantities that you're think of. I've seen 500/1's produce anything between 500-553WRMS when wired correctly. If i was you i would get a better amp. You've got a pretty good sub, supply it with good power. You wont regret it. [/QUOTE]
