[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8644217, member: 614752"] Except he probably wanted something that actually is a highly regarded SQ woofer which actually has some R&D behind it. Not everybody is a bottom feeder. Because the mark of a good subwoofer is just being able to get loud for cheap.... please leave these types of threads alone until you have a little more experience and stop trying to compare off-the-shelf Chinese cookie cutter stuff to proper audio equipment. OP, the type X has been an excellent woofer for a very long time and is solid up to 1000W. Build a proper box and it'll do well for you. You are a bit limited with the whole 2 ohm final load thing, but there's probably a handful out there or you could always get a Korean 2K (Soundqubed 2200, Twisted 1.8k or similar) for probably a little less than the Alpine and it'll get you about the same place. Stay out of the total junk brands (anything Grandpa recommends) and you should do fine. [/QUOTE]
