New Alpine Type R's

i'd love to see a type r with 1500 watts on it

My local shop has 2 12's in about 6.0 cu ft ported running off a new rockford power t1001 or 2001 cant remember but they destroy the sound room. I like them a lot.

If I was going to get some it would have to be the new ones. The old ones were underrated in power and the newer ones are as well if not more.

 
they thing is on the swr1241d the surrounds seem to come unglued and u have to re glue them has anyone else had this problem, let me know . but since i upgraded to the swr 1242d, nop probz, the sub is sick. they r still underated......handles as much as a W7... not as loud tho.

The type r does not handle as much as the w7. The dub 7 can be ran with 1500rms all day long, the type r would go up in smoke, and The type x as well. Alpines new equipment is decent enough though. I sell them at a little shop I work at, and they seem to be doing decent so far.

 
shut up dude , alpines can handle 1500 rms power if you tweak ur amp settings right , i know what im talking about fool, look at the sensitivity on the w7 and swr1242d which indeed indicates they need juice and lots of it to be efficient. so dont tell me it cant handle it cuz ive done it and had the sub for months now...not to mention ummm look at the ratings for the type r 10" 05' version : 500w rms 1500w peak, ummm 10W7: 500w rms and umm 1000w peak maybe a bit more... i think thats comparable enuff ..case closed

i just built a box for a type R 10" goin in my friends ride, its in a 2.41 cu foot box , and tuned to 32 hz, i hooked it up to my eclipse 7232D in my car to test it out (2,000w RMS)

and it hit really hard, definetly doesn't sound like a $140 sub
