Avoid the H2, from what I've read.

The R isnt what you're looking for.

TDX is a nice sub, AudioQue HD15 is a great output sub with mediocre SQ, the XXX is a nice as well

check out the Koda line in mobile audio. My personal pick is the Brahma. I've had it in both ported and sealed enclosures with anything from 1000 watts to 4000 watts and it never disappoints in spl or sql.

Check out their SE line, thats probably in your price range also. The XXX is as good, if not better sq than the brahma, but the price tag is also up there. The SE is a nice compromise for the money and it also has suprisingly good power handling.

Any of the products from the above manufacturers is going to more than exceed an alpine type R in both performance and quality.

If your old school, you probably remember Orion being the $h!t. Well alots changed in 5-10 years. They are no longer as good/dominating as they use to be. Especially so in the sub department. The subs are decent, but not for the money they want. No one is really jumping up and down about their SQ or SPL ability. The only good amp they make is the 2500D, and you can get the same amp with a DEI and a Viper sticker on it, and pay less. The days of the HCCA, .0009% THD, and quarter ohm stereo impedances is long gone...
