Hey im lookin to get a 15" alpine type R and didnt know if anybody has one???......some professionals are buildin me a slot vented box for a 15 and i was lookin at that so......ne inputs????

I have one in the '93. This thing is a monster. LOVE IT, with just one of them in a sealed box and a 600 watt rms @ 1 ohm amp it is crazy. It is pretty nice to stand outside of your car and watch the whole roof flex up and down I would REALLY like to build a slot port box for it this spring

I have the dual 2 ohm voice coil version.

Sitting in Ryan'* car is like sitting in a giant massager. That sub is awesome

You can probably get one cheap at Best Buy...

I honestly wouldn't go to Best Buy, unless you can find one for cheap, which, in my experiences, is just about impossible at Best Buy.

You can find them all day long on Ebay for dirt cheap, but with no warranty.

I bought mine from a local stereo shop for $250 in a VERY sturdy sealed box. Also came with a full factory warranty. Not sure if it is one or two years though.

Oh, and petraman... My amp was only about half way up

yeah i have a memphis pr500.1 amp........its not huge but has a 750 watt @ 1 ohm rms.........and thats what the type r calls for as an rms......i kno u dont need to hav that exact but it would be nice........yeah id be goin through a place called custom audio concepts so i know its not goin to be the cheapest but they do awesome work......it wont be my first time goin through and prolly not my last either........the last one of these he sold he said the guy had a little more power not much but he was easily in the upper 140'* db range so......i wanted to know if neone could back up the sound and performace of that beast........

Well, I can't give an actual db rating, I can tell you that it is, IMHO, well worth the money. I can't imagine one in a slot port box though I will build one up for mine this spring / summer.

I can tell you also that it is louder then a pair of Rockford Fosgate HE2 12" subs on the same amp, also louder then a single 12" Power Acoustik Fubr sub in a huge box. I also have had a pair of Directed 15" subs in this car that this Alpine blows away.

About the only system I have had that was louder doesn't really count because it was in a *-10 Blazer, but that was a Directed 600d.1 ( same amp ) and a pair of Rockford Fosgate HE 15" subs..... With all the room inside that Blazer, the sound was just ridiculous. I could hardly drive down the road with it up because it actually distorted my vision

awesome thts the kinda stuff i wanna hear.......gettin it installed on the 5th of jan. so ill tell ya how it sounds once i get it......

I guarantee you will like it

I have a 12" Type R in a 2.3 cu. ft. ported box tuned to 31 hz. It'* awesome. Plenty loud and hits all the lows beautifully. You will love it.
