Im planning on putting 2 12" subs in the back of my SUV, and for months I have been planning to go with 2 Alpine Type R's, but now I am wondering if 2 JL W3's will be better? Is there going to be such a huge difference between the 2? Please help. And Im looking for a good mix of both SPL and SQ, Id like to shake some windows sometimes, but others i just like some nice bass. Thanks
Well it depends on what version w3 you have in mind. Im assuming the w3v3 (in which case agreed with Mike and Yanks), if it were a v2 or a v1 then type r no questions asked (in my opinion the original w3 was just garbage).
But I have personaly owned a w3v3 and heard/installed quite a few Type-R subs and the w3v3 wins sq hands down. Overall loudness, Type-R.
okay, well i think im gonna end up going with the Alpines, a shop here said they'd give me a great deal and I was planning on using everything else alpine in my system too, Thank yall for the help
well im driving a 2007 Tahoe LT, and the front and back speakers are stock bose... But they kinda suck, so im gonna replace the front with Alpine Type R or Type S Component and the back with R or S Coaxial. Im thinking the Type S because I dont think im going to have a speaker amp (unless i can find a kinda good deal, any suggestions?) right away and the S's will handle the power from the headunit better.
My plan is: Headunit- Alpine 9886 Speakers- Listed above 2 Alpine Type R 12" in 32-35hz tuned box Alpine MRP M-1000
