sub size

I just blew my 15 inch rocksford sub and i am looking to replace it with an alpine type-r 15 inch sub. my question is will it fit in the same box? and will it work with the same wires and etc? thanks

Sure but why 15"? I'd take two 10's over one 15" anyday.

Thats because rockford sucks, lol j/k it should all be the same but you will have to run a crossover wire between the two wire ports on the sub, but the directions will show you how to do that. I have a Type R 12" and its great. Never heard a fifteen tho. Buy yea it should be the same size or very close, you shouldnt have a problem.

I wouldn't knock Rockford... I had two Rockford 10's in my Firebird and those things slammed at 300watts... Never had a problem with them blowing... I switched over to a single 12" Type R sub for my Talon though because I wanted just a cleaner sounding bass... Also I prefer to not have my ears bleed anymore. lol

But yes, the 15's should fit in the same box with no problems...

Im just playing around, but i do hate rockford, bad experiences.....lol

Alpine is the shit!

man the alpine type-r is much bigger than i expected...didn't fit in the same box ;( Lol oh well

Really? It didnt fit in a 15" box? Wierd?

I'm guessing the box wasn't deep enough for the new sub. IIRC, those new alpines have a huge ass magnet on them.

Yea the box wasn't deep enough..i didn't expect the alpine to be so big and heavy lols

I bet that bitch thumps though.

I bet it does, the twelves do! And yea, they have some pretty good sized magnets...

how does your type-r 15 sound? I didnt like mine...sounded good for the dirty south...but juts wasnt right for the godsmack scene...two 12" rockfords are doing me just fine
