Re: Tell Me What You Think

Type-R subs are awesome. Great subs for sound quality. The RMS is 500 but people here tell me they can handle 1000 watts on a daily basis. You don't need a separate amp for the speakers necessarily. It just depends on what your power needs are. If you're not putting a ton of juice in your sub(s) then you'll probably go with one powerful amp. I'm only putting around 400 watts in my Type-R and it kicks butt. You don't need to meet the RMS to make it sound good.

Alpine amps are good, but they seemed to be overpriced to me.
Kenwood car products generally aren't that great IMO. For an HU look at Alpine, Pioneer, Panasonic, some JVCs, Clarion.
