Jimmy Blowout Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 Which of these or others would be best? Looking at v12 amps and type R 10s or 12s (10 prolly cuz looking for crisp response), with type r tweets/mids. Have an Alpine head unit, but see a lot of you on the Panasonic team.

PyROZen Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I pefer the JL Amps and subs over the alpines versions. Not to say alpine doesn't make excellant amplifiers, they really do. Alpine subs are really no good in my opinion, unless you get the type R (type s? whichever one is their top of the line). I am very JL-biased as well though :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98c70turbo Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I perfer JL Audio over Alpine any day I had a JL 500/1 amp one of the best mono amps for sub, and a 12 inch W6V2 sub (pretty much the baby W7). I also have the 300/4 powering all my speakers in my c70. My friend just bought two Alpine 12 inch type-s subs if you want good bass they are ok, but if you want BASS go with JL Audio!!! But its all about what you want and how much money you want to spent too I would recommend JL Audio or Eclipse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_redxc70 Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I have had both, 2 Alpine type-r 12's and 1 jl 12w7 and i must say the w7 isnt the most amazing sub ever made. the type r's are nice thought and are great for the money. as for amps i like kicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bing_0 Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 sorry, but i consider these one brand versus another brand, especially when both brands are of a high quality, to be completely pointless...when it comes to subs, when you look up and down the entire line of both alpine and jl, valid arguments can be made for either side being better, based on price, performance, quality, cosmetics, reputation, etc etc etc etc...sure, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but if your goal is to help yourself chose the "better" brand, then i would say a question such as this is a complete waste of time...whcih is why, when it comes down to choosing between different components that are at the same performance level, i do one of the followin:1. go with the one that i think looks better cosmetically2. go with the one that i think is more unique (why i would run a dls tweet versus a high line JL, even though i personally think I will enjoy both of the products almost equaly)3. which one i can get cheaper.thats it... cause all toher factors are either completely clear (amp channels, power output, depth, box requirement, etc), and can be easily decided, or completley arbituary, and can only be based on opinions...b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
