I was looking around for a nice deep bass sub. where it hits very hard. I'm looking at the alpine type x and all the reviews says it hits really hard. Im going for SQ and not SPL. I then looked on this site for previous posts about alpine type x and its mixed emotions. I've seen some posts that talk about other subs blowing a type x out of the water with a harder deeper hit. CAn anyone tell me what subs hit harder then a type x? ..Im looking to push about 400rms watts. budget isnt really a problem if i get what i pay for..if i gotta spend 50 bucks for something that is going to last me twice as long or give me 50%more Sq then something else...i might as well just spend the extra 50....anyways...anyone know anything that hits harder then a type x?

I guess that guy has subs.

while the choice of sub is very important its also about the type of enclosure you put it in. I own 2 MYX 8500s which are much better than alpine type X in my opinion and im on my 3rd different box for them. And yes im going for a SQ setup too. You might have to experiment with the box types as well. Good luck!

Eclipse aluminum and titanium series will work nice in this application, real real nice actually.

judging by ur creditals forbidden..... i think im going to go with Eclipse aluminum and titanium series . =)

I've seen eclipses but wasn't sure if it was a good brand or not. I started to see more and more posts that have high end stuff pop the name up so im guessing its a good brand. It is hard and deep correct? Not looking to blow my windows out just to make my chest hit the windshield =)

Thanx for the feedback..forbidden and killer sonata....appreciate the replies

Ill also throw a vote in for eclipse, but only for their titaniums. If you arent too concerned about the price through, you should take a look at focals subs. They have always been known for their high end equipment. Im running some of their speakers. I wish i had the cash for their subs and amps.

thats the correct ones you guys are talking about correct? Im geting 2 10"s because i heard 12"s have a little lag sometimes and doesnt hit as hard..is that just a myth?

I really like the Alpine Type X...It's more about enclosure and I've heard the Type X in the right one and it hits real quick, deep, and hard.

I also like the Eclipses also though...they're high end equipment is pretty good...I like their amps.

My friend has two Type X 12's in a vented box...I forget the tuning though...Powered by two MRD-1005's...So at full blast about 1000 watts a piece.

Sounds clean and quick...and can get LOUD...very LOUD.
