Alpine type R are decent speakers, yes. Since you're talking about subs, I suggest a mono amplifier. Type R's are rated for 300 watts RMS I believe, so I suggest you need an amp capable of 600 watt RMS into whatever impedence load you create with the subs.

Type R subs have a nice balance between SQ and SPL, and they are price is good, unless you buy them from circut city where therices are a little steep (but you can often times geta free sub box or something, depending on what promotion they happening to be running.
