haha alpine OWNS haha

What's wrong with alpine Sunny? Let me see Keith.

Need some input here. Is this 12 good for like metal and rock music. I ver rarely listen to any kinda rap. Just wondering?

sunten1 - December 6, 2006 06:11 AM (GMT)
If I were you Bill I would stick with a Sealed box for rock, just because it will be able to hit the notes better in there instead of a ported box...

sunten1 - December 6, 2006 06:12 AM (GMT)
I don't like Alpine.
Because its wayyy over priced.

Suicidalspd99 - December 6, 2006 06:32 AM (GMT)
Ahh I c I have 2 12s now. Just no amp and Not quite sure how to hook it to a stock head unit.

sunten1 - December 6, 2006 03:32 PM (GMT)
IIRC you have to tap into the rear speakers and use that to send the signal to your amp.

will play some rock for u in my car next sunday...it sounds awsome

Suicidalspd99 - December 6, 2006 06:21 PM (GMT)
k sounds good.

Skierxx5556 - December 6, 2006 09:53 PM (GMT)
I agree with sunny on going sealed for rock it wont be as loud as a ported box but will def sound better and have more punchyness. As far as alpine being the best there are def better options out there if your not happy with the single 12 what makes you think 2 10's are going to be better? I would look into another brand if you are looking to get something else.... What are the reasons you dont like the 12 and what are you looking to do with the new set up? If you tell me then I can recomend some awsome subs....

Keith likes SPL not SQ. He has hearing aids on pre-order.

Theres still much better out there for SPL than Alpine.

Black Maxima - December 7, 2006 03:34 AM (GMT)
I know that. But that's what he wants...

sunten1 - December 7, 2006 07:09 AM (GMT)
He just wants Alpine so when people ask him what he is running he can say Alpine 12s instead of Acendent Audio, or someother non-big-named-brands

Suicidalspd99 - December 7, 2006 07:21 AM (GMT)
I have kenwood tyhoons ina band pass those hit real hard.

sunten1 - December 7, 2006 07:31 AM (GMT)
BP = FTL

Suicidalspd99 - December 7, 2006 07:36 AM (GMT)
^^ y?
I mean I can hook up audio and such but I guess I am not into it like you guys. I think we need a audio thread on like god and not good.

sunten1 - December 7, 2006 03:13 PM (GMT)
BP - is bad IIRC because it basically echos the sound or something. I forgot exactly why but basically a BP is a ported box with some plexi glass on the side so you can see the subs, well that plexi glass is no where near as strong as wood is, which will create flexiing which is the last thing you want to happen in a box

Suicidalspd99 - December 7, 2006 05:32 PM (GMT)
Ahh I see all wise Sunny.

Skierxx5556 - December 7, 2006 06:16 PM (GMT)
Actually bandpass done correctly can sound very loud and good just like a ported box, but most of the time people dont look into building one for themselves and just get a POS prefab one and thats where you get the shitty sounding box.

Skierxx5556 - December 7, 2006 06:21 PM (GMT)
keith if you really want a sub thats gunna wang and sound fucking good doing it I would look at these http://cgi.ebay.com/10-IDMAX-10D4-Image-Dy...oQQcmdZViewItem

They can take 1000 watts all day no prob and will rip the doors off your car.

I have heard really good things about these as well
