Here are pic's of my system that just got done,

Alpine type R 6.5 components Front and Back

12" Alpine Type-X Sub with custom Subzone ported Box

Alpine MRP-F600 4-ch amp along with Alpine MRP-M1000 1-ch MONO AMP

JL Audio Wireing


Alpine 4Ch



Alpine 2ch



Rear Alpine type R 6.5 components Also in the front.






Alpine Type X With - Subzone box


Dual 4 gauge Into 0 gauge cable

bego

0 Gauge? Can I ask why? I hope you upgraded your battery and your alternator with that size wiring for those amps...... Pretty good looking overall though; Good choice with Alpine too!!

Def glad i went with Alpine also , Sounds Amazing.

They ran two 4ga into the raptor dual fuse case and Zero out the other side to the battery. Just what the dual 200amp Fuse case required. Will be upgradeing the battery after the new year.


def a simple looking system but sounds amazing, i did not want nothing to crazy.

Nastos

looks like a tight lil box lol

bego

You said you did not want anything crazy....? I have one 10" Type R (tuned with a near perfect box for it) and it is loud... oh and I also install car audio for a living..... Type X is pretty crazy, but considering what you could have done I understand what you mean

Ya, the type X is pretty crazy loud. Especially for only one 12". I wish I could hear your system, Drew. It looks awesome. And all that power to your mids, Im sure yours sounds as clear as mine - or beter with your rear components.

Bego, I used 0 gauge too, all the way from the battery to the distributor block right next to the amps. I havent yet bought my yellow top ( might get it for xmas), and I dont plan to upgrade the alternator. I do plan to upgrade the alternator wire to the batter soon. Why whats wrong with 0 gauge, I just think it looks better than 2 4 gauges in my engine bay.

Im not saying anything is wrong with it, just wondering if its really necessary for that system... its your car though do what you want!

Def a great woofer and def doe's a great job at high volume's and bass is nice and tight.

May not be everyone's choice but to each is Owen, It works, sounds great and def well worth the money. Not looking to win any system show's SPL/SQ.

FrankH

Not sure I understand the comment. Type X not loud?

buickid

To some people, a sealed 8 on 300W might be loud, it all depends on their tastes.
Of course to me, loud is flexing the xB's roof without mercy...
No need to get nuts.

Nastos

Tecate ftw

and frank in regards to your signature (i know this is off topic) i have heard this quote before and have to disagree its a lot easier to learn how to shoot a gun than to play a couple chords on the guitar having done both myself lol

Well Put-

2nd that

FrankH

Well to me a 12" type X is loud.. Louder than 2 jl 10w3v3's with the same 1000w amp.

xseveredveganx

To my understanding, the Type X is an excellent SQ driver. I"d personally rather have one of these than a W7, but I"m not a JL fan...
But as buickid mentioned, loud is all subjective. I think 3000watts will be enough for me. For a while. :D

Now I want to hear a TypeX... They have some different technology in them as far as loudspeakers go.
