btw, price match at FS. They'll match and beat the difference by 10%. The sub is $300 at FS so the difference is $200. 10% of that is $20, so each sub will be $80.
wow.

Hard to tell for sure unless you try it out. Either way you should be able to return it. There might even be a serial number you can check on the sub and the box to see if they match. I'm not 100% Alpine puts serial numbers on their subs.

Can anyone recommend me an amp? I currently have a 2 channel amp powering my 2 components up front. Since I now have this sub, I didn't plan for it before and now i'll need an amp to power it. I don't want to buy a 2nd amp because i'll have to rerun some wire thru the firewall and doing that once is enough for a lifetime. I would rather replace my 2 channel amp with a 4 channel and bridge 2 of the channels to power the Type R. It's RMS power is rated at 500 watts. Can anyone recommend me an amp to power the sub?
thanks

thanks | We have some new and used amps that maybe we could do a trade on. What kind of 2 channel do you have?
