Power Alpine Type-X Sub 10"

[Lincolnpimpin]

Sup Yall, recently got a Alpine Type-X Sub 10" off Ebay and I need some direction to what a amp would be good enough to power it. As of now I think I probly end up geting Alpine MRD-M1005.

Subs Specs
1000 Watts RMS
3000 Watts Peak Power
4 ohms
10"

depends on what you want i am a JL, Memphis and Alpine fan.. You can do a JL 500/1 they run about $450. Memphis also has 500X1 model no#16-MCD500 and Alpine has a digital Amp the MRD-M605 for around 400 all of these amps are Class D Mono Block down to 2ohm stable. good luck and thats a great sub you bought

what kind of box are u put them in.

One of my buddies and I are going to make a custom box for it.

I think this is what I'm gonna do now. Get 2 MRP-M650 and bridge them and that equals 1x1000 watts RMS w/ 4 ohms. Its perfect I blieve and it will only cost me about $435.00 so I save $165.00.

be very careful when u do that. you can easily fry the amps and even the sub.

i would spend that money and just buy one mono or ch channl amp pushing 500 or 700 rms x2 in a 4 ohm or
1000 rms in a 2ohm by 1channel.

more power for the subs , means more power to spend on amps
u can hold back because of dollars.

That would be a better idea instead of bridging them.
