So i've got two basic choices for my subwoofers! Either i get ONE alpine type R 12 inch sub that goes for about $100 or i get 2 Kenwood 12" subs for $45 bucks each. What should i do??? Any other ideas? my budget is around $100 for the subs so try to keep it in that range... Thank you!

Here's what I'm about to do:

Alpine 500w Monoblock Amp
Alpine Type R 12" Ported Box

And enjoy the rattling. The amp can be found at best buy for like $200 now.

I literally have this exact setup but my box is a bi chamber one that cost me 500$ for someone to build.

And for the guy who says alpine is garbage there's something seriously wrong with you. With my setup I have ( the box makes it sound this good ) it hits harder than anyone I know with diamonds or kenwoods. You get what you pay for why else would the Type R cost 250 new ? It's one of the most expensive you can buy at a audio store or best buy.


And for the mononlock amp grt the rms-500 alpine it's like 200$ at best buy. It was 350 when I bought it tho.
