Apine Type E OR Rockford P2s?
 
Hey everyone. just got a couple questions...first, The box I have now is a dual 12" ported bassworx enclosure. (2.8 Cu. ft) I think P2s are best with the enclosure that I have but which one do you guys think would be better?

Alpine Type E? or Rockford P2s? alpine is 250RMS and P2s are 200RMS.

I heard the P2s and they seem to hit hard but I never heard the Type E's yet.

secondly, amp is going to be running at 2 ohms and Im planning to get the MRP-M650 (600 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms) Will this be too much for the type e's or P2s to handle? how do you know when enough is enough?

thanks

well i never heard either....but from what i heard p2 hits hard
i previously heard a p1 and couldn't believe it was only rated @ 150 rms

id say alpine type s has wayy better quality and ive heard many type s setups and their pretty shocking

Fresh_Prince 02-17-2007 01:14 AM

im sure alpine E and S have both better quality then the P2

yea, type S is amazin but I dont know if I can afford it, thats why im thinking about getting type E or P2s. Its hard to make decision cause I never heard the Type Es before... :(

type s subs are cheap man... go to number one sound he will hook you up

Fresh_Prince 02-17-2007 09:01 PM

yea number 1 sound is great
ps u can hear and compare both subs

if you are on a budget i would try buying them used
i have seen 2 12" type Rs (06 models) going for 200 on craiglist

I have a pair of 12 " p2's used them last summer... They sounded nice... Alot of subs sound better when the box is custom made with the proper air volume ratio. So if you're going to buy an expensive premium brand sub. might as well get the real sound it was made to give.. The specs on the p2's say that they're made to perform best in small sealed enclosures.

My subs are still mint. I'm upgradin to p3's so Make an offer on my subs if ur interested.
