Hits the low frequencies well. I had this type S for 2 weeks and blew a coil. Sounded good, shook house windows, set alarms off. But on my amp rated max at 650w RMS it blew a coil. Which was crappy. Now upgrading to type R, that can handle more power. From what it looks like the type R Iris the way to go for an affordable good speaker or Type X if you can afford it. I would recommend doing the same, just getting a type R to begin with. I didn't know how much beefier the type R was compared to the type S until I watched a Utube video comparing the two.

I ordered this that was supposed to be a brand new unit and received junk. When I installed it, it didn’t even sound good. After further investigation I come to find a cut/tear in the speaker. You can’t even see it until the music plays and the speaker sounds weird. I am very disappointed.

I am old school. I competed back in the late 80's with Lanzar, Orion, MB Quart, and Autotek but am going back to college and had a friendly school comp. coming up. I bought this and a 1 cf sealed box. These are not as efficient as the old Lanzars. (86 vs 94db ) but the bass is tight and quick. I hit 120db in a 4 door car with the 1 sub in the truck and a rated 44 watts ( 2 x22 ) amp running mono. Actual output is 120-135 watts at 2 ohms. The bass is great. I listen to Chicago, and mostly 80's stuff with some rap/rock/metal thrown in. I used Boom Boom Pow as the test song in the comp and it rattled my teeth. The smaller the car the louder it is as there is less air to move. The bass is not super loud outside the car ( 2007 Elantra 4dr) but inside it is very good. No where near as good as the high end old school stuff but very good for the $70 I paid. Worth $125 to me.Read full review

WIth Alpine you can never go wrong!! I am currently using it for my outside surround sound and it sounds killer!! My surround sound can't even push this sub to rock yet it hits hard.
