Alpine shallow mount subs
 

anybody know if these are any good? im thinking of making a FG enclosure for my z... i have my mdf ring coming in already... originally i was gonna use my JL W3 but not enough clearance so im going to be using a shallow mount sub instead... since JL only makes a 13 shallow mount which costs like 500 bucks... thats totally outa the budget range for me.

Id like to keep everything uniform therefore if i get this ill get all alpine components and i already have a alpine amp so it kinda works out :tup:

guys if you can point me to the place i can buy this sub i will love you forever lol its a new shallow mount from JL audio and its a twelve :tup:

Sir
have heard nothing bad or good about the Alpines. I can tell you, i would save for the JL.. I currently have one in my Z, and when i say it makes a world of difference, truly an amazing speaker. I would wait and get the JL...

:tiphat::tiphat:

i LOVE JL audio man... im pretty sad i gotta get rid of my W3 V3 it definitely made me a happy camper... i actually wanted to do a all JL set up even up to the wires... im wondering when that sub will come out JL 12TW3 but if its next year i dont think i can wait that long

i also found this i havent bought rockford in 10 years since i was in highschool anyone care to shed some light on me about rockford?

i run 2 of the P3S 10's they sound good, and have a good amount of out put, more then any shallow 10 i've heard.

alrigthht man!!!! thats a good thing since im looking for a affordable sub :tup:

I currently run ths Soundstream stealth 13" and I love it. Pioneer also makes a very good shallow mount in their premier line, and more recently their "championship" shallow mount (which is basically the same sub)
The Soundstream was around $250
The pioneer can be had for around $150

ill look into those subs man thanks :tup:

+1 for shallow pioneer subs.

I installed a 12" Shallow sub behind the seat of my friends Tacoma 4 door.

It BUMPS. And the box, sub, and amp, all fit behind the seat within 4" of room.

is that the sub you guys are talking about? they are price friendly also :happydance:

Thats the one! I believe my friends was somewhere between $100-150. Once you know the model you want, you can just search for the cheapest one.

I have thought about adding a shallow 10" to my Z. It would be just the right amount of bass.

Hehe

lol I am actually considering buying one of those pioneers just to try it. I'm really not what you would call "brand loyal", I get what works for me, no matter what name is on it. By the way, I just saw the SS sub at onlinecarstereo for $149

i have that pioneer sub in my current set-up. Its not a bad sub. clean and not "boomy". it seems pretty durable as well. I put groceries on it and have taken it to its limit many times. I want something a little louder in the future but am satisfied with my purchase for now...
