Alpine Type-R SWR-12D2

Very poor product and poor (no) service – Don't ever buy alpine!!!!! Have car full older (not ancient) alpine stuff and has always been good. But the new alpine products are very poorly built and put together. Many many reviews of people with new alpine subs that blown up and I know why. I just bought a new alpine type r and the actual speaker is pushed over to one side of the basket, alot of people don't notice this and if you don't notice this and use the sub the way it is the coil will be on an angle and that means the bottom of the coil will rub on the inside of the motor sleeve and get hot and eventually burn out sooner than later unless you are a pansy and also an imbecile and didn't notice the poor quality and send it back for a refund like I did. The only good thing was that the dealer I bought mine from was willing to give refund. But alpine was not willing to send another subwoofer out. Alpine is a rip off joke. DO NOT BUY unless you like Russian roulette with your hard earned money. Spend a bit more and buy a rockfords forsgate power t2 subwoofer, these are way better and more powerful and they hit like a much bigger sub. When comparing the forsgate 12 you need to compare with alpine 15 inch pretty much.
