Default New Subwoofers!

So after being stored all winter I thought my car needed something to spruce it up! Since I may be selling her at the end of next summer I decided to go with something that can be taken out and saved for my next car.

Set up:
2 10" Alpine Type-R's (12's wouldn't fit easliy )
1 Jl Audio 500/1 JX Amp
Sealed box with grills to protect the cones
Note: Just went with the regular sealed box and not a stealthbox or custom box for the same reason I got the subs, can be transferred to a new car more easily!

Used to have a few sets of those speakers, I remember a guy with the screen name speakerman I think was in love with those. He could hit high 140's or low 150's with a single type-r on 1000-1500rms. Those subs are beast entry levels.

Yeah after two days I'm in love, I mean I don't know about you guys but that setup has the entire car vibrating at half volume, to scared to turn it all the way up, not to mention it'd deafen me!
