You realize for 4 alpine type-R 10" subs you will need an amp that can continuously push about 2100 Watts RMS, right?  Like, you're talking probably like $1000 in just the amp.  I hope you have thick glass or you could be blowing out your windows...

Ya I know they can, I have 1 type-R 10" in my WRX and it can rattle the windows at 550 watts RMS...4 type-R's in a cab?  (I assume that is what you mean by truck)  Sounds stupidly ridiculous to be honest.

I love them and they hit HARD...thats why I was asking if he has heard them before.  If you read what I said, I have 1 10" Type-R and it can rattle the windows in my WRX...and he wants 4 in a cab.
