Alpine Type R in Trans Am

[rippinta]

I am going to be putting an Alpine Type R in a small stealthbox in my Transam, should I get a 4 ohm single voice coil, or 4 ohm dual voice coil, or 2 ohm single? I will most likely be getting a 2 channel amp or a mono amp.

Well if you get the dual 4 ohm you'll be able to run it at 2 and 8 ohms. If you get the dual 2 ohm you can run it at 4 and 1 ohm. I would get the dual 4 ohm and run it at 2 ohms. They are power hungry and will want 400-600 watts RMS. A JBL 600.1 or an Alpine MRD-M500 would run it nicely.
