if so what are your thoughts on tuning it, and what are you running with it?

its a good amp but not really what i would consider bang for your buck... Ive seen type S subs run off them quite a bit... its a lil to underpowered for the Type R.... Really I think it would be best paired with an Ascendant Audio Assassin for some really clean sounding bass... Those Alpine amps are a pain to adjust though. you could better spend ur money

thats what I was wondering, I am up in debate on purchasing: QTY (1) type r 4 ohm dvc and run it at 2 ohms.
Wow, I see that it is impossible to purchase an Ascendant audio subwoofer, are they really that good? any other choices for the alpine amp?since I already bought it? (only paid $80 bucks)

a 10" is only $79 but they wont be available till July 4th... but i might maybe be able to get one or 2 before that... Scott emailed me back and said that they are re-releasing the AA site on July 4th! Pretty cool i think.

oh yea? hmmm me thinks i see an application in the future... I really like those 10"s hmm maybe i'll even step up to the Arsenal line... Bill i think i am going to rely on you for this... I know ur tight with him and i think it is only right for you to pass on the rewards of that friendship ... to me of course!!! lol So yea maybe instead of getting the D6 for my Camry ill go with either 2 AAAs or 1 12AAAr
