10" Type-R Install - Toyota Yaris Forums

bdc87 · 02-18-2009, 07:36 PM

I've had this in for about 2 months and have been lazy in posting some pics so here you go. 10" Alpine Type-R in a Custom box powered by an Alpine M500. Plenty of power but a nice clean response. So it doesn't move I have it monuted with L brackets through the trunk cover.

Nice... but its no Type X.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Nice woofer!

Hah Type X, I would need a new Alt.

ChinoCharles · 02-18-2009, 07:50 PM

I know.

definitely dont need a new alt for something rated at 1000rms, just some self control. I admire tight little 10" systems like this. They're small and compact and respond quickly but I just cant live without the earth rumbling lows. How is it?

It's great and about 2.5X better then the 12" RE Audo sub I had. I have the bass set at 0 on the deck and the gain +.5 on the amp and that alone is plenty for me. I've done +6 on the deck once and it was hard to breathe.

About the Alt, with my other amp for my componets I'm running around 700rms but I would never put a Type X in a car of this size.

yea that's why I love small cars, a little goes a long way and a lot goes all the way. I unhooked my rear components recently and free up some watts there and like I expected there's no difference at all.

Lookin' good, not too big not too small!

We gotta meet up sometime soon and do another mini Yaris meet again.

Yeah that works for me!

I always thought an Alpine 10" Type-R in a sealed box would be the PERFECT match in a Yaris Hatchback.

Nice pic!

I had an Alpine Type-R in my last car and I loved it. It packed a nice punch for a small sub, and my car was bigger than the Yaris, so I imagine it would be all you would want in a LB.
