Here are some more information for Alpine Type:
The Winter Olympics are almost upon us and Lindsey Vonn and the rest of US Ski Team are prepped for some gold medal runs in Vancouver. But if you're anything like me, your only worry, as you stare over the tips of your rented skis at what could very well be the edge of the earth, is how in the world to arrive safely, limbs attached, at the bottom of the hill. A man of my meager talents cannot be troubled with things like style or method when it comes to my once-a-year trips to the ski resorts. But each time the Winter Olympics come around, I find myself glued to the television in anticipation of these ridiculously-clad athletes hurling themselves down the side of a mountain, and the amazing spectacle that Alpine Ski Racing has become.
First, the Downhill event. The objective here is fairly simple: Put your skis on and point them toward the bottom of the hill. Get there faster than anyone else. What the above objective cleverly oversimplifies is the fact that the course you are throttling through is covered in a sheen of ice and laced with hairpin turns and stomach-dropping jumps. Oh, and the course is 2 miles long, so hang on tight. It will not end as quickly as you would think. In the Downhill competition in Vancouver, Olympic skiers will take a single run through the course and the gold medal goes to the one who does it the fastest. Sounds so simple, right?
Now on to the Slalom event. You still need to go fast here. However, this time it will be mixed up a bit with a series of gates that will require quick, sharp turns in order to make it through. Yes, all while going downhill. This will be the shortest course in Vancouver, but will require the greatest amount of technical skiing ability. To win the gold, Lindsay Vonn or any of her teammates, will need the fastest combined time from 2 separate runs, each completed on a different slalom course.
Up next is the Giant Slalom. Oh, you thought you were done slaloming, eh? (I'm channeling my inner-Canadian here). This event is quite similar to the regular slalom, but it gives you a bit of break on the tight turns. In the Giant Slalom, the gates are spread further apart, allowing the skier to take wider turns as they progress down the course. Same rules apply for the gold: 2 runs on 2 separate courses. The fasted time is the winner.
Okay, now that your legs are burning from all those turns, let's talk about the Super G, or the Super Giant Slalom, a specialty for the US's Lindsey Vonn. This event is a mixture of the Downhill (go fast young men, go fast) and the Giant Slalom (I have to turn going this fast?). This course in Vancouver will be longer than the one used for the Giant Slalom, but not quite as long as the one used in the Downhill, and the good news is that you only have to do it once. Again, it is all about speed. The fastest time will win gold.
Finally - the Super Combined. Named because it combines the Downhill and the Slalom. In this event, skiers get one shot at both the downhill course and the slalom course, and the winner is the one with the fastest combined time. There it is. This begins your crash course in Alpine Skiing. How are your legs feeling? To be fair, most skiers focus on only one or two of the above events. But be sure to look for Lindsay Vonn in Vancouver as she braves the speed, the ice, and hairpin turns competing in all 5 Alpine events. That's right, you heard me all 5. The hot tub is this way, people.
Scott Duglase is a huge fan of all things sports. As for the Olympics, he is like a kid in a candy store. While he knows he could not hold a candle to the likes of the U.S. Ski Team, he is definitely looking forward to Lindsey Vonn Vancouver 2010 and her exciting race results - maybe there will be gold in her future?
Alpine Car Subwoofers: Quality and Affordability
Alpine Electronics was founded in 1967 in Tokyo, Japan as part of the Japanese Alps Electric Co, which jointed with Motorola for the new name in a new country. It currently sells navigation and audio systems for cars. Alpine, although currently not the leading company in the car audio industry, has produced many lines of successful car subwoofers, all under $300 (with the exception of a couple of lines). The looks of the subwoofers are of note. Customers have reported that Alpine subwoofers are made so both sides look fantastic. One has even rated the clean look as a weakness, as a simple installation "will not visually do it justice".
One of the more popular lines in the Alpine company, the Type-R series is also the largest: it has seven subwoofers compared to the three or four the other lines have. The Type-R series is composed of 10-inch, 12-inch, and 15-inch woofers. Alpine has really packed a whole lot into those inches, because there's power, yet it doesn't hurt like other subwoofers that sacrifice sound quality for strength. The two 15 inch products in the Type-R line are the only ones priced over $300, but that's not to say they aren't worth it. The entire line is priced as it should be, because high quality 15-inch subwoofers are actually quite difficult to find; most tend to stick to 10 and 12 inches. An owner of an SWR-1242D subwoofer (12 inches, part of the Type-R series) said that sound could be heard from the car from 2 miles away. He parked his car in a gas station and even made the shelves shake. You can get the 10-inch Type-R series for $200, the 12-inch for $220, and the 15-inch for $400.
It's probably true that the second most popular Alpine is the Type-S series. It features two 12-inch and two 10-inch woofers. Combined with Alpine's most famous products, their head units, the Type-S subwoofers are really something to deal with. As long as you supply these subs with the right power needed, you're going to get clear cut sound that blasts straight through the air. The Type-S series is priced a bit lower, ranging from $150 for the 10-inch to $170 to the 12-inch.
Alpine surely delivers not only on quality, but just plain affordability. While leaders like JL Audio might charge over $400 for their 10-inch W7, Alpine maintains a high standard of sound quality at half the price, and sometimes even takes the jump and goes for sound pressure level as well. Nearly all of the Alpine series are absolutely worth the cash because they blast really well. They match up to Kicker and MTX any day, just at a lower price that won't burn a hole in your wallet.

What is a good amp for two Alpine type r 15"s?
I plan on getting two alpine type r 15" subs. I dont know anything about how to hook them up or anything. I need to know if I should get two or four ohm subs. Also what would be some of the best amps to hook up to these subs. I thought about getting a kicker zx1500.1 would that be a good sub.
Get the 2 ohm version. Then wire it like in the diagram below. You will get 750w rms to each sub with that amp which is just what they need.
