absolutely. alpine is a clean sounding sub my friend. JL audio, Kicker, or Alpine would really be all I purchase.

he just said he doesnt need crazy bass, Type S will be just fine i mainly listen to metal and that sub is perfectly fine for it. If your just going for clarity i would change everything over to boston acoustic but any of the major brands will be just fine anyways. alipine type s is pretty cheap compared to some anyways.
