I know in higher-up models, the components that go into making the speakers and crossovers get better. What i am wondering is why are the Alpine Type-R crossovers so cheap?

Im referring to a parts site(that alpine has on its webpage for part suppliers) that has the crossover for $27. Is that "cheap" for crossovers? I know Type-R speakers arent the most expensive on the market but still that seems a little under priced, unless the crossovers for type-rs arent that good. The next model up was $76 for the Type X Reference model crossover. Big jump from $27

 

It depends on how many they buy. Or if the company that sells them is giving them a break. It does not have to be a $100 cap just to be good
