I got some Alpine 1629S's (6.5" fronts) for my car today.
these speakers sound AWESOME in my car! I reccomend these to anyone getting new fronts!

they should go nicely with my alpine deck, 6x9's in the rear, and my V12 amp running it all

 

I'm unofficially sponsored by Honda. I have a Civic HB.

 

2 V12's are better than 1 V12.

 

aren;t those the cheapest line of the alpine speakers?

 

probably, but you know what....you dont need to spend big bucks to get great sound.

 

i need to be sponsored by alpine, i ahve thier typer 6 3/4 components, typer 6 1/2 coaxials, 2 alpine amps, and a typer 15' sub.. how do i go about getting sponsored?

 

those zr subs are their oldschool good subs, they are actually very nice. goodluck getting sponsered by alpine unless you are about to drop thousands of dollars and hours into your system.

 

just write them a letter asking them how you would go about getting a sponsorship

 

You need to win a lot of car audio events and even then it's almost impossible to get sponsored by /////Alpine. You really have to know someone on the inside almost to even get your foot in the door. It's easier for someone that works for a store that sells Alpine (not Circuit City), I mean a custom stereo store that doesn't look at just making numbers but producing quality installs. When I used to go to Alpine training it's much easier to meet the Alpine reps and to get your foot in the door that way. I never have been sponsored by them but they used to flow me many products in the past.

 

Listen to him!!

It takes a very well known track record, and even that won't be enough. Most people who are "sponsored" or are on the factory team get a discount, not a free ride. It's the guys who you see on the podium at all the top SQ/SPL events who are going to get sponsorships.

In the meantime....enjoy your system, sounds like you like it alot and I bet it sounds great.

Really? I bought the whole system for $800 second hand. The preson that had it before me paid $5,500 to have Sound Advice do all the custom work. I think I got a pretty good deal.

It sounds awesome. I have a hard time not turning it up.

Anyone got more info on these ZR subs? They don't say Alpine on them anywhere, I figured they were maybe just lower end stuff... but I always wondered because they sounds *amazing*.

 

i dont remember exactly but i think the subs are like 5+ years old.

 

They're actually 4 years old, +- 6 months...
