I have decided that i am going to get 12 inch Alpine Type R subs. The only problem is... I have a blown right front speaker and my back left speaker isent even working. My question is What Speakers should i get? and what Amp should i get that would go best with these subs?

Why do you need two? Do you want the car next to you to hear you?

Yeah pretty much... my cousin has two of these too, And they pound really hard.

since these subs are 4 ohm DVC, you only have 3 ways to wire them. First is a 16 ohm load (not recommended), this is accomplished by wiring both voice coils per sub in series then the two subs in series. Second is a 4 ohm load (recommended but will be expensive). This is accomplished by 2 ways, wiring the Voice coils in parallel making each sub 2ohm, then wiring both subs in series to create 4ohm total or just the opposite, wiring the voice coils in series to 8ohm each then the subs together in parallel for 4ohm final load.  Lastly these DVC subs can be wired for a 1 ohm load. Not many amplifiers out there are 1 ohm stable and the only one that best buy carries is a the rockford fosgate P1000-1BD which is 1000w stable at 1 ohm.  For 2 Type-Rs, these guys need 500w RMS per sub, so 1000 total. The Fosgate that bestbuy sells (P1000-1BD) would be the best solution for these two subs together. OR you could try to find a 1000w RMS 4ohm amp elsewhere...might be cheaper who knows, but not at best buy
