You usually get what you pay for with speakers, I would want to hear them before handing over the cash. JB normally have speakers on the board so you can demo them? I think it comes down to what sounds best to you for how much you want to spend. Just because there alpine doesnt make them the best choice, however they may well be just what your after.

Compared to the type s splits the are 10w RMS less.. Apart from that it's all the same. But your looking at $250 for the type S vs $129 for the type G. And yeah I'd never heard of the type G before either until today only Type S, R and X
