Our take on the Alpine KTE-12G

by John Pollard

Protect your investment with the stylish and tough KTE-12G grille for 12" Alpine Type-R and Type-S subwoofers. This black steel mesh grille fits the subwoofer perfectly and mounts using the screw holes already in place on the subwoofer. The included Alpine Type-R and Type-S logos are an excellent finishing touch for your installation. Warranty: 1 year.

Works great

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Covers worked great. Easy to install and very sturdy. I can wack these covers with my hand and everything is left undamaged. Subs and the cover. I would recommend these to anyone looking to protect your subs while also trying to have a nice slick look. The type r and s emblem that comes with the grill gives it a great touch! Well worth the money.
Pros:
Looks great and I don't have to worry about my subs being scratched anymore.
Cons:
If you are super tight on room they might come out a little too much.

Perfect grille

Written By SethL, Jeffersonville, IN on Friday, October 05, 2012
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Well the Type E subs used to come with grilles, they no longer do. These do fit the new Type Es. The badges are easily left off so they look like the previous mesh grille. You have to use the Type S mounting hardware as they are the same structurally as the Type E. would be nice to have a type E badge with it. All in all a quality product again from Alpine.
Pros:
Fits all 12" Alpine subs with HAMR surround.
Cons:
No type E badge

Grill should come with the sub!!!!

Written By Casper, Florida on Sunday, July 01, 2012
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
I give it 3 cause its a pain to mount, and price I think it should come with the subs .Like the Type E .I mount my subs with t nuts 1/4 20's so I had to down size them to fit the grill.Come on alpine toss them in with the subs !!!!!!!!
Pros:
Will protect your sub and everyone will know its a type r with the included badge
Cons:
Price and mounting without using their include wood screws witch is a bad idea for MDF if you plan on pulling your sub for tuning ect.
