Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2898 Registered: Jul-06 | Good amp but MTX stuff is usually overpriced for what it is, compared other good brands. |
Silver Member Username: MmaudioconceptsMurray, KY Post Number: 276 Registered: Jan-07 | overpriced and s/n ratio of 68.. |
Silver Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 558 Registered: Nov-06 | so 400 shipped for this amp is too much? |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2902 Registered: Jul-06 | holy s!it thats a ripoff, lol. You can get good amps that do 2x the power for that price. |

Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2908 Registered: Jul-06 | He can get much better quality with that budget........ look into US Amps. In fact I think low-hz sells them Kevin could prob. get ya a real nice amp for that price. |

Silver Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 565 Registered: Nov-06 | well i remember kevin trying to sell me a Sundown for 450 so i thought an MTX amp was good quality at 50 dollars cheaper |
Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18Southeast PA Post Number: 2920 Registered: Jul-06 | Sundown = WAYYYYY better than MTX. Not even in the same league. |

Silver Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 566 Registered: Nov-06 | Hey logan all of those amps you listed are rated at around 1200 watts but i need one that does 1500 at least right now im using a memphis 1100 watt amp so that would be dumb to spend extra money just for 100 watts that wouldn't be noticable so now that i think about it am i even going to notice a difference from 1100 watts to 1500 watts? |
Gold Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 4545 Registered: Feb-06 | aren't you using a prd 1000.1d? if so that kicker will do more power than it, so will the ed. don't have personal experience with the orions' so i won't comment. both the kicker and ed will be closer to 1500wrms on a good charging system. but like the others said, get the sundown amp. |
Silver Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 567 Registered: Nov-06 | yeah thats the amp im using but even though im going to go from 1100 watts to 1500 thats only a 400 watt difference so my question is "is it worth doing?" i mean will there be an audible difference or only if i got it metered because i remember lil rob telling me that for me to be able to hear the difference i had to double the power which that wouldn't be |
Silver Member Username: NorthomahaPost Number: 411 Registered: Mar-06 | hifonics bxi2006d for 340 i think. best deal |
Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 1613 Registered: Dec-06 | Wow.... 68dB s/n I had to look that up to even believe it was true. Now you have to realize that a s/n close to 70 is not audible in a car environment, and it would be nearly impossible to tell the difference between an amp with a 90dB s/n and one with around 70dB, with everything else in the system being equal. But....it is an indicator of quality engineering and the parts that are used without a doubt. I didn't realize that MTX had slipped that far but you would be hard pressed to find an amp with a noisier rating than that, assuming that rating was taken at full power and not one watt. Add in the fact that almost all manufacturers milk the crap out of their s/n ratio figures.... if that is all MTX could do, then that is one pile of shit right there. |
