Gold Member Username: TheelfkeeperStockbridge, GA USA Post Number: 1396 Registered: Feb-05 | yeah, look at Ascendant Audio, RE Audio, Treo, Sound SPlinter....and various other companies online for a lot of bass on a budget. they don't have the price tag for the name like JL Audio, just the product, lol. MTX 9500's aren't that great. but for an amp, try and get a 1 channel (mono class D). look at Hifonics if you are on a budget. |
New member Username: HighstonePost Number: 5 Registered: Mar-06 | brandon . . can you specify some model #s for the subs.. cuz i'm really new at this audio thing.. i'm gonna need lots of help and ideas.. would you recomend SX like Rovin told me to check out.. thanks.. |
Silver Member Username: Baseball1187Columbia, SC Post Number: 632 Registered: Dec-04 | lol guys come on.. the 9500 is not a BAD sub lol. it's the only sub MTX makes that is worth a crap. Sure, it's no W7, and yes, there's a lot better for the money, but it's not a BAD sub... btw, how many of yall have actually heard the 9500? |
