We put out 8500 15" install on an mtx 800w amp heads up against an L7 15" w/ a memphis 1100w. the 8500 walked all over the L7. Sounded much better and was 2dB+ louder! |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana DD 9515d~~]... Post Number: 5009 Registered: Mar-04 | both subs were in ~4.25cuft tuned to 36hz. |
Silver Member Username: Kicker101Alberta Post Number: 110 Registered: Nov-05 | ha i know its just kinda funny......but i have another question. I was looking at ebay a while ago and i saw two 12" alpine type r's. It said 600watts rms(nothing wrong there) but then it said 1500 watts max(does that even make sense) wouldnt it be 1200 watts max? and even at that can subs really reach the max power without distortion or blowing? or is it just a marketing thing? |
Silver Member Username: CriedErie, PA US Post Number: 366 Registered: Jun-07 | type R"s are 500rms and 1500max, max doesnt really mean anything, its a marketing thing, but type R's can well excede 500rms easily. |
Silver Member Username: Kicker101Alberta Post Number: 112 Registered: Nov-05 | i dont get that why would they do that? so how much do u think i could toss at my L7's 850wtts a piece? |
Silver Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 647 Registered: Nov-06 | i really doubt both subs specifications call for a 4.25 cuft enclosur tuned to 36 HZ so im sure one of the subs had an advantage |
Silver Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 648 Registered: Nov-06 | im gonna try and give each one of mine 1000 watts and see what happens they should hold up if not thats when i got the warranty to kick in |
Silver Member Username: YukhuiMyrtle Beach, South Carolina USA Post Number: 464 Registered: Jan-06 | I've had a 15" MTX 8500 which i got new for $260 no warranty. I compared it to a 15" Razor Audio sub which i got for $119 brand new warranty and although we couldn't meter it, to ear it kicked the sh!t out of the 8500... |
Silver Member Username: BasssquaredKansas Post Number: 650 Registered: Nov-06 | so your saying then if Cannan is right that a Razor Audio sub that you can get for 119 new will sound louder than a MTX 8500 and a kicker L7 |
