I think you're wrong about the MTX's. They're very well-priced, and the quality is top notch, not to mention a LIFETIME WARRENTY. If it breaks, they replace it no matter what. Can't beat that. They are easily better than some overpriced Solarbarics or anything like it.

The amps are also very dependable, not to mention they look great with those lights on the ends. My system is easily one of the hardest hitting in the area, and for the space, the db's it reaches is amazing. I've yet to get it metered, but it's intense. It all has to do with the right combination of subs and amp, and powering them accordingly is what gives it that extra kick for certain lower notes.

I did my fair amount of research before getting them, as I was set on either the Solarbarics or R9's, but the guy who installed my stuff highly recommended the MTX Thunder series, so I couldn't say no. Dude knows what he's talkin about too; he's rated in the top-ten installers in the country. Just in his tiny little shop, he's done some SERIOUS installs to Hummers that still blow my mind. It's all good though, but MTX is highly underrated, and is actually making some noise now that the word is out about how much power some of their subs pack at such a fair price.
