Poor realiability, severely over-rated, not advisable.

hmm id go with a kx1200.1 or bp1200.1 instead of the thunder1501d

theyre much more flexible with different impedance levels especially the bp1200.1

Um....well. The JBL 1200.1 is a little more flexible in that it can produce 1200W at 2 or 1ohm.

KX1200.1 just has different specs 300wx1(4ohm), 600Wx1(2ohm), and 1200Wx1(1ohm). I wouldn't say it was more "flexible" The MTX in my opinion has an advantage as it puts out more power @ less resistance. 750W(4ohm), 1500W(2ohm). Just depends on the application and what subs you get.

That's why I say Jacob....AGAIN....pick out your freakin subs FIRST!!! Then get the right amp. :-)
How do you plan on setting the subs up in you '69 El Camino?

jacob....if i where you i'd go w/ a pair of shivas and a JBL BP600.1...or if you have room 4 shivas and a BP1200.1.

that would be a good setup.

You dont think the MTX 1501d will do a good enough job or u just recomend JBL?

Truth is the MTX 1501d wouldn't power 4 of them properly, and for 2, it would be too much power.
If you want 2, stick with the Kicker KX600.1 or JBL 600.1. If you want 4 use the JBL BP1200.1 or Kicker KX1200.1

Do not try to power 2 Shivas and 2 MTX subs off the same amp. If you want to run 2 differen't kinds of subs, you need to use 2 different amps IMO.

OK...now tell me.. what kind of amp/amps should i get to run 2 Shivas, 2 MTX subs and the MTX Trio.. I think i'm going to run a JBL BP 1200 for the 2 MTX subs and the MTX Trio but what should i use to run the shivas? something that would do the job and be cheap like in 100-200 dollas cheap mabey lil over

I only compete w/ my brother.

You're nuts dude. You want to run the Good amp to the "so-so" subs and you want a cheap amp for the Shivas. Yes I said get the subs first, then the amps, but that doesn't mean to go and make a bad decision on the amps.
Why the hell do you want that many subs anyway? Maybe it's just a maturity thing, but I try to keep my ride as quite as possible on the outside.

First of all, can you tell me/us what model the MTX subs are?

OK mazda i didnt mean like a crappy amp for the shivas.. less u think i can only get a crappy one for round that price. but i want somethin that can push em good..According to you guyz it dont take much to push em thats why i didnt think of anything high for an amp with em..

Okay, I might have went off a little bit, my sincere appologies.

What model are the MTX subs so we can figure what they'll need to run if you even need them.

You're looking to spend about $260 on the Amp for the Shivas (at least for the ones I would use) which would be the Kicker KX600.1, MTX 801d, XTANT A6001
