New member Username: Hex0rzPost Number: 4 Registered: Oct-05 | This absolutely perturbs me. I don't understand the difference between these name brand subwoofers I see at Car Toys or anywhere else compared to these subs I see on the net and stores. such as: www.electronixwarehouse.com The best subwoofer I could find is the SPL sub for $180. Look at the wattage on this sub. Why would I be paying this much for that sub? All I have as of now is 2 MTX 4500's. I just wonder if I made a bad decision buying these subs when I may have been able to buy this "generic" sub and get way better bass. Anyone care to elaborate? |

Gold Member Username: SouthernrebelMonroe, Louisiana USA Post Number: 1479 Registered: Mar-04 | what other appealing things? that site doesnt give you any REAL info on the sub...ex: T/S parameters. |

New member Username: Hex0rzPost Number: 6 Registered: Oct-05 | I'm a very skeptical person too about the quality of these subs. That is why I asked. I considered the fact that the magnet was large and the rubber surround also. Then I figured it must have good bass when you combine it with the power handling. I was merely curious on what others thought about these subs. I was by no means serious of buying these type of subs. Let me ask this instead. Who here, besides me, thinks that the reason why these subs are cheap is because of the material it was fabricated from? I mean, if you make a sub with poor materials, you will get poor sub quality. Right? |
