i currently have two 12" kicker L7's in a super bass probox powered by a kicker KX1200.1 amp wired at 2 ohms...

im lookin at getting three 10" MTX subs (5500 series)
im wondering if anyone has a similar setup with MTX, and if they are good reliable subs that hit hard, and the right amp to get to power the subs (preferable an mtx amp)

The 12's would probably be louder, but I like the sound MTX subs more than kicker.

Come on Chauncey, there isn't TOO many negative things except the fact that you can get a better sub for alot less $$$$.

those look like subs that just need alot of power, thats one reason why im tryin to get away from kickers cause they require so much power, while the mtx's sound good on not so much power

I'd say get a 15" FI Q. It will be perfect with your amp.


If you want mtx and nothing else, get 2 8515, it will be nice setup...

"those look like subs that just need alot of power"

Those FI subs are super efficient..

Don't you already have an amp?!?!?

The kicker KX1200.1 tha t you have, is a very good amp.

mtx's arent to bad there failure rate is not very high like a lot of other subs but ill b honest there not worth it unless your getting the 7500's or the 8500's even the 9500's arent worth it. and i own the 7500's and will tell you right now there good but not that good theres so much better out there so look into some other brands b4 you buy. trust me.



oh yes and do it right the first time or you'll just regret it like the rest of us cause its just a waste of money
