Yo all,

I need some help, see, my dad bought these 15" MTX road thunder subs like in 1992, and now he's forgotten how to wire the subs up. I would like to know what Amp would be suitable to pump these babies to their max? My dad used to have it connected to 2 Kenwood Amps and to another 658 Battery to power it, but it didn't output that well. So if any of you have any ideas, please post. I just got my Skyline, and I'm really excited to shuv these subs in, so please respond A.S.A.P.

Thanks.

No, they're open, I've always had it like that, I don't want to use a box though, just to connect it up freely. I just want to know a brilliant amp for it, the price don't matter.

also are they DVC subs or SVC subs.

this amp should be good if they are SVC subs just bridge the 1/2 channels and the 3/4 channels.

Shot, I owe you one dude. Another thing, what brand altogeter is better? Is it rockford, or Pioneer, Or Kenwood etc...

it really depends on how much you want to spend.
some good brands would be Kicker, JL Audio, Adire, JBL ect. Rockford is ok I like their older products better then their new ones. Pioneer makes pretty good head units but thats about it. and Kenwood you want to STAY AWAY FROM.

Like I said before, price ain't a problem. So MTX is good then?

MTX is a OK brand. Lot of better brands out there. If you really want some good spl and sq you should get a adire shiva and a JBL 600.1 amp and you would be set up. The shivas get some real good lows and they just sound plain out great.

you shouldn't be running subs free-air like that.
there's no damping and you'll destroy them.
besides, they'll sound lousy that way regardless of the amp you use.
the box has a huge effect on how the subs will sound.
