When buying an amp, this is usually a vital piece of information

MTX makes a few different Lines of woofer. Need to know which one you have.

That amp will over heat if you run your subs in Parallel Mono.

It says it's 2 Ohm stable..but don't believe the hype It will see 1 Ohm on each side of the amp. I reccomend looking at Rockford Fosgate amps if price is the deciding factor. For the money you get the most out of their Punch Amps.

Any "Car audio guru" would laugh at you for using those components.

so what? I'm not trying to have the best sounds possible, just something decent, fuckstick

**B Sandwich** · 08-11-2004, 07:22 PM

and btw the subs are the cheaper, lower end model. not much wattage.

**Jimmie** · 08-11-2004, 07:26 PM

ive got a bigger amp than that pushing my 6 1/2 MB Quartz components, that are in my doors.

6x9's in the back, and i bet my system sounds 3 times as good as those 12's ever will...

it may sound better but people are still going to laugh at your sorry ass rolling in an 82 camaro with your mullet flowing through the t-tops.

**TurboTrucker** · 08-11-2004, 08:27 PM

What ohms are the subs? You can get a much better deal on an amp from Ebay.

**TurboTrucker** · 08-11-2004, 08:29 PM

Yeah cause everyone knows 6x9s put out mega bass.

Why you gotta take offense then? You asked for gurus......You got one and I pretty much answered your question as well.

You should be thanking me for my honest input instead of being a dick.

i reccomend running those off a punch amp. ( need to make sure you have a good enclosure for the subs)

In bridge-mono You will not be dissapointed for the money.

I sold stereos professionaly for 6 years and I was a sanctioned IASCA Judge

Ive got 2 sets of Mb quart 6.5's in my car with a 7 channel Phoenix Gold Titanium Amp. Along with 2 12" Subs and a Center Channel. Sounds Incredible. Thing is, I dont think you need that much power for the MB quarts. I have 50rms to each.

The key is clean power.

no. the question was if the amp was good enough to push the subs. In turn, you said that I would be laughed at for my components. If by components you mean my subs and amp, you are a fucking idiot. What does my sub quality have to do with the question? nothing. and no, you didn't even come close to answering the question, and provided no alternate solution.

kill yourself, you'd be better off coming back as a lobster.
