Well, I can get buy one get one free on two different types of subs.

the first is any of the MTX subs on this page:
http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/Search.do?c=1&searchType=user&keyword=MTX+subs+for+car+audio&searchSection=All&c=1&cm_re=main%20marquee-_-Spring%20forward%20with%20new%20car%20gear-_-Buy%20one,%20get%20one%20free%20on%20select%20MTX% 20subs

the second are Total Mobile Audio 10" subwoofers.
now these are supposedley made by JL, but they seem kinda cheap... i would have listened if they had them out in a box at the store, but they just had them boxed up, not hooked up or anything. has anyone ever heard these?
http://www.totalmobileaudio.com/products_subs.php?sub_id=416

there's the link for those subs.

thanks!

I personally don't like MTX, and the Other just seems like a low end garbage Sub.:rolleyes:

I'd rather spend the money and go with Elemental Designs Subs (https://www.edesignaudio.com/index.php?cPath=1_21):D

You should also probably take a look a what your Sub Box calls for in terms of volume and Sub size;) You've show us a 10" and 12" Sub selection, and given no details as to the box. That will also help to determine the right Sub;)

Yesterday, I had a dude try to tell me that "BUMPER" brand subs are the best in the world.

Stick with what you know and what has a good reputation. You get what you pay for with car audio.

i know it's made by jl, which made me optimistic, but they just seem kinda cheap/bull**** that just wants to be under the jl audio brandname so it will sell..

I've had good luck with the MTX series. They are a couple years old though. Sounded awesome in my old Camaro.


They are for sale ;)

well, i ended up finding 2 10" fosgate subs in a sealed box, with an amp, and all the wiring, for $140. put the box in my t-top well (don't have t-tops...), they hit pretty well, they aren't that apparent in rock music though...
