Got a new sub

met up with a guy and picked up a Resonant Engineering MT18 in a 6cube box for 375, heck of a deal, but sat in his car and trust me im used to loud but this scared the carp out of me, i could barely sit in it, it was just playing music also


size by coke can

look at the size of the paper towels

look at the same magnet on a 10 then look at the 18, a little difference

im going to be putting 2 mpower acoustik a3000s on it and set them for about 1400-1500 apiece so about 3000rms for daily, should be goood...

bamaboy, do you like the Power Acoustik amps? They seem really cheap for the power they advertise.

the are very solid amps but take a couple hundred off probably like 2000rms @ 1ohm would be a good bet i got mine off cardomain.com for 290 and free shipping
they also have no internal fuses so you have to put a 150a fuse right before the amp but it is very solid

im going to run 1400-1500rms from each amp so around 3000rms, should be crazy,
you cant imagine how much louder this sub is than everything ive heard


and they arnt the best sounding subs but get the job done, but im used to my XXX whihc is one of the better sounding subs out today and i can handle the way the MT sounds, if you like the way and L7 or L5 sounds you would like the MT
