I think i got ripped off....

[PENGUIN]

I traded my fifteens cvrs in a sealed box and a 400 rms amp for a 800 rms kicker amp and two tens mtx5500 series? It bumps louder but idk....

[RUGER 2.2L]

Well what were you looking for out of your subs?

Kicker makes great amps I have a 500 watt and it pounds pretty good. 10 in subwoofers produce quick, tighter bass so if you listen to a lot of rock or alternative those will be pretty good. If you are looking for rattle your brains out bass and listen to rap you probably should have kept the 15's. The only way you got ripped off is if you didn't know what you were getting.

I dont want crazy bass... but it was dark, i thought i was getting 7500 series subs.... now that i saw them in my lighted garage im like hmmm dammm, but idk i kina like i got twice more trunk space... but man i kinda miss my 15s

[RUGER 2.2L]

I just did a little google-ing because I am not too familiar with those exact subs. There are tons of reviews for the 5500 series saying they are pretty good. The 7500 is newer and has a higher wattage rating (400 compared to 300) but I don't think you would find that much of a difference. Every sub is different and it all depends on how you set it up. My buddy has 10's and I have 12's (not a super good comparison because it is rockford 10 vs. kenwood 12 but it works). Mine are louder but his sound a lot cleaner. If I had to choose again I would probably go with 10's. Sorry if this is dragging on a bit here but overall I think you will be pretty happy with these. Plus kicker amps kick ass!

If it's louder, its better lol jk.
What does the difference sound like to you?

should of just stuck with your subs mang...but as long as it sounds good with the type of music you listen to then thats all that matters....bigger isn't always better

I agree, bigger isn't always better. It's all about sound quality.

Finally, a new member that isn't straight up whoring. lol.

haha thx mang...yeah im really into accords and miss my old cb7 and cant wait to get another all the other new members posting b/s shit gets pretty annoying but i like to just discuss things and help ppl out

[RUGER 2.2L]

Well this is a little interesting. I may be mistaken here and just reading things wrong but I am assuming that b16hatchie and cb7sleeper were referring to me as the new member whoring. I made a quick post saying that I was only trying to help but it was deleted and I am assuming that was just considered post whoring as well. So far I have made no posts at all in an attempt to quickly get to 30 posts. While I would like to get there eventually I am in no hurry. I know this post is completely unrelated to the thread but I just felt like this was a little rude seeing as how I took a good 20 minutes last night researching those MTX subs only for people to say it is BS. I am in no way an expert on car audio but I was only trying to offer my opinion.

Edit:

Looking back I can see how two posts in 15 minutes may seem like a bit much. I could have just gone back and edited the first post. I apologize for getting a little pissed. I just felt it was a little unnecessary to say I was post whoring when I was just trying to help a fellow cb owner out. I am new here and I am just here to learn and have fun. I look forward to many more constructive discussions with everyone. Have a good night or morning what ever your time zone may be.

Well after a few days of drivin all i can say is mtx ftw!!! sound quality is so much better, not to mention i got my trunk back! My cb does not look lower in the back, and it handles better! kicker amp are pretty good!!

[RUGER 2.2L]

Good to hear man. If i ever get around to it I think I might switch to 10's myself. 12's can be a bit much if you like to bump it in your DD. I hope you were able to make some use out of my earlier posts. Enjoy the MTX's!

No, no, no Ruger. I was not referring to you at all. I have been around for a while and have seen a lot of new members come and go. I was referring to most of the newer members that I have seen in the past. I was not directly referring to you my friend. You are doing a great job.

I appreciate it man. I have been surfing this site for probably a year now just looking up answers and getting ideas. I just now got around to joining. Sorry for over analyzing things a bit. I just saw you guys were talking about new members post whoring right after I posted and I only had like 5 posts so i just put 2 and 2 together. I have seen your MR thread a while before this though, pretty sweet set of wheels you got there keep up the good work!

Oh and MTX 10's FTW!
