AA Avalance VS. MTX 8500

[ravens9322 10+ year member]

Both are 12" and will be used in a 1.75 ported enclosure (for now) and will be powered with a visonik 1400 watt amp.

Let me know what you pick, why you pick that and how much you would pay for either sub.

Thank you guys,

Chris

You have both of these subs?

no but if the AA Avalance is a better all around sub, i can get one cheap from a friend, so i will sell the 8500 and get the avalance.

Anyone else?

1400 watts rms(yes I know he can set his gain for less //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif)?? neither sub needs close to that. What kind of price you looking at on each. Mtx retail is insane.

i already have the mtx....but i can get the AA for like 150.... and the amp is a 2 channel with 1400x1 at 4 ohms and 700x2 at 2 ohms

I'd buy it if I were you... if anything ya get to play with it for awhile and sell it at a minimal loss(if ya didnt wanna keep it) . Thats just me though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif.

I wouldnt throw 140o watts to the MTX bro. I was throwing 600 at it and it took it fine, anything above 750 would probably melt your coils.

I toss 500 at my 8500,its perfect IMO

1400 is alot of headroom for a sub thats designed for 500-600

maybe you should do a dual setup

idk how many watts persay but i have run (2) 12" MTX 7500's off (2) Power Acoustik A3000DB's straped at 4ohms

and those subs only take 400RMS //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Yeah well he has a tendency to blow subs with his gain knob if you know what I mean.

we were burping some of MTX's new subs (not sure which ones, they are 250wrms) with over 1kw per sub and they were taking it just fine.
