Component Speakers

[Trancer 10+ year member]

Im looking for a good setup on some Component Speakers. I am on a slight budget. I am putting in 2 10" MTX Thuder 8000 with 400 watts to each. Im going for some sound quality. I was also thinking about going with MTX's Componet Thunder 8000 line. I have a 1994 regular cab S-10. The dash speakers are 4x6's and the doors are... I think 5 1/2's. Is the MTX line good? What about any others? Thanks

I have the 6.5" Thunder 8000's and they sound really nice. Look at Infinity, MB Quart, Boston Acoustics, Crystal, Diamond, Focal, etc.

Yeah I figured MTX would be a rather good brand to go with. Do you think they are worth the buck?

Yep. I like the other brands I listed above as well...the Boston's, MB's, Focal's, Crystal's are better then the MTX's if you are willing to spend a little but more. Some people dont think MTX cant make speakers, but I think they sound pretty good.

I wouldn't have gone with the 8000 for pure sound quality but they are really good as long as the box is the proper size and stays sealed. MTX is a brand all about SPL. Boston Acoustic and MB make about the best soft souding speakers. I love my infinity Kappa Perfects because they sound like the sembles are in my ears but they're pretty harsh for most. The Momo's sound great my friend has two sets in his Benz truck doors with 4 12inch MTX 8000's the only people who dare sit in it is those who don't love there ears he has about 75w going to the components and nearly 700 to the 12's

I would have to throw in a vote for the Kickers and Rockford Fanatic Q's, but it is all up to how much you want to spend
