Mach 5 Maw 15 review

[jfsh90 10+ year member]

This weekend I had two 15" Maw's installed in my 93 Buick Regal.

The box is 4cu ft sealed and the subs are ran by a Rockford t1000bd.

Now it's Tuesday, I've had them for three days.

Right now I'm on a stock alt, and power/ground wire is 4ga with a 125 amp fuse. I can not turn the volume up too loud or it will just **** the life out of my car.

All I can really say is, WOW!

These subs sound amazing, and for the price, you can't let it up if you're on a budget.

I've read many reviews on the Maws, saying that they're more sq oriented, but maaan they pound so ****ed good! My car is shaking like crazy, I could use Ramaat, but I really don't care.

Here in Cedar Rapids, there are a bunch of kids my age who think their shit is bangin, although they have best buy and walmart crap. I terrorize my school with my system.

I am also surprised at how punchy these 15's are, as I said before they sound friggen amazing!

Glad you like them. Yeah, if you can squeeze a bit more room out of your trunk, go ported - they will definitely move you... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Best,

Best,

I wish I could go ported, but that 4 cu ft sealed bux barely squeezed in. I'd rather give the subs the right amt sealed rather than not giving them enough room in a vented.

Ugh if only I had an SUV

EDIT: Forgot to add, the box is prefab and I'm not sure if anyone is close enough to Cedar Rapids, IA to build me a box inside the trunk.
