Memphis M3

[ryanbssc29 10+ year member]

Im thinking of buying 2 2005 12' dual 4ohm Memphis M3 subwoofers. Has any one heard, or heard about the 2005 model? Good/Bad?

What subwoofers are comparable in spl to the Memphis M3

12', 400-600 watt power, same basic price range as M3?

m3's hit real hard. I know somebody that had 2 m3's on a mojo amp, and they were taking all of it. Definately a good sub. I have a mojo 12" sub, but I was thinking of doing 4 m3's. You can't go wrong.

M3 is excellent, even has decent sq for an spl oriented sub

Would 2 12' dual 4ohm Memphis M3's wit a Memphis 1000d amp be a good set up?

I would think so, my friend runs 800w to his M3 and its still alive lol

so i would venture to say they would sound great with 500

I believe ur a bit mixed the M3 is a SQL sub the M3 Mojo is the SPL sub. Now the M3's replaced the old HPO's which were great sub's I owned 2 12's great stuff. Now the new M3 Mojo's are very loud and still have good SQ.

I think the M3s are great for daily but are more for the average joe "i wanna be loud", but who still knows how its supposed to sound. Its kind of a 65/35 ratio of SPL:SQ IMO and are sort of advertised as such. They are designed for easy dissassembling and quick fixing for comps and stuff. Kind of invites you to throw lots of power at it and get loud //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

to be quite honest, i recently went to a show and the guy had TWO memphis MOJO's - two deep cycle batts, 2awg wire, in a durango with a pair of M3's in 3~4 cubes at 37hz and only scored a 145 on the AC.

i didnt read the thread, but just wanted to let you know.

I've also see na single M3 Mojo 12 do 150.9 not sure which mic exactly.I'll have to find the link to it.

Memphis is all SPL,and they do a good job at that niche

I wouldent even consider them an SQ sub
