memphis power reference?

Yea, it stands for memphis power reference. I'm quite sure. Nice entry level sub.

I have the M-Class.

Yes its the PR series, very good lil subs, best bang for the buck in my eyes, they are rated at 250wrms each, but take 500rms all day with out thinking twice, work great in smaller boxes, ported or sealed, and get down pretty low also

Well i have 2 xplods in my truck now (yeah i know..) with a bb1250.1 amp I'm just wondering if these subs would be enough of an upgrade to look into?

I have 2 13.5w7's powered by 2x1000/1 amps in my car currently, but trying to get a good little bang out of my truck with out spending a crap load on it.

As odd as that sounds, yes. The xplod's we're something I had laying around that I got off a friend when he lost his licenses. So they found a spot in my s-10 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

My truck isn’t my everyday driver, but I’ve been driving it more than usual, going slightly insane with out a loud system.

The PR's have been a great sub for me been giving mine a 1000d on each pair for a few years now still with no problem.I would go with them over the sony.

That's what I was thinking, I mean I'm pretty sure the Sony's are just Wal-Mart cheap-o's.

I've tryed my pr's sealed and ported in small boxes the sealed was 2Db lower but still did pretty good

Well, I'm sitting with sealed right now, until I come up with a design for ported to fit decently in the back of an ext. cab S-10 & still give a decent amount of leg room for the front seats x_0.

Now, one other question, how would you say a Planet Audio bb1250.1 will be SQ/SPL wise on these subs?

IMO the 1250.1 is a great amp...I have 2

I use to know someone local to me who had 2 BB2400.1 on 6 MtX subs, It hit really hard, he just didn't get the hint that metal vibrating was rather annoying //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

It's one thing when you don't have the money for it, but this kid... just, sucked at life so to speak? I mean his subs sounded great but it was to a point you could hear the car shake over them at times.
