I just sold mine. I loved it. It got loud and it sounded **** clean. I wasnt expecting it to be as clean as I thought, but I liked it. It got low and took on around 600 watts rms. Definatly a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge improvement from MTX in the past. Throw it in a ported box and it will scream, throw it in a sledgehammer, you will enjoy even more. It looks great too. I had my sub inverted and I got alot of compliments. Good price too. How are you picking one up for that cheap? I have never seen one for that price. Even on Ebay. But then again, I had the SVC 4 ohm model which was alot more rare.

If I would have found one for that price, I would have never gotton rid of my MTX 8512. I always wanted to add another, but they were so high priced, especialy for the SVC 4 ohm like mine was.

My bro has 2 7500s in a sledgehammer. They sound pretty dam good. He paid $300 for both subs in box with 3 yr warranty, well worth it. I would never pay the $600 retail sticker they had on it though.
