Guy on craigslist has two MTX blue thunder 12 inch subs for sale for like 45 bucks. Would these be better than my D3's in terms of SQL. I will be putting them in a sealed box.

Nobody heard of these?

What series? how old?

Had 3 10" Blue Thunders in a sealed box for my first set up and it was decent. I doubt it would be better than what you have though. They are pretty much budget subs.

I wouldn't call those an upgrade at all. They definitely are not an SQ driver at all and sound pretty terrible in about any enclosure. I have owned these in the past and still play around with one in my garage.

If you are really looking for an upgrade from the D3s, either port them, or you will have to spend a good amount more money.

No such thing as sql.

Agreed. But Blue Thunder's are a lot better than the Road Thunder/4500's that have replaced them. The Blue's weren't that bad.

and they really move too,lol...had them in my Suburban. You could tell that they were beating like crazy when sitting in the back but didnt have the potential to move alot of air. Now if they were in the trunk/hatch of a honda or something like that,would have been another story. But definitely some nice *** subs!!
