I know their RFL gets loud..but their advertisements for it crack me up.

Also,if anyone knows why the surround is inverted on this sub,please tell why,I am curious to know.

Theyr amplifiers i like.

 

[marleyskater420 5,000+ posts]

ok....still no answer..

 

[loserpunk 10+ year member]

i've always wondered the same thing

they use a kinda funky surround on their 6000's and 8000's too

overall i've liked their subs..if you can get them for a decent price..i've yet to hear the 9500's but i've heard 4000's 6000's and 8000's....they performed for what i wanted them for when i had them

I have heard that the reason that the surrounds are inverted is because with them like that they are able to move a good deal more easily. That is however what I HEARD.

About the MTX thing.....I have to say that I really like them. I personally wouldn't get to worked up over the lower lines of equipment but the higher end is very good.

Go with JL...i have no basis for this other than the fact that Im happy with mine and I haven't heard a single compaint about the W7

 

[80_Cutlass_mn 10+ year member]

Yea but for the price of one w7 then you could prolly get 2 thunder 8000's, dont get me wrong the w7's are good, but you really pay for them.

Would the inverted surround cause the sub to have more displacment? It would be like having a larger cone. As the surround moved up it would push air out. Just a thought

i dont know why the surrounds on the RFL are inverted, but think about this.

with the surround inverted it is not going to allow any more travel than a regular surround, after all, it is the same surround but just backwards.

using that same logic the surround isnt going to displace any extra air, once again, same surround but reversed.

the only thing i can think of is that maybe the inverted surround would resist surround deformation (inverting) during high excursion. im not sure though, thats just my guess.

as for other MTX products... they make good amps.

 

[minx501 10+ year member]

They make decent subs, and you can find them fairly cheap. The 8000series are nice especially for the money. They also have decent amps, I think they over rate their power tho.

 

[denim 5,000+ posts]

the RFL is an extreme SPL woofer only not for daily at all

 

[AScreenName 10+ year member]

i used to have 4 6000 10's

they were ok

they would've been ALOT louder if i would've used mdf and not particle board and if i ported them

i kept two and sold two and built a ported box for two and ran it by a pos 1000 watt sony amp and they banged pretty decent for 2 10's

Same here.

Always been a fan, I don't know why - just like their equipment //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Mtx is defitnitely top notch in the car audio world, one of my favorites. They probably inverted the surround so people would ask questions, I don't think it would matter if it was in or out.

 

[Incriminator 10+ year member]

The RFL uses a regular surround just inverted.........Plain and simple.....they did it to be different //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I like the amps and the RFL...thats it.

 

[loserpunk 10+ year member]

yea i like their amps(as far as i know they aren't that overrated if at all correct me if i'm wrong), i like the 8000's for the price, the old blue thunders, 9500 without all that hype, and the rfl //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/sick.gif.b1847c8dabbfeeddbcf1a78052249e10.gif
