Powering two MTX 4510's in a ported box

I know the amplifier is really powerful, but I plan to upgrade to two 12's in a ported box. So this is a start.

Plus, Profile is in California, American made, and 3 year warranty!!…So ya.

Just a word on my view of the car audio/subs world.

Everyone and there mother usually has some sort of subs, and they always think they are all that for having them. Yeah, they have subs, but they forget one main thing. The component speakers.

You sound system is nothing without updating your component speakers, no matter how good your subs are everything will sound like ass.

Everybody usually leaves the component speakers stock thinking, oh well it will be fine. It is not, have you ever seen the normal component speakers in door panels and above the trunk? They are paper, they cannot compete with the subs. They will be overpowered by the soundwaves of the subs, and will be distorted completely to the point of not hearing anything but the tweeters. Get component speakers before upgrading your subs if you haven't already.

I do agree with Mr. Kleen and I have often seen people by New Speaker then not need the Subs afterwards because they Speakers Sounded so good on there own.

Component speakers done. Except door speakers, those I'm waiting for a deal on. But anyway, the subs can handle well, but I haven't put them to their full potential.

Good comments, and subs aren't everything. Good mention.
