Just Right

A very nice system if you want that bass that rocks the car but not the ppl next to at a stop light. Very straight forward as far as installation i would also recommend that you get the 4g wiring kit cause the wiring that comes with it sucks. Overall a very good product for the price.

good speakers

Ihe amp and speakers hit good great if you are just starting off, I have had them for over a year, planning to upgrade, -anyways bottom line is they are worth it, does make your rearview mirror shake, have had no problems other than when it is really hot outside the amp cuts off but comes back on after bout 5 mins

Great Deal.

These subs were amazingly easy to install. They fit perfectly in my small 2000 Saturn SL1. They hit hard and are very consistent. Some of my friends have even told me that this combo compares to their 12" JL Subs... Needless to say I have been very impressed by this very economical sub combo.

Not Bad At All!

honestly... im satisfied! if you're not really worried about entering Bass competitions and you just wanna bump... then these are not a bad choice! i would just recommend that you get some good wires and RCA jacks. this combination of subs and amp are a good reliable source of bass... especially for a sedan (i have a 2003 civic EX 4dr)... and its soooooooo cheap!!!!! enjoy

These 10's hit HARD

These subs hit very hard! I own a firebird and they are perfect, they hit so hard that i cant even turn the bass up half way... sound great with any kind of music!! They sound just as good as my friends 3000 probox system in his truck... for about 1/20 of the price!! They are great for a 16 year old that is on a budget.. I highly HIGHLY recommend this package

great bang for your buck..

I got the sound i was looking, for but when i first installed it. it wasn't really hitting that hard come to find out having an factory bose system in my maxima...( yea i know bose is the sh!t) just wanted more bass. anyways come to find out it was the first dvd player i bought off here that was causing the issues. But so far i'm loving the speakers.. But i would recommend buying a bigger and better amp because this one heats up way to quick nor does it have a fan.

Very happy

I got these subs about a year ago, i upgraded the amp to a rockford p400-2 amp and it makes the difference between night and day. With the new amp giving the subs 482rms (what the amp was rated at bridged @ 4 ohms) it is powerful enough to make my car's body flex a little bit and both wing mirrors rattle as well as the rear view. However, recently the subs are starting to blow (starting to make weird sounds when it bumps). Overall these subs are amazing for the price, and this is a very good starter kit. With a more powerful amp these subs will pound, but i only got about a year out of them.

Awesome

Great sound and powerful kick. I had to tune the amp to respond to higher frequencies because i wasn't getting enough sound out of the LPF mode. Hooked it up to the factory head unit by tapping into the back wires and using a LOC. Sounds good.

Definantly Worth the Money!

I have this package currently in my room, and it thumps! I don't have a big enough power supply right now to get it past 1/4 volume but even at that this thing rattles my house. Handles bass as well as mids very good if you have the amp set for full range. The only thing is, if you're looking for high SPL this won't give you what you want. If you're looking for loud, sometimes annoying but controllable bass. This is the package for you! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this package, although IF you want more or want a bit more SPL's then spend $30 more for the MTX Terminator package.

This package comes with everything you need for the amplifier besides a wiring kit. I would say if you plan on swapping or removing the sub-woofers for re-wiring or etc. you will need a set of Allen Wrenches. I personally will not be upgrading to the MTX Terminator package or at all anytime soon. I have ran this amp for a couple hours straight seeing how it sounds with different songs, and the amp got hot but never went into protection mode yet. So this thing can withstand some heat.

Great starter subs, im the type of person, before i buy things i read all reviews. And if your looking for good starter subs for your first time, i would really get these subs, you wont be disappointed. these are great subs and hit really hard. May need to get a new amp to produce more bass. I'm currently upgrading to 2 12's. but these things hit harder than my friends 12's. GET THESE!

Pretty nice subs

Great subs, compared to my friend who spent 600 bucks on a JBL and amp, these are alright. It will shake the entire vehicle but sadly it wont shake nearby vehicles. Pretty good bass throughput. One of the best deals you can find! I highly recommend this as a first time subwoofer purchase. People say the amp is weak.. for me i dont even have the bass turned up that much and it shakes my car and hurts my ears.

Awesome subs worked well but the amp blew them out. Terminals melted and subs are now blown. Was professionally installed so was not a installation defect.

Nice

This Package is worth the money. it rattles the hell out of my rear view and side mirrors. It can hit low notes very well but of course nothing really low. At high volumes the bass still sounds tight. The only problem i have is the sub makes a popping sound when i turn my car on and off (like when you turn on computer speakers) and i think its because the front unit(deck) i have is giving too much power to turn the sub on and off, through the remote wire, causing it to do that. I have no complaints about the amp, it works well for me.
overall i am very happy i bought this. i probably have the loudest system in my school besides my friends dual 12's, but hey, theres not much difference between them! also i have my bass setting on the lowest and it still shakes my car. MTX always makes quality equipment. I'd say buy them. PS. always unhook negative battery terminal when installing!

Great for the price

These subs sound really good. They are not comparable to 2 12in JL audio subs like someone said on here but they are quality speakers. They are made by MTX a quality brand and they sound like it.
People say the amp gets hot because they have it turned up all the way, any amp would get hot.
If you want to get the full potential out of these subs get a 1000 watt amp but this set up sounds great already!!!

Bang vs Buck

For someone who doesn't need their car sound system to draw un needed attention, rattle parts into breaking, and cause splitting headaches, this is great. Just enough bump to fill out good music, and enough to shake the windows if you want it to. Have had for over six months, no issues whatsoever. Amp is an okay match for the subs, as long as you dont cheap out on the wires. Makes sure to get full copper, the aluminum coated crap isnt worth it. Would recommend to anyone who needs a recommendation, just understand you are getting what you pay for, and dont try to run this setup as if you want ghetto blasters.

Not too bad.

Subs hit hard. Get good wires, i could deff tell he difference between 10g wire and 4g wires.

The amp gets so hot it's crazy. It shut off twice on me and i only had the tuning on the amp half up. Going to upgrade to a better amp very soon.

Other then that, you can't beat the preice

Great for the price range

These subs hit HARD. In a chevy cobalt coupe, everything moves when the bass hits. Only concern is with the amp, fried within 8 hours when received. Returned and waiting on the new one to be delivered. May be an isolated incident, but could also be bad workmanship on the part of MTX. Keep a spare amp on hand if you can just in case. Other than that, premium sound at a fraction of the price. Won't win competitions, but will definitely put a smile on your face when the music is playing.

Get rid of the box, or stuff it.

This is an entry level kit at best. The subs are the low end that MTX makes, the box does not have enough cubic footage to allow the low end subs to perform at their best. the amp is very low power. 800watts seems like a dream for this amp as the best that is can do is 400 and that seems to be peek.

So lets go to the sound. After tuning the amp for about 1.5 hours with my iasca test cd, and getting rid of all distortion, the subs are able to produce 50hz 40 and 35hz, but below that seems to be the subs downfall. They just cant seem to hit those lows. But that is what you get for the low end subs. The sound from the stock magnum box has a little punch to it, but the deep lows that we all like can not be heard/felt. and the feeling is... well....... flat, no depth to the bass at all.

On a hunch that the Box is the culprit I took 1 of the magnum subs out, and put it in to a atrend b-box sub box. I then used the amp included with the magnum kit and hook that up. this is a night and day difference. the sub actually can hit at this point, and the response is better. I was able to get 25hz out of them. The feeling is totally different. Not high end sound, but good enough that some heads may turn for the amount of bass that is put out.

Since I now know that the box is the issue with these subs(Not the only issue but the main issue) I went ahead and added poly fil to the box in hopes that I can trick the sub in to thinking it is in a bigger box. After going to my local dollar store and buying a poly fiber pillow I proceeded to open said pillow up and extract the poly fiber. I then took my adhesive spray and added poly fiber to each box (To be honest there is MAYBE 1/2 a cubic foot of volume in the sub compartment, no where near enough room.) After adding poly fil to each sub box. I then when to testing again.

Results show a lot of improvement. I had a cut off at about 25 to 27hz and we got that nice throaty feeling in the bass. The bass no longer feels flat, and is filling the cab of the jeep just fine now. I did have to re-tune the amp but the poly fill made it all worth it. The subs now at least sound decent.

In the end if you are going to get this kit, either get bigger boxes. or some poly fill. The amp is mediocre, the subs are low end, the box is way too small. As far as looks, the subs look cheep, but the box looks very nice. The amp is also very nice looking but the included instructions of turning the gain all the way up will do nothing but cause damage. If you do buy this kit, you can install it yourself, but I would highly suggest to have a pro tune the amp after you have either poly filled the box, or got some decent boxes for the subs. After you get this going save your money and upgrade the amp, as this amp would be better for mids and highs. and then upgrade the subs.

Sounds big, cost little

As others have mentioned, use different wire to hook it up. If you're going to mount the amp to the sub's box, use spacers to allow air to get under the amp to help cool it a little. Pounds well with no "whoosh" like round ported sub boxes. Can't beat the price, happy.

Good for the price, would suggest something better but great for starters

These things are not as responsive as i hoped, but still a good deal for the price. I've had these for about two months and haven't experienced any problems yet so far. The amp does tend to get pretty hot but besides that it's been pretty faithful.

I'm getting some better subs to replace the current ones fairly soon because when I bought these I was expecting better sound quality. It seems to have a loose sound, not that tight bass that rattles your heart that I was hoping for. It looks pretty nice, the amp lights up and sets the mood in my trunk and the enclosure has a tight looking embroidery on the top.

It didn't have instructions but installation was pretty straightforward. If you want good quality you need to crank down the knobs on the amp which lowers volume but helps add that extra bump to your music. Not really recommended if your wanting something to rock the block.

here the value is great, especially for starters. If your looking for a decent setup, you can expect to pay more than 170.

Pretty weak, but looks cool and low cost

Good looking setup, but performance (no performance rating, so I rated features as performance) is pretty poor. This subwoofer and amp are pretty low end in terms of sound quality at higher volume levels. The bass sound is "loose", not "tight", especially as you push the volume higher. I prefer a tight, powerful hitting bass that thumps your chest, but this setup just flattens out and distorts as you push it.

For the price, it's good for a starter system.

Great Subwoofers at an Awesome Price!

Pros: Great Price
Good amount of bass
Easy install
Not too powerful, but still strong enough to shake the mirrors
Speaker Level Inputs
Included high level input harness

Cons: Amp could be more powerful
May get warm (its hard to avoid, the extra 1/2" underneath the amp really helps airflow)

Best value for sick sub

This sub pounds! I have a volvo s70 and have it in my truck facing the cabin, i keep the rear seats down and it hits hard! Its awesome too because when you are inside the cabin you feel tremendous bass in your chest and it is wicked loud, but when you walk out of the car it isn't too loud, you can hear it but it wont piss anyone off. This is the best value for subs if you are looking to add some bass on a budget (like i was). My friend has pioneer 12's at much higher rms than this and yet my magnums sound better. go figure. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
