Buddy needs suggestions for new system

Post by audiobass10 »

A buddy of mine wants to get a system put in his 1997 honda accord. He is looking for SQ but also wants some decent bass. He's been leaning twoard mtx 10's and he's not sure which model to get. I think he should probably go with the 6000's and a nice mtx amp to run them off of. He doesn't wanna spend a fortune however, so any suggestions on what to fit his needs for subs, and amp, and enclosure would be appreciated.

If he's gonna go MTX, don't go 6000's. At the absolute least get 8000's. You can get them for like $40 each on ebay.

He's not looking to spend much. I think the 8000's would be a good suit for him but any opinions would be helpful.

If he's looking for inexpensive SQ then I would suggest one 12" Alpine Type-r over two 10" MTX 8000s.
