SPL-brand subs is a low-end line from Power Acoustik - which is a low-end line to begin with. The box they come in probably sounds better than they do, unless all you want is loud noise.

If those subs are as bad as the FUBR-12 subs power acoustik makes then dont even bother wasting time or money.

I hooked up a couple of FUBR-12's for a freind and the woofers or overrated on power handling by 500-600 watt's

Needless to say the woofers didnt even last a week before the caught on fire. As for the sound muddy and no very tight!!

If you already own it and cannot afford anything better for a while. I'am sure it would be better then nothing. Personally I enjoy putting a cheap woofer in a good box, and pounding the sh*t out of it until it blows.

I have never heard a SPL sub. But a couple freinds of mine have SPL amps, they are extremly unimpressive.

I was recently trying to make 3 sony P-5 X-Plodes "Explode" in my truck just for fun with a 1000 soundstream. What I found though was that those crappy red pantagons I got for barely nothing actually "Pounded". I pushed them and pushed them for 6 months and they just wanted more. The current owner loves them and pounds them everyday. Not the greatest for SQ but definitely a Sh*t-load of SPL. For $25 a sub new I would recommend them to any "beginner" who needs a lot of bang for their buck.

The last subs I was able to destroy were the 8000 series MTX's. They hit hard and clean but eventually fell apart from day to day poundin' abuse.

If anyone wants 2 brand new 10" MTX 8000 T8104A subs (the polished aluminum face), PM me. They are warranty replacements and will be here today.

boom, boom, boom boom....
