Are SPL subs good? I have a 5000 watt amp, and i need some speakers that can handle this amp. I found these subs, they are the SPLW15, and they handle 2800 watts max. two of those ought to be enough to manage that amp. I just dont know if they are and good or not, the place I found them is https://www.cardiscountstereos.com/Catalog%20Page.asp?Product+%23=SPLW15 and they are $189.99 a piece. I want to have a good system but i dotn have tons of money, i just came accross theses and wanted afew opinions. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx.

this is his bro and i got the same amp. Its a custom made planet audio amp. There are only six in the world like them cuz they were special made. They put out 5000 watts RMS times 1 @1 ohm. and 2500 watts into 2 channels. The guy we bought them from did spl comps and he had all them special made. so we have two of them they retail for 3500 bucks and we got them for 300 a piece they power up and all so i think we got a gooooood deal lol. WEll i hope this helped u out some.

I'm sorry but https://www.cardiscountstereos.com sells all cheap stuff. I saw very few respactable brands there. You would be better off buying trusted name brands on close out, open box, recertified, etc than buying cheap stuff.
