I've been disappointed with the Stuff when the shop I worked at had them. That was 4 years ago though. Their stuff might have improved. For the same money, Memphis is better. Earthquake is better. Hell. Their are alot better choices out there.

The problem we had is they could not handle power worth a Damn. Rated at 1000 watts. Put 500 through them and they would blow.

I would seriously consider another brand if MA has not changed it's problems. To me they are alot like AudioBlauuu. Over Priced, under-performing, Chromed crap.

I have MA AUDIO 6.5 component sets (6.5" mid and 1" tweeter) in the front and back, I got them at a good price almost 2 years ago...they've held up pretty good. I'm not too into audio...just got a PANASONIC touch screen and the MA components on the stock MONSOON wiring with amps. I'm sure their are better out there, but then again everyone's wallets and opinions are different too.

MA Audio stuff is good stuff. I have my whole system setup with MA Audio. I have been a professional mobile audio & video specialist for the past 4 years now.

I love my ma amp it was cheap and is loud as hell. But i would not pay full price for most their stuff. I like most their stuff but but it of ebay retail is crazy on their stuff.

i haven't been impressed by them. subs....suck. when a manufacturer has such a poor design that the coil has a meeting with the back plate before the suspension stops it, it is JUNK! i've spanked their high end stuff in comps, i've installed other equip in peoples vehicles who previously had ma. they say they'd never run ma again, what i installed killed it apples to apples. they might have some alright stuff, but i'd never touch it. if you're finding it cheap, it's probably their entry level stuff and you're going to get what you pay for. that's my opinion anyway.

and you can get dls and others seperately for the mid woofer. also the crystal ssw 5 1/4",.....nastly little guy.
