That CMTtrading link worked for me, BUT!

If there's anything that I've learned in car stereo, you get what you pay for. Name brands usually DO mean quality products, as compared as to those warehouse places that carry those brands that you may never have heard from.

Check the THD (total harmonic distortion) and the RMS power (Root mean squared). If the THD is very low (usually <.1, but depends on what you're using it for) and the RMS is close to the peak output, you're usually getting a decent amplifier.

That CMT site looks like a bunch of trash to me.

hey, thanks for the compliment.

don't be too fast to judge the cmttrading site though. i really do agree with the "you get what you pay for" rule, but check out the kicker comp vr's on cmt. they're nice subs, and 154 is a good price for two of 'em. but the "10 pair tweeter domes for 23.50" on the site... haha that's another story...

anyways, if anyone's looking for subs, i really recommend adire audio (http://www.adireaudio.com/). i'd never even heard of their subs until i joined www.caraudioforum.com, and everyone there loves them.
