You can't be serious

Have you ever strayed away from the Orient and tried US made products, Rainbow, Hybrid, etc.

–noun 1. the sign (,), a mark of punctuation used for indicating a division in a sentence, as in setting off a word, phrase, or clause, esp. when such a division is accompanied by a slight pause or is to be noted in order to give order to the sequential elements of the sentence. It is also used to separate items in a list, to mark off thousands in numerals, to separate types or levels of information in bibliographic and other data, and, in Europe, as a decimal point.


-colon- Use a colon [ : ] before a list or an explanation that is preceded by a clause that can stand by itself.


I clearly used a comma in the first one to seperate items.

I clearly used a colon in the second one to make a list.

To the average audio guy such as yourself, who has obviously never been involved with high end equiptment to compare oriental stuff to, sure those brands sound good to the average joe that has never heard quality. Your argument is invalid seeing as how you've never dealt with anything besides mainstream stuff.

Most of the Big 3 vehicles are made in Canada and Mexico.
lol is this a joke? i have dealt with many non mainstream brands before some quality some not, but everytime you talk about a product you compare it to MMATS, its starting to make me wonder if you know of any other non mainstream brand

Have you read any of my posts in other sections? Anyways I recommended MMATS amps for the great money to build quality, sq, and power ratio. Not many people can afford say Sinfoni, Genesis, Tru, etc. Also many people won't search ebay everyday for older quality amps so there's not really a point in suggesting those, but I do sometimes. Most people want new components. This guy is on a low budget as many are so I recommended the MMATS.

From your sig:

SI/SO flowmaster super 40
2 12" kicker cvr's
1 800 watt rms monoblock amp(blown)
new amp- hifonics bxi1206d
6.5" infinity reference up front
6x8" pioneer 3 ways back

Honestly why are you still arguing? You have absolutely no room to talk. You're running kicker cvr's, a hifonics bxi amp, infinity and pioneer door speakers and you have a flowmaster.

dont get me wrong because MMATS is a good brand and i understand that, but why did you go against RF and alpines amps earlier? they still make very decent amps, not as good as their old school amps no, but no company that we discussed has made stuff as good as they used too. once again install is everything, you can spend a thousand dollars on a sub and put it in the wrong box and a sony xplod could out do it in the proper box

From another post I made:

I purchased a special edition remake of the Punch 150 because it was supposed to be an exact replica with newer technology. They were also built as the line above the power series so I thought maybe the old fosgate was back, but I was sadly mistaken. That amp was the sorriest $800 amplifier I've ever seen. It was ridiculous. The birthsheet said somewhere around 800rms at 4 ohms IIRC. Total bs. My Focal 75.2 that I was trying out blew the fosgate away and it is by no means a powerful amp; 200 rms at 4 ohm which isn't a true 200rms more like 120, but you get the point.

This is just one example. I figured I'd use it because the special editions were supposedly the best RF amps at the time when they came out a few years ago.

The companies I've recommended make great products now.

Hmm. Funny the SR's are a very nice set. Ever really REALLY got to play around with them?

Ever attended a spelling class? Its spelled grammar.

No, it doesnt. It more depends on the box and the drivers suspension.

Yeah there's a list of them so I just put etc. lol. McIntosh is slowly going cheaper with the products they're using inside the amps.

Not at all man. I just know the difference between quality and what isn't, yet people who have never heard quality setup right argue and say mainstream is awesome which is not the case.

Well Crutchfield just sells mainstream. If I had to choose it would be the JLW7's.

Ever heard of a comma dude? It seperates things, not lists them. Go back and re-read my post and you'll realize I wasn't listing Rainbow as US made...that is if you know proper grammer.

To be honest I've never had the chance to test any out so I can't answer that question.
Your correct. They do not normally sound very good. But the funny part is they are one of the largest and fastest growing companies soundwise in the US. Must be doing something right....

PM me for more info if you want. You should be able to find one at a decent price so you'll have money left over for the rest.
Are you really serious? Cant find anything? Have you asked him what his goals are? Maybe what he wants out of the system, instead of inflicting what you have learned by lurking... How bout brand preference?
