show me you're aftermarket stereo setup

I have a MB Quart Q line setup going in my X.... To make a long story short.. I sold a car to a guy who owns Maxxonics... I am getting the "hook up" and am told it will be 2200 watts of clean sound.... Is that any good?

I would like to see all the other setups and will gladly post pics of mine when I pick her up after shes finished.

Although I need to wait 3 weeks for Wicked CAS to make my 12" sub box, so I will be rocinkg the oem Rochford 10" until then...

BTW any one interested in buying my OEM Rockford Fosgate speakers, amps, sub/enclosure?

Maybe? If that's 2200 watts RMS, it should knock your fillings out real quick.. but, if it's only 2200 watts peak, I'm guessing that would equate to less than 800 watts RMS - which is still plenty for an entire system.

As for the speakers, I haven't personally heard any of the newer MB Quarts, but I've heard from several others that MB Quart went to **** after Maxxonics bought the name. Guess the guys that worked at the original MB Quart are now making speakers under the brand "German Maestro". In any case, their Q-line looks pretty nice, and I'm sure it'll sound 100x better than anything you'd find at Best Buy =)

Ya.. just checked, and the Q-line components handle 80RMS and there's probably no sub that handles over 1000RMS that would fit the Wicked CAS.. so I'm guessing he was quoting a rather misleading 2000+ watts peak figure.

What sub are you installing in the Wicked CAS?
