Sorry, didn't mean anything by that. lol. We just farm a lot of stuff out that way due to cheap labor and all. lol.

Hey joeyc ... that quote in your signature ... I used to have that at the bottom of all my government e-mails. I switched it up for a seperation of church and state quote by James Madison, “The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe with blood for centuries.”

The chaplains love me. lol

"When politics and religion ride in the same cart, the whirlwind is sure to follow."

or another version of the same quote:

"When politics and religion travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. The movement becomes headlong -- faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thought of obstacles and forget that a precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it's too late."

by the way, if you've been in California all of your life, you're not Indonesian, you're American.

I have been reading this crap..and their use of picking out the lowest line of the Poly K is funny to me. First off the top line PolyGlass has better specs than what they are offering. Also it has that ever needed phase plug. Teteron i have never heard of, but I must admit...it is what I crave most (insert sarcasm here). The 130KF which these are, retail for $399.00 every day and twice on sunday.

MTX, it is great you compare these three brands and YOU decide what whoops everyone's ass....but try this in a truly non-biased arena of mobile sound enthusiasts, and you may find that the "phase plug" is more like a butt-plug.

I think I saw BigFoot today..(insert more sarcasm) and I am sure that I was abducted by aliens.

I still can't believe they used "LOL". How unprofessional is that? That whole right hand column is basically sardonically malicious comments, I see why you guys are pissed off.

Because then they couldn't show how their BEST LINE is as good as Focal's WORST LINE.

I must agree that not only is this advertising simply unproffesional and (though I'm no lawyer) could possibly leave them open for a lawsuit which is a very bad business decision. I think it's sad that they are trying to aim for a market that's way out of their league. I have heard those components and they have a nice sound and look nice and would be great for your average joe who won't buy anything like focal just because he's never heard of them. I run two MTX subs (soon to be switched out) and have been very happy with them they are good strong subs so I think they would have been better to compare themselves to more mainstream companies and offer facts that could be better backed up in court if need be. as always I could be wrong but that's how I see the situation.

I like the comment on the "plastic LOL" for the basket. Plastic is a very generalized term. How to they know its not glass filled nylon or some other composite? They dont, just full of BS...

Larger VC Diameter = more mass for the speaker to move making it harder to control.

"220C Aluminum VC Wire" Hot damn thats very specific, so specific its like me comparing my gas powered car to a hydrogen, electric and diesel and proclaiming mine is better because its faster or lighter :rolleyes

More throw = less control, bottom line. Thats why high XMAX mids havent taken off...
