Apparently MTX can make better speakers than Focal and MB Quart :p I'd like to see what kind of lemmings fall for that marketing chutzpah.

What the hell is wrong with MTX. I hate them. Their marketing, directly attacking brands BETTER then them, is ridiculous. Any company that uses LOL in a report like that is retarded. I love the power handling thing. Yours has a higher RMS rating. That isn't good, MTX. That means it takes MORE POWER TO GET FULL OUTPUT. Where the Focal andMB need much less for FULL OUTPUT.

Oh...it also has a mounting depth of 2.2 inches instead of 2.4

Who gives a :help:

I hate when companies directly attack other brands, just as Justin stated. It shows no maturity.

MTX= :words
Focal and MBQuart= :happy055:

"Teteron is the preferred choice of true audiophiles"
"Glass Fiber provides unmatched musical accuracy and extended low frequency response"

I laughed at those.

LOL thats funny because.... MTX is NOT the choice of true audiophiles. :P


I used to like MTX, even though i never really had any of their products. but now i honestly don't like them for all the brand bashing.

its funny how many out right lies are in that ad. just a quick few, Focal doesnt have an addon kit because it sells the 3 way as an optional package, focal tweeters come with a cover that can easily be removed per install.
MTX is my new hero

You know, I'm sure the product isn't that bad. In fact, they may sound very good. It's just a shame they oursource their marketing department to Indonessian children. If they would have just marketed that product a differnt way, this whole thread could be praising MTX rather than bashing them. But ... they get what they deserve.
