I was thinking the same exact thing I didn't even know McIntosh was a brand and then I read a few post and saw he wanted one so I was like aight I'll check ebay...found one for 1,500 and didn't know what it did just knew I wanted it.

The McIntosh Mx406 retails for $2000, the MX4000 (Ryan's model) sold for about $2500, and the MX5000 (Flagship model) sold for around $3000. Ryan got one heck of a deal on a MX4000 for under a grand. He had under a grand, then spent it, and so now...he is poor.
Welcome to the forum Glen! We have alot of fun here learning more and more about this awesome hobby of ours......basketweaving!

How can you have a coil thats .7ohm's How would you begin to wire that to a 2ohm stable amp ...ya know crap like that

to go even further.. theres a few diagrams that show you how to wire your basic dual 2 and 4ohm coils, and single voice coils.. but someone needs to make a diagram for the quad coil and .5ohm coils or whatever and all that junk.

Like basic ones 4ohm subs going to 8 or 2 ohms and 2 ohm subs going to 4ohm and 1ohm operations I got down pat...
Now I'm overloaded with information...At least I got some resin and what not to fiberglass me a box (forgot about that in the garage)
