- Ok, the update is that I went to a few more places and weren't
- please with the ones I deleted. Some people suggested the Polks and the
- a/d/s/. Well, the a/d/s/ are way out of my price league. The Polks were
- just a little out but they are still in the back of my mind.
-
- So far I am in a toos up between the MTX and the Altec Lansing.
- I haven't been able to see the Altec Lansing since they were out of
- stock. But they are both the same price and they both have an LC X-over
- circuit. I'm leaning towards the MTX since it has a 3 year warranty but
- I'm still not decided.
-
- A problem came up, it was weather or not the Altec Lansing would
- fit in my car. My car is an '87 Pontiac Safari Wagon. The driver's side
- might not fit due to the back of the instrument cabinet.
-
- I would assume that the Altec Lansing would sound better than
- the MTX but I would have to wait to mid-January.
-
-
- Well, this has been an update,
-
- Thanks to all that replied and reposted.
