Monkton Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I've always seen MA as a decent audio company, but never seen anything of there's perform. I'm looking for a new amp and I found this one at sonicelectronix for $100. It says it pushes 800w at 2 ohms RMS. I kind of doubt that but what do you guys know about these amps?

jeremy Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I've always thought that it was a garbage car audio company Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkton Posted November 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Well when I think shitty car audio I'm thinking of Sony and stuff in that range, and for some reason I've thought of MA better than that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19Cutlass94 Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I would buy Sony before that. Dude, just shove out the money and get a good amp and be done with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkton Posted November 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 lol Okay okay, I just wanted to know what you guys thought. I'm going with a Hifonics amp, and I don't care what you say about Hifonics, I think they are great from what I've seen in my friends car.

19Cutlass94 Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Heres your amp. MANY others here will agree that this is a great amp http://www.cardomain.com/item/JBLGTO6011II On a side note, I REALLY wish I would have kept my JBL.... I miss it.

Puggsley456 Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 I would steer clear of MA audio......I've been there....and didnt like it AT ALL! Hifonics definetally has some good products for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee I could list 50 companies you've never heard of before that are much much better than anything you know. Anyways, Massive Audio is pretty good stuff.

Monkton Posted November 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 I bet you could to. I wasn't telling him to steer clear because I hadn't heard of them, just because it seems kind of weird to me that the insurance company would try and give him new stuff instead of just reimbercing (spelling...) him for what he lost.

GnatGoSplat Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 I put a set of MA Audio component speakers in my truck. They're very unusual speakers - very thick cone material, huge magnets, really heavy, gold binding posts, and all chrome plated. They sound pretty good to me and seem to be much better quality than regular consumer brands. At the time, one of our regular members that went by "musthavemuzk" (I think his real name was Monty) said MA Audio wasn't too bad, and he was really hard-core into car audio. Too bad he's not around anymore. He used to even donate regularly and like many regulars, one day he just disappeared, never to be seen again. I don't know if their amps are that great, or if they've gone downhill lately, but I don't think it'd be as bad as Pyramid or Legacy!

sl3196 Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Sony better then ma audio? Ya fucking right lol. I love my Ma Audio amp. Been working great for 5+ years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 I dont think MA Audio is that bad. Granted their not top quality but i put some of their speakers in my sisters car years ago and she never did blow those ones up, which is amazing.

dcjredline Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Slick and a couple others are prolly the only ones going to remember this BUT. MA audio stands for MOBILE AUTHORITY!! They used to sell them at the traveling sales like super sales with tools and shirts LOL!!! Mobile Authority WAS GARBAGE, Since they have been MA they have been making much better products. I wouldnt put them up with JBL, MTX, RF, PPI, or those but they do make an OK product for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 I remember Mobile Authority. Many years ago, I repaired a broken Mobile Authority amp owned by my brother-in-law. It was a big piece of crap, like Legacy, Pyramid, and Profile. Wow, I never made the connection to MA Audio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
