Anybody had experience with the brand "Magnum"?

EDIT: Looking to buy a Magnum sub & amp combo here pretty soon for cheap. I've never heard of this brand, but know nothing of them. Good? Bad? Decent?

Anybody had anything from Magnum before?


EDIT: Originally had this post on a different brand (DUAL) and defiantly changed my mind after reading a few reviews...compnut21's response is a response to the brand "DUAL"

It's not the worst, but if your budget is 1.99 or less, than it's the best bang for your buck

Yeah I'm gonna be honest here, I normally buy name brand becuase I hate buyin g ****ty products, but best buy just had a killer deal for a DUAL deck with 7" motorized touch screen LCD on friday. I think I'll just go with my original plan and get a lillput screen and the works. You get what you pay for right?


The Magnum was a subwoofer + amp combo though thats still pretty damn cheap, and honestly and as long as it beats just ever so softly, I think its gonna be worth it....Somebody with a bad story change my mind before I go out and spend 100 bucks on this thing.

if it is sold at bestbuy or circuit city is general rule is just STAY AWAY. also if you've never heard of a brand before it's either ****, or amazing high end stuff that your getting ripped off for.

Torgus, i worked at Circuit City for 2 years, until recently. Circuit carries Eclipse/Polk/Pioneer/MTX/Kicker.... i'm sorry, but i'm sure people often use those brands right there...

And Venom, don't go with Magnum, not worth your time nor effort. How about i sell you an amp and sub without the box for $150shipped and it'll be more worth your time. Only thing though is both are used. It's an MTX Thunder6000 12" and a Kicker KX200.2 amp to power it.
