Anything RE with an "X" on the end of it.. I'd stay away from.

i run four sex 15's and they have been good to me. They are made overseas tho. korea i think. the xxx and mx/ mt are still made in the US.

My ol' lady's car has a pair of REx 12s and my little brother runs SRx 12s both have been beaten on everyday for over a year with zero problems so I really don't see anything wrong with the new X models as long as you don't TRY to destroy them. Not a bad choice for a bit o bass on a budget, but I have found that you can get a better product around here though for just about the same price. Go check out the Skar sub/enclosure deal here on SSA. IMO it's probably the best deal out right now on a 600w rms 12 if you need a box too. I would have jumped on it to replace the pair of REx 12s but I bought a new alt. and I'm broke now.

Its not like companies overseas can't make a decent product, might not be up to par with quality of American made woofers though. Major difference is when produced in China it is usually on a much larger scale and quality control isn't at it highest as to here most companies work on a much smaller scale with quality being priority.

Choice and quality of materials, tolerances, actual experience of the people testing the drivers (if they are tested) before they ship out, fit and finish, and very little design protection, these are all issues in build houses overseas. Bar-none the #1 priority in those factories is build and move as much product as humanly possible, almost everything else takes a back seat. Yes there are competent build houses over seas, but there are always issues to deal with.
