it's the same sub tho, so that doesn't apply here. So stop givin us so much good information in such little time :p
It does apply, especially since it's "the same sub" - since because of THAT, there are expectations that performance is going to be the same.

Take any sub that comes in 4 ohm and 8 ohm "flavors"... or dual 4 and dual 2 (same deal)...
...there's going to be differences between the 4 ohm and 8 ohm versions, you'll see that the T/S specs aren't the same between the two subs - engineering actually had to happen to make two drivers of different impedences that perform similarly! :surprised

But with this sub, since we're talking about a single long-gap/long-coil overhung driver, you've got a ton of flexibility...
Particularly if you free yourself somewhat from those expectations by declaring one version a "SPL" and one a "SQ" version. ;)

Hell, I'd take the "SQ version" and give it a coil winding that was much longer, increase Xmax, lower Fs, reduce BL, raise Qts (all in one stroke! :cool: )... so I'm guessing that's what they've done here - not that I know.

Hahaha. Him agreeing in any way that the MTX sub is good shows his obvious bias and occupation on the MTX marketing team!!! *sarcasm*

Personally i have seen the Jackahammer perform... all i can say is it is the biggest paperwight i have ever seen... I remember being at the FUNKMASTER FLEX car show and some jacked up Jeep had 2 Jackhammers in it and i was thinking wow that things gotta decimate! But yea it sucked... Looked cool, didnt do shit, i was soo dissapointed for like 1 minute untill i went over to the Kicker Audio truck and was quickly satisfied.

I've got no connections at MTX...
But if you are looking for some high-output eights, I do have a connection.. :p

Think anyone would be interested in a 15mm Xmax 10 pound 8" sub for about $70?

Could we put a pair of those against the Jackhammer? :D
