Little bit more rms action then my soloX, mtx has made some good woofers in the past. Looks like a monster for sure. It'l need tons of amp to run it.$$$$

i bet youd be better off with some 13w7's id rather have them. something so big and heavy definately cant hit the quick low sounds like a 12 or 10 w7 can.
i believe its alpine but might be pioneer but one of them has a 34" subwoofer. i **** you not.

could that even be mounted in a wall and support itself? or would it have to rest on a support at the magnet?

THe most impressive thing is that it gains 2000 watts peak power handling just from the first paragraph to the bullet list below that!!! That's some woofer!



Have you ever noticed that the people who go to the extreme of customizing their $100,000 cars with the biggest and most blinged out wheels, custom alligator skin interiors, and even steering wheels encrusted with diamonds always seem to have the same 12; woofers as the 16 year-old kid down the street? For these people, the word excess doesn't cross their minds when it comes to customizing their car. So, MTX has crafted an all new, 22" SuperWoofer for anyone who's got what it takes to go to the extreme;the MTX Audio JackHammer T9922. JackHammer is the most enormous, mind-blowing subwoofer ever created. You will literally not believe it until you see it. Standing in at 23; tall, 320 pounds, and with 10,000 watt peak music power handling, you will be hard-pressed to find something that will get in the ring with this heavyweight.

Carbon fiber and glass fiber dust cap with aluminum honeycomb center

Expanded polypropylene cone with mica filler for reduced mass and increased stiffness

FEA designed progressive roll spider with 10 AWG integrated tinsel leads woven in to allow for 2.5” of linear cone movement one way


900 ounce strontium ferrite magnet with extended magnetic field gap technology and aluminum shorting ring

6.5 voice coil with a flat wound, long-excursion design incorporating 2.5; of x-max and 17 AWG high temperature aluminum wire

Aluminum heatsink to maintain the optimum voice-coil temperature 6,000 RMS, 12,000 peak music power

It was released at CES. It's aight, but who has enough room to mount a 23" deep sub and house that monster in the box it'll take plus give it the 10 kW it'll starve for. Hell, there was another 10kW sub released there and HiFonics also released their new 10kW amp. Wonder what the fascination with 10kW is this year?

if I had an icecream truck I could rock one of those or maybe even two. A local shop of mine has it on display they are going to configure it for the texas heat wave coming up in july. They had a test box but the air pressure blew it to pieces.

Personally, I don't know the guy, but who the fuck are you to laugh at the guy having lightning subs? True, they aren't the best, but how do you even know which model he has? They may be of better quality than what you have. We all started somewhere. For some, Lightning is a good start becasue they are fairly decent priced yet offer what the person wants. Who are you to think that you are that person's superlative? What do you have that's so grand? Better yet, what makes you think you are better than him? True, I'm not a big lightning fan, but it's not my place, or yours to laugh at someone because their taste is different than mine, or yours. You should take your attitude and shove it up your a$$ along with your head and your ego. Fuckhole...

BTW, you've got Xplode stuff in your car, maybe you shouldn't make fun until you get all better equipment. And, judging by all the other Ricey products you have, I'd be willing to bet your subs are W0's since everything else you have is entry level. I'd also bet that since they(yours) are in a bandpass box that his lightning stuff would probably sound as good as yours if it's in the right enclosure, being as JL's stuf wasn't really designed for bandpass boxes. Shut your fucking piehole bitch boy.

sounds to me like MTX's best attempt to make a production version of adires parthenon.

did you see the xmax? 23 inches of depth, and enough physicists and EE's in engineering to understand motor strength comes from slug width rather than depth, and the thing still only has 2.5 inches of xmax?

I dunno, with the xmax wars over, contests of industrial design just dont seem impressive anymore.
