Anonymous | Granted that each individual "superwoofer" was given the proper box, appropriate power, and used in the same vehicle....... Which one would come out on top......aka THE LOUDEST??? Now, let's be more imaginative and less technical..hehe ![]() |

Silver Member Username: InvainMichigan United States Post Number: 296 Registered: Aug-04 | Wouldn't that be impossible to tell unless you actually did give them the proper box, appropriate power, and used them in the same vehicle....... and you should test them all with the same equipment too. Actually, somebody should try that. Would cost a lot though. |
Anonymous | that's why I am asking all with experience..and I'm hoping for unbiased answers. Seems to me like all those who are capable of answering...are afraid to answer or they simply "don't care" even though most or all do care. |

Furthermore, a fair comparison would be anechoic, and if you were to put all the woofers beside each other in a typical enclosure, they'd be so close to each other in SPL that it really wouldn't be worth spending the money to compare them. One sub really wouldn't blow out the other, although it may show a little more SPL (within 1db of difference). Once you get into this type of comparison with these types of subs, you really should start choosing on what your ears prefer. |
BaByBrOcK Unregistered guest | RE MT - Happy now?? Is that an answer you're looking for? In all seriousness, Jon's right, it is what your ears like. There is no loudest sub, but the MT is pretty bada$$, that is if u properly power it. |

Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 7320 Registered: Dec-03 | for a single sub? probably that $6000 sub MTX made. That 300 pound job that's like 3' across. heh that thing just has the raw displacement. http://www.caraudiocentral.net/forums/showthread.php?t=600 there's pics and video of it |
Silver Member Username: InvainMichigan United States Post Number: 301 Registered: Aug-04 | Yeah, I've seen that. The only thing I don't get is it only has 2.5 inches of excursion. On the site their not sure if that is one way or peak to peak, but still, even one way; isn't that small for a 300 pound sub? I meen some 12's and 15's can have 1 - 2 inches peak to peak, can't they? I would think something with a diameter of 3 feet would be able to move a ton, like 8 inches or so. Maybe I'm missing something though. I also wonder how loud the 36" Audiobahn sub is. Even though Audiobahn is crap, still, it's as big as the mtx. I think it costs a lot more than 6k too. |
Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 2977 Registered: May-04 | Oh, I thought you were referring to what people call the "superwoofers", subs that do good at both SQ and SPL such as the W7, ID Max, Eclipse Ti, Re X.X.X., Brahma, etc. |
Silver Member Username: InvainMichigan United States Post Number: 302 Registered: Aug-04 | Take a look at this. It's supposedly the largest sub in the world. http://forums.audioholics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2119&page=1&p p=10 (copy the url and take the space out between the p and p, retarted filters on the boards wouldn't let me post the url with "p p" in it. Lol. |
