...I'm talking about clean power. You can blow any sub with distorion.

If you can hook a sub into the wall (120 volts @ 60 Hz) and it dosen't blow that's impressive.

Not the MXS subs, the 9500s...

Shouldn't a round sub have less displacement than a square sub (greater surface are)

If they only made the L7's with more excursion. I'm saying it has pretty good excursion </font>[/QUOTE]I am saying the MTX MXS have more displacement than a Kicker L7 and it has an xmax of about 16.5 mm, I am sure a 9500 with 25.5 mm xmax would definately have more displacement.

9500 10" $749
9500 12" $849
9500 15" $949

Any pair of 9500's need a 1501D
Single woofers require an 801D

Hope that helps [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

you don't have to go that far , just run a few hundred watts of a square wave with a long cycle and you'll melt the VC

i would say that demo would definatly have a biased
this is not an independant test

i would also bet that almost any high power amp could destroy one of those 9500's. A mtx 1500d on a single 9500 will most likely destroy it. There are limitations on every woofer. But this is one of the exceptional ones on the market.

It depends, we ran a 1500D on a pair of MTX MXS 12's and the woofers are still going strong.

ok so the 9500 is 850

the Mxs/ 7500 are about 350

soo I could buy 2 Mxs/ 7500's for 150 less than a 9500 and theoretically get more output (about 33mm of x-max combined)

do the Mxs/7500's sound just as good as the 9500's ???

I can't comment on the 9500's SQ but the MXS is world's above the MTX T8000, of course I am of the belief that SQ wise any $100 sub will sound excellent if installed properly at normal SQ levels (>125 dB)
