New MTX Subs

[Bumpin Expo]

I saw that MTX came out wit some new subs. Im thinking about getting the new model Mtx 8000's. Have u guys heard nething about their new subs?

[SSpiro]

I've yet to hear anything about them.. but MTX makes some good stuff.

[Bumpin Expo]

Yeah i know, the prob wit their past subs is the dust cap kept flyin off. Their new amps are bad ass. A lot more power for a lot less money. They also made their amps a lot smaller but they weigh more

yeah, we just got in a bunch of brand new MTX stuff at my CC, we got the MXA4001, MXA4002, and MXA6001 amps, and the MZS1004 and MZS1204 subs. +1 the amps absolutely slam, we only have the 12 hooked up so far, it sounds awesome too.

changes in amps from the 2003 Thunder line: added a subsonic filter, added remote gain control, and in most cases increased watts

the MZS1004/MZS1204 replaced the 6000 series subs. they increased volume displacement by 41% and RMS handling by 50.

the MXS1004/MXS1204 replaced the 8000 series subs. they increased volume displacement by 30%

not to mention the redesigning the looks

:lol: I thought I was the only one who caught that..

i think we only have the MZS1004/1204, the ones that replaced the 6000 series. we have one not the other, im not sure which one we got in, i think theyre the MZS, but whichever ones we have, im pretty sure the 12s are $159. Buy one get one half off this week.

yeah i went to citrus and they didnt have the ones that replaced the 8000's yet. jus the 6000 so iwas hoping they had those out. Id get the 6000's but im waiting for the 8000's cuz i want more bump. When u think the 8000 replacements will come in?

[kpr10is]

prolly within a couple weeks, we just got those 3 amps and the 6000 replacements in, some came on wednesday and some yesterday. ill try and remember to let u know if we get em.

[Bumpin Expo]

thanks a lot man

[kpr10is]

no prob, in my opinion tho u prolly wont need more than the 6000 ones, we have one 12 hooked up right now and it slams pretty well, and ur car is basically a big sound box, no back seat to go through like me.

but since ur coming from the type e's...just save up a bunch of money and get truly bad ass subs/full system, instead of upgrading to stuff thats only a lil better, that ull wanna upgrade again later. thats what im saving for right now. trying to do it once and have it last.

[Bumpin Expo]

u think 2 8000 12's on a brutus 1500 will slam? im gonna port them also

[stangerang]

i want a 15'' 9500 series....... they look awesome.........

i think that might be the next new speaker i buy........

hell yeah itd slam, esp in a car like an explorer
just to give u some info...we havent gotten info on ohms yet so i dunno how youd wire it or the ohm load youd have but heres the little general info i have...

the MXS (8000 replacement) 12's suggest 1.0-1.5 cubic ft sealed and 1.5-2.5 cubic feet ported. the voice coil diameter is 2.38 inches. the magnet is 93 oz. Xmax is 16.5 mm.

Price range i think will be 219.95 for the 10s and 269.95 for the 12s full retail price. beyond that, whether u have hook ups at citrus or whatever is all you.

By the way all this info is copyright MTX Audio and i only know it before it comes out cuz i work there :)

[Bumpin Expo]

sounds like a hell uv a sub. And yeah the 9500 12" in the sledgehammer box hit around 160 db. We were talkin bout it the other day when i went over there. Thanks for all the info man

I've never heard that exact term before but Imagine it's just like an engine, bore x stroke. So cone surface area x Xmax. The total swept volume of air a speaker can move.
