MTX Audio RTS Series Subwoofers Are to Last

The RTS8-44 is one of MTX Audio's new 2011 Road Thunder RTS series subwoofers. The woofer has a power handling of 400 watts peak and 200 watts RMS and has been specifically design to withstand extreme amounts of power without failure or damage to the woofer. The woofer features a polypropylene woofer cone and high-roll rubber surround for increase durability, strength, performance, and greater volume displacement. For increased power handling an 8-layer 2" aluminum coil is used which enables the woofer to perform consistently at higher volume levels. The use of Spider Plateau Venting cools the voice coil directly for increased performance and power handling. The RTS subwoofer also features an Asymmetrical Linear Driver System (ALDS) that allows higher output with less distortion by creating constant linear movement that increases performance and sound quality. This RTS subwoofer was designed to be perfectly paired with an RTS amplifier and will deliver quality, rich and responsive bass that is often not seen by other woofers of its class.

MTX RTS8-44

This 8" DVC subwoofer arrived quickly. I built a .6 Cu Ft. enclosure to go behind the driver's seat in my Ford Ranger. I let it run for 8 hours hooked up to my home stereo to break in. It's output wasn't strong when crossed over at 70hz, but perked up nicely when crossed over at 120hz.

It has a nice thump, it doesn't go all the way down, but a bigger enclosure would help that. It handles power quite well -I'm pushing it with 200 watts. Overall, a rather capable 8" subwoofer, if a bit overpriced. I like the fact that it looks "normal", I don't like the subs that look like a transformer toy.
