Description

5512-44

The 55 Series, MTX's best selling subwoofer family, is a perfect mix of performance and value for enthusiasts that want to add extreme bass to their system without breaking the bank. MTX have squeezed an oversized cone into the standard 10", 12" and 15" frames, so the sub moves more air and gives you more bass. The woofer's movement cools the sub as it plays, so it doesn't overheat when you're rocking out. The special suspension exerts extra control when you're pushing the sub hard.

This subwoofer features the MTX Inverted Apex Surround. This is a departure from a traditional half roll surround. The Inverted Apex is narrower thereby increasing the surface diameter of the subwoofer cone enabling it to displace more air and generate higher SPL. The 55's are designed with a progressive suspension that lowers distortion resulting in improved sound quality even at high volume.

This subwoofer also incorporates Spider Plateau Venting which is a mechanical cooling process that targets cool air at the voice coil and a radial ribbed t-yoke that acts as a heat sink effectively managing the subwoofer temperature for long term rocking performance.

Excellent subwoofer.

I purchased this woofer about six months ago and installed in a sealed enclosure for use in the trunk of a 2014 Mustang. I am running it as the 5th channel off of an MB Quart 1100.5 amp. With this configuration, it provides more than adequate bass. You can "feel" the bass with this woofer; it has good punch and produces crisp, clean low frequency sound. Seems perfect for my application - probably the most bass my car could handle without needing Dynamat. Easy 5/5.

bring on the boom boom

I was very skeptical on a 15 because I listen to all types of music with a lot of rock thrown in. With this mtx in my ground shaker box it sounds fantastic with any type of music. Looks bad ass and with everyone in the area on a kicker/alpine kick it's fun to let them envy the odd one out. Bless everyone else's system out of the water

Wasn't expecting that.

I've always liked MTX but for some reason never liked the design of this one. I thought the surround was tiny and the cone just looked weak ????. Anyway customer brought his mini Cooper in for custom box. Long story short I built the box to 2.32 net tuned it @ 35 Hz with L port. I'm not Guna lie this thing sounded sooooo clean, crisp, and LOW!!! I literally could not believe it. (????or I'm just an amazing box builder haha). Anyway the sub handled the MTX thunder 500.1 power very well and is still bumping 8 months later w no problems. Recommend both sealed or ported to b on the big side of recommended air volume at at least 200-400 watts.
