****SOLO-X vs. RE MT****

[violator5spd 10+ year member]

Judging from my ghetto calculations, the MT would be louder than the SoloX. When I have never heard the subs that are in question, I like to use this calculation to see which sub would be louder. I'm not saying it's right, because it's probably not...but hey, I can't afford to actually test each one.

Surface Area * Xmax = Big #

Whichever has the bigger Big # wins. So first we have the SoloX...

18 x 18 = 324sq.in. Surface Area

324 * 24.48Xmax = 7,931.52

Now the MT...

3.14 * 81 = 254.34sq.in. Surface Area (surface area of a circle = pie * r^2)

254.34 * (Xmax, which RE doesn't give on the website) = atleast the SoloX's 7,931.52

So, if you make the equation...

254.34 * z = 7,931.52 and solve for z, you'll get z = 31.18

So if the MT's Xmax is between 31 & 32 it would be about the same loudness, according to my ghetto equation. I figure the MT's Xmax is atleast that much, considering the XXX's is 32mm. So, the SoloX can **** a big one //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/toast.gif.bc0657bf54b9ee653b6438524461341e.gif

It's summer, I shouldn't be doing this much math...

No. It just means that he's uber smart. Something you're not!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Very true.... I think a Solo-X may work in a smaller car better. than a MT in a small car.

Were the **** did that come from? can you prove this? proly not cuz you like to talk out of your posterior but ill just ask anyways,,,,,

if you are a big shot drug dealer why dont you for gods sake buy better equipment?

like i said once already, im not a "big shot drug dealer." i dont make enough money to test all that stuff myself. and for those who asked, it is just weed

How come a 12" L7 owned the 15" XXX in spl according to v8s10 back in the day? The MT probly has the advantage in displacement.. and who's to say that the soloX doesn't move more than that (nonlinear). I think motor strength plays a very big role here too.. I do not know that much about these two woofers simply because i don't care that much about them (solo X, MT). I look more closely @ what i can afford.. ya know :thumbsupw

Oh, and your caluclations are

if i took the time to calculate all this my yeah you guessed it my Ma Audio subs would ****in blow both them away at at an 70mm! so once again im in here just to piss u all off! So //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/bawling.gif.6287aa5d1d447c8af063fc9466e822ef.gif about it according to this guys math my Ma subs would kill. :hilarious

Hey ih8rice... everyoneh8you

Must I repeat my self???? SHUT UP!!!!!!

I don't know about you, but when I was dealing weed, I was netting $400 a week with a clientele of just 20 people. THAT is small time. So, assuming you have a similiar business model/cash flow, that's $1600/month in free money. Also assuming you got a legitimate job to pay your regular bills, I don't see how you WOULDN'T have the money to buy any damm system just for the sake of trying it out. Unless, of course, you are doing stupid crap such as smoking all your profits or dealing on "credit" (like potheads are a real good credit risk //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif ). In which case, you ****. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/moon.gif.9d317aec3339ffe7fde0638df52c628a.gif

Otherwise, what the hell are you doing with all your profits?

A couple things come to mind...

*******, full of shit, learn how to type, no sub has 70mm one-way Xmax, especially MA Audio.

Oh, by the way, do you even know what X-max means? And no, it's not the amount of X's you can fit on the cone of the sub //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/idea.gif.5acb6a39a9b92425414c316dda202bad.gif

Someone wanna ban this fool?

 

[IH8RICE 10+ year member]

u go right a head and look em up if you really need to 70 mm Xmax linear peak-peak thats like what 35mm both ways. im not shittin u thats what the spec sheets say.
