Re: whats a jackhammer sub?


Hi. Sounds god-awful.
http :// akamaipix.crutchfield,com /ca/reviews/2005/0125/jackhammer.jpg















From the review. "MTX's JackHammer subwoofer: Billed as the subwoofer
that "other woofers have nightmares about," the MTX JackHammer is a
2-foot tall, 320-pound behemoth that makes you proud to be an American.
This 22" subwoofer handles 5,000 watts RMS (up to 10,000 watts peak),
and features a 900-ounce (that's a little over 56 pounds, folks) magnet
and a 6.5" voice coil. The JackHammer is set up for high SPL (Sound
Pressure Level), but you can purchase an replacement cone assembly that
allows you to switch quickly to Sound Quality performance (and you don't
have to remove the speaker from its enclosure to make the switch). There
was a constant crowd around this woofer throughout the show, jaws open,
staring in awe as the woofer cone moved in and out. Sometimes excess is
a good thing!"

If you have a trillion watts you are in a 747. This is BS that anyone in
their right mind would ignore.















You are being hyped.















The LAWS of physics (not the local basshead) say that max power is
volts x current (call Mr Ohm) and you have no way to exceed that.















Get real and study for great sound. I have been a judge and consultant
for longer than youve been alive

'Pimp my Ride' fitted one in a car and had to use an engine crane to
lift it in! It had to be installed on a specially built subframe because
it weighed so much!















Good 'Pose' value but you couldn't safely use it ,It would seriously
damage your hearing. They actually installed a 'decibel' meter in the
same car. You could always try the 'Pimp' website.

Look it up here:
http :// www .mtx,com /caraudio/products/subwoofers/jackHammer.cfm

Basically a 22" cone with an Xmax of 63.5mm. 900oz magnet. Recommended power
of 3000-6000 watts. This thing oozes "excess".

If only there was somewhere, a river of information if you will, where
anyone could quickly search this data....

Not as big as the one in Back to the Future. I just saw that last night.
What did the Doc say the power was going to be in watts to that speaker ??
I'm sure he said it.

http :// www .justfuckinggoogleit,com /search.pl?query=pmc+speaker%20jackhammer

but there are perfectly good reasons to ask a group and not just do a random search, but by
clicking on the "images" in google, one can find most objects even a non jackhammer.

Re: whats a jackhammer sub?

A jackhammer sub is a ridiculous "statement" piece that MTX built just
because they could.

It is something they can haul around to shows and other special events and
have people "oh" and "ah" at it's ridiculous size and weight (it REQUIRES a
forklift for installation as not even two people can manage this
monstrosity). It's a little like the new 108" LCD TV Sharp has just built.
Though they have not announced a price it will likely be $70k+, yet there
are many other cheaper options that will deliver the same thing (a high-end
1080p projector for instance). It was built just because they could do it,
it get's people's attention at trade-shows, but in the "real-world", it is
not all that practical. With the Jackhammer you have two issues that make
it impractical A) it's size and weight make it difficult to install or find
a place to install and a cutom enclosure MUST be built to support the rear
weight (it is a 22" sub but what makes it impractical is that it is over two
feet deep) and B) the power necessary to drive it to even HALF it's rated
power would require a VERY large aftermarket alternator (or several), and
several HUGE Class D amplifiers. And even then, I have heard it is not all
THAT impressive. Again, the same results can be had for a fraction of the
price.

It is a statement piece, pure and simple. It is designed for trade-shows to
demonstrate to the world just how creative and impressive MTX subwoofers can
be. That's it.
