Better Performance at Half the Cost!
The MTX Subwoofer is rated to handle the same power, but has greater surface diameter, and greater xmax, which results in 14% higher volume displacement, the result of which is more air moving and greater SPL.

Those Extra Dollars Really Don't Make Sense
The MTX Subwoofer is rated to handle 20% less power...but has a greater surface diameter and greater xmax, which results in 22% greater volume displacement and increased SPL. You'll pay 1/3 for the 5512-44, but get more bass with less amp power!
Additional Information
The 55 series subwoofers are built on the MTX tradition of delivering more than expected. These subwoofers feature a new Inverted Apex surround that increases surface area allowing for more air movement and higher SPL and a progressive suspension that lowers distortion resulting in increased sound quality. These subwoofers also incorporate Spider Plateau Venting which is a mechanical cooling process that targets cool air at the voice coil.
