Memphis Mojo Series
The mojo was originally designed as an SPl woofer, but the latest changes create better performing subs while maintaining their "made for big bass" reputation. New features include concave cones with inter-woven carbon making them stiffer and stronger, with less flex. additionally, the baskets have been redesigned to feature a larger surface area that improves heat displacement. like the original, it still retains its field-serviceable removable motor design. www.memphiscaraudio.com
Massive SQX
The SQX woofer is a sound-quality subwoofer that's very unique in design. Buried within its aesthetically appealing exterior are audiophile enhancements that are said to provide very low distortion, high sensitivity, great power handling and astonishing sound quality. Thanks to its quad 1-ohm voice coil and massive 300- ounce magnet, the SQX has an efficiency rating of 101dB with 1-watt of input, meaning less wattage is needed to provide high SPl results. www.massiveaudio.com
SUBS
Dynaudio ESoTar2 1200
The Esotar 1200 subwoofer features a unique 100mm (nearly 4") diameter aluminum voice coil, massive magnet and mSP cone diaphragm. mSP provides the ideal combination of stiffness, low weight and inner damping to naturally reproduce the lowest frequencies without distortion. its precise design and low tolerances enable this 12" driver to reproduce high SPl down to the lowest notes by precisely following the amplifier's signal, even up to highest output levels. www.dynaudiousa.com
MTX TS75 Series
Buckling corners can be a limiting factor for square subs, so mTX devised a roll technology using four circumferential undulations in each corner, which allow the surround to flex evenly. This enables the new TS75 series to have greater linear excursion and, thus, increase output. additionally, four rear support bolts reduce stress to the mounts while adding greater rigidity to the enclosure, thereby reducing resonance not associated with music reproduction and improving sound quality. www.mtx.com
Phoenix Gold RSD Competition
Built to perform at the same level as subs costing three times as much, the rSd competition Series uses expanded polypropylene cones that are said to be responsive while delivering superior dampening. The tri-flow voice coil air venting allows for extended high-power play periods while the high-excursion butyl rubber surround provides lower distortion at higher SPl. Power numbers are impressive-600 watts rmS/1,200 watts peak-for drivers retailing only $230 to $250. www.phoenixgold.com
