Every Thiele-Small figure comes from MTX's own Tech Data Sheet for this model. MTX gives each coil its own model number and measures it separately, so these are this driver's parameters rather than a family average.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-highlight\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis driver's Qts is 0.58. System Q can only rise as the box shrinks, so no sealed enclosure of any size puts this woofer at the 0.707 maximally flat alignment, and a box large enough to approach it would not fit a trunk. Built to MTX's own recommended airspace it lands at Qtc 0.908, which is above maximally flat: a lift near resonance and a full, punchy midbass. If you want the extra depth rather than the sealed box's smaller cabinet and gentler power demands, we build a ported wedge for this same driver that reaches 31.3 Hz.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTrunk-Load Wedge Design Explained\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe driver mounts on the vertical trunk-lid-side face and fires rearward into the trunk cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSeat-Side Face Matches Seat Lean\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAngled face matches the roughly 20 degree factory seat lean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTrunk-Lid-Side Face Fires the Woofer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVertical baffle, cone firing rearward into the trunk cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTrunk Cavity Loading\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trunk acts as an acoustic extension for a smoother presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePreserves Trunk Cargo Space\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wedge tucks against the seat back and the space in front stays usable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEngineered for the MTX 7512-22\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1.25 cubic feet net on MTX's published figures: the 7512-22 reads Qtc 0.908 with resonance at 48.5 Hz and half power at 40.0 Hz. That is MTX's own recommended sealed volume for this driver. Anechoic half power lands at 40.0 Hz, before any cabin gain. MTX publishes the driver displacement, 0.077 cubic feet, on the Tech Data Sheet's own Disp field, and it is taken out of the net figure. The separate Volume Displacement field on the product page is swept cone volume and is not what a box calculation subtracts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlignment Numbers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"df-tier\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDriver\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSystem Qtc\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003efc\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eF3\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMTX 7512-22 D2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eQtc 0.908\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e48.5 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40.0 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMounting Geometry\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe baffle is cut to 11.188 in for MTX's 12.750 in frame. The rear panel rakes 20 degrees, so the cavity deepens from 8.88 in at the top to 14.34 in at the base, and the 7.44 in motor clears it with 0.75 in to spare. MTX publishes no bolt hole circle for any of its subwoofers, so the baffle ships undrilled with a threaded insert kit and stainless machine screws: set the driver in its recess, mark its holes, drill and press the inserts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the Numbers Rest On\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-grid\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLangboard Elite MDF\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePremium 3\/4 in MDF throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eV-Groove and Dado Joinery\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCNC cut V-grooves at every panel intersection, sides and brace seated in dados.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDouble-Layer 1.5\" Front Baffle\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo bonded 3\/4 in MDF sheets at the driver face, the outer layer machined as a flush recess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"po-card\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMTX's Published Parameters\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7512-22: Fs 31 Hz, Qts 0.58, Qes 0.69, Qms 3.73, Vas 51.28 L, Mms 222 g, Bl 7.52 N\/A, Re 0.88 ohm.

A parallel load at or under 1 ohm needs an amplifier rated for it. Confirm the final load against your amplifier's minimum stable impedance before powering the system. MTX's 7512-44 is the dual 4 ohm version of the same woofer, and it is a different driver with its own Qts and Vas, so it has its own enclosure rather than sharing this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower handling is 750 watts RMS.
