Tell 'im Steven... These young kids are SOOOOO gullible these days! See how POWERFUL marketing is? "You need a cap!" "You need an Edsel, too!" CH-CHing!!! wich amp to Jackhammer - Page 2 -- posted image. SOME people on this board already KNOW what you're gonna say!
::::EDIT::::
And I would hardly call the Jackhammer a "subwoofer". A 60Hz one-note wonder? Sure. Subwoofer? Nope... And I don't know WHERE someone got the idea it's "technically a sound quality woofer". Saw it, heard it. No SQ I could discern.
It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."

MTX 1000000 was a 60something inch sub... in mid 90s. they put one in a chevy van. it broke due to structural defects I believe. but Id tell your friend to contact mtx and have them build one of them for him........ yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

I seem to remember a Clarion 24 or 32" sub waaaayyyy back when. I do believe Mitsubishi also did a 24" at one time.   Dammit, it was a while ago.... mid-late 80's?

ya but did it way 320 pounds. You need to build a steal box, re-enforce the suspense, huge electrical system upgrade, sound deadning. etc. etc. its gimick not worth the loot.

I remember a sub, I believe it was a 32" sub and I think it was a Fosgate. It has been so long ago and I barely remember it, but the Jackhammer isn't the first. It was steup in a very small car sort of like a gimmick at a car show.

Note the word that keeps coming up again and again is "gimmick."  That should tell you something.  Hell, if you want an ultimate sub that will also be very musical, much more efficient and available by custom order for much less money than the MTX poseur you can have a driver built to your specs based on the Adire Parthenon motor, with whatever size transducer (i.e. "cone") you want attached to it.  Then spend the remaining $2k on your install.
