But this is just one part of it, if I look at cone excursion the morel mw9 runs out of its xmax already at 60 watts. How about b&w sub? With a light guess of 7mm xmax, it runs out at 90 watts. Also aftermarket bmw product like audison apbmws8 has better response than mw9 and can handle 100 watts. And the sws 8x has enough xmax for 900 watts but other things won't handle that before the xmax is the limiting factor. Do you still think the morel mw9 will outperform b&w sub? I mean the difference is not huge, but it is clearly worse.
As a midbass driver? Yeah lol. The earthquake sws is a subwoofer and the B&W underseat is somewhere in between.

You don’t even have half the parameters needed on the b&w to model it either

Show us an rta with pink noise on your sws8 in your system and we can compare it to argentos
