The Martin Audio WMX is a compact, high performance flown or
ground stacked subwoofer featuring our trademark Hybrid™
loading. Primarily intended for use with the W8LM/W8LMD, it
shares the same cabinet width and is directly compatible with the
W8LM and its flying hardware.

A single long-excursion 18" (460mm)/ 4" (100mm) coil driver is
front loaded by a hyperbolic horn with an ultra-low flare rate. The
rear of the driver is reflex loaded to extend the LF output to below
the natural cut-off point of the horn. This Hybrid™ technique
marries the very high efficiency of horn loading with the extended
low frequency response of a reflex enclosure.
