Dave, Im not insulting your audio knowledge by any means, we all know you are the stereo guru. But have you had a chance to listen and compare them side by side?
Here's just some of the specs..

----------------------JL10W7---------MTX T9510-44

Xmax (one way)---------.90"-------------1.00"
Xmech (peak to peak)---2.8"-------------4.00"
Power (RMS/Peak)----500/1000w---------750/1500w
Voice coil dia---------2.75"-------------3.5"
Min enclosure vol.
sealed/vented -------1.0/1.125------- 0.625/0.75

On top of that the MTX has a Rubber sorround, heatsink, and a much stronger alloy cone compared to the W7's foam and plastic.
