My guess - The Maxx series 2 since it had a significant x-over update.
darn. I knew the answer as I owned one. I had a similar experience when the movers dropped the crate at my front door after telling me it would never get in my house. I didn't know what to do as the crate was probably as large as Noah's Ark. I phoned Wilson Audio, spoke to Trent, told him the situation and asked what to do. Trent chuckled a bit as I assume he had similar phone calls before. Without hesitation he suggested I call a piano mover which I did. They were there within an hour and had the XS out of the crate and up a 17 step circular stair case to my sound room in under 30 minutes. An amazing sub. Sometimes my house shook depending on what I played
