Gold Member Username: DuckaShelby Twp., MI United States Post Number: 1230 Registered: Jan-08 | I can get one for $150 should I do it? I hear positive things about these subs, but i want to hear it from people who have them. Are they very loud? or more sq? how do they compare to jl 13w7's? or alpine type r 12's(that is what i have currently) I would plan on getting a second eventually. Would it be difficult to find a second v2? All opinions and reviews welcome. |

Gold Member Username: DuckaShelby Twp., MI United States Post Number: 1241 Registered: Jan-08 |
I sure did. Not sure if I want to keep it or not. I have it in a crappy sealed box and i dont think it is loading correctly the way it is positioned, because it is moving alot and not making much noise. I had one of my type r's in the same box and same position and the IDMAX out performed it in every way. It does sound very nice. I was listening to Bawitabaw and it sounded like kid rock was in my car. I need to put it in a nice ported box rather than the leaky sealed that it is in. Any tips on where to position a sealed box in a trunk car? I intended on getting pics of the sub, but I fail. I'll do that tomorrow possibly. I did however get a pic of this monster. ![]() ^thats 8000wrms at 1 or 4 ohms. It was just comical to look at because it looks like they took a regular amp and just increased its size proportionally. (Btw that little disc on the left is a cd ![]() The dude I got the sub from had a ton of sweet car audio stuff (including the above amp) such as A huge US amps splash series that is a solid 48" long, 2 DD 9515s, a stroker sub, a huge 13" kenwood sub with a fuse on it, a bunch of JL stuff, and some nice subs and amps. I gots to do work on building another box for the IDMAX. Any suggestions? |
Gold Member Username: Snowball123West Allis, WI Post Number: 3199 Registered: Oct-07 | yeah the sub should sound much better in a ported box. Lemme buy them R's |

Gold Member Username: DuckaShelby Twp., MI United States Post Number: 1242 Registered: Jan-08 | Pics after lunch... Fun fact dont place a large subwoofer next to you computer. lol I set my IDMAX next to my computer and it made it go into hibernation or sleep mode. It would not turn back on until I moved my subwoofer away. ooops |

Gold Member Username: DuckaShelby Twp., MI United States Post Number: 1243 Registered: Jan-08 | When i had the IDMAX in a 1 cuft sealed box it was not very loud at all.

Gold Member Username: Snowball123West Allis, WI Post Number: 3201 Registered: Oct-07 | I love that basket. And your amp isn't even giving it the full 1,000 RMS right? Need to get a better amp to match it with later. |
Gold Member Username: DuckaShelby Twp., MI United States Post Number: 1244 Registered: Jan-08 | I'm sure he would sell it if you got the bread. ![]() ![]() |
