OK Im looking for 1 SUB. Just 1. 300RMS reaches peak excursion with it. Ive been looking into a few subs and im into SQL. A good mix.

Choses-
12" IDQ D4 V.2 ($170+shipping ??)
12" Alpine Type R ($130+shipping)
12" Cerwin Vega V-MAX ($110+shipping)
Also couldnt find a RE sub to fit but if there is one i would like to take a look at that one also.

Any other subs also welcome to a recommendation.

Have you looked at the Kicker CompVr? The Cerwin Vega sub is also a nice choice.

IDQ will give you best sound quality

Vmax will give awesome SQ and awesome SPL - id say best bang for buck with Vmax

tpye-r not a big fan of alpine other than hed units

Adire Shiva is another good consideration. It will reach full excursion with 300W.

Those are all good subs, but you can get them all cheaper than that.

The IDQ can be found at www.audio-n-more.com for $159 - shipped

The VMAX can be found on ebay for $90.00 shipped.

what about the RE SE12? That supposed to run around 189 i think. What kind of power would that need to run and how does that compare to the V-Max and IDQ?

OK cant get the Shiva. Not right load for my amp. And Im debating now between the V-Max IDQ and SE12(if i can find the RMS needed for peak). Ive heard the V-Max has great SPL and good SQ. The IDQ has great SQ and decent SPL. Would the loudness of the IDQ be greatly lower than the V-Max? Would the 1 IDQ be louder than 2 RF subs on a Pioneer 760max amp. I can buy that setup off my friend. ANd how would the V-Max compare to that setup also.

bump. i cant decide on the sub. i dont see why the IDQ is so much more if the V-Max is very close in SQ and more SPL. please help I cannot test either of these... none around.

Right now i'm running 2 12" polk gnx's, would it make a big difference if i were to 'add' 2 v-max's as well? or would i be better off with just the v-max's?
