Idmax true rms

I’ve seen them take rated so I’m guessing it’s user error. I will admit that I don’t think ID equipment can take much abuse though (personal dealings).
 
Looking into a recone and Oem stuff is pretty expensive @180 bux. Goin see if Fix my speaker/PSI audio can make it more durable with precision econowind voice.
 
You think a custom recone will dramatically change the sound?
Yes, and for the worse. ID recommends 500W for them for a reason, and that's that they're built to perform well there and your 2" coil will be efficient in that power range but will melt down as you push it beyond that.

If you plan to drive IDMax any harder than 500W your recone budget would be better spent on a sub that can handle the power you're trying to feed it.

Thanks, I wanted to see if they could increase the thermal capacity.

Hispl, do have any recommendations sub similar to idmax? Right now I have 2 idmax and re audio xxx (xbl2).

turn that xxx into an 18 or 15.

The goal here is to sound good and get loud right? Not to throw a **** ton of power to a sub for the sake of saying the sub can handle the power. Efficiency and box design should be the main focus, not the power handling. You can push a **** ton of air on just 500 watts.

Yup that’s the goal. Where can buy 12 spoke baskets?

Also what amps good efficient amp? Looking at brutal sounds 2.1 running it @2 ohms.

V.3 &v.4 are rated at 1000rms not sure where you’re getting that they recommend 500 from
