    Total newb needs advice - thanks in advance

    My Dayton HO 12 is on its way to me so my next move is enclosure fabrication. Can you confirm that this graph is correct and would you really suggest a box tuned as low as 22 hz? I don't think I've ever seen an enclosure tuned below 29-30 hz. Also, does winISD specify the actual size of the...

    your broken amps

    Cadence FXA-5100 -- (Specs) A friend of mine gave this to me and One or two (of the five) channels may or may not be working. I don't have the time or equipment necessary to check it. It's possible that he's wrong and the amp is perfectly fine, he's an idiot sometimes... Just PM me an offer...

    Ready to pull trigger on IDMAX12 (I think), Need Help

    Thanks everyone for the input. Also, particular thanks to you blazian87. I ended up ordering the HO 12 DVC. I decided to use the money I saved (by skipping the IDMAX) for a quality custom enclosure. I was thinking about building my own originally but have decided to defer to a pro instead. Any...

    Ready to pull trigger on IDMAX12 (I think), Need Help

    Any input on stereo integrity? I'm also now looking at the sundown x12 as a possibility. Again, SQ is the primary goal, 1200w at either 1 or 2 ohms, limited space for install, box can be sealed or ported, it really just depends on the sub. I am looking for consistent response and a sub that can...

    Ready to pull trigger on IDMAX12 (I think), Need Help

    I've received a few interesting PM's in response to the creation of this thread. One such message said that buying an IDMAX means that I'm paying for branding and overhead because the sub itself is really only worth half the price. I was told that for less money, I can get more product. I've...

    Ready to pull trigger on IDMAX12 (I think), Need Help

    Thank you for all the input everyone. I haven't pulled the trigger yet because I've been taking the time to consider everyone's advice and take a look at some of the competition. Thank you for taking the time to model this out and share it. Is this program available as freeware and might you...

    Ready to pull trigger on IDMAX12 (I think), Need Help

    Thanks for the input, much appreciated. So before I buy this IDMAX (leaning towards V4 based on your knowledge) today or tomorrow- is there a better sub in this ~$500 (or less) pricerange, at the 12" size, ~1000w rms, that is approximately equal to or better than this sub for the above stated...

    Let me rephrase question 3- If you had an IDMAX12 in front of you, and you were getting ready to do an install in your vehicle (chevy silverado ext cab), and your goals were same as mine are mentioned above, which enclosure would you choose and why? Thanks for your input!

    Ready to pull trigger on IDMAX12 (I think), Need Help

    Hi people I called woofersetc today to order an IDMAX12 for a setup I'm going to begin. I have three questions- When I called woofersetc, they told me they have both the IDMAX V3 and V4 version of the sub. My number one goal is to produce accurate subsonic frequencies over the subsonic range...
