A good subwoofer for sq

The IDMax is a special subwoofer. It doesn't need a lot of power to get stupid loud and it sound phenomenal. If you can fit it (it's deep) I think you'll love it as it will get downright violent with 500w. A lot of people like the W6v2, myself included, but I actually like the older W6's & W3's better. I've owned both new & old school W6's btw.

I looked into picking up some Fi woofers (Q's or SSD's) and I wasn't really thrilled by the amount of power they require and the email tag you have to play with them to get vague answer. The prices seem quite high too for a woofer that really doesn't seem that special. It's really deep, needs a bit of power, and it didn't suit my application well.

Someone mentioned Alumapro; those things are awesome. Are they still around? I had a pair of IB 10's that I absolutely adored...should've kept 'em. Their other subs are no slouches either. They're all SQ oriented yet are so efficient they absolutely pound with a small amp. No need for electrical upgrades and you're not sacrificing SQ or SPL. This kinda goes along with most light-coned woofers out there which Image Dynamics and JL Audio would both be in that category.

 
What about the Arc Audio Flatline? Nice SQ and gets really loud?
Try to use google: search for "site:caraudio.com flatline" or "site:diymobileaudio.com flatline"

I believe Arc's Arc10 and Arc12 subs are clones of an older IDQ subwoofer while Flatline is related IDMAX. Perhaps they may be a little better than ID subs.

duals, boss, and pyle are the best for sq.... sony is probably the best for spl.. If I were you I would get a 15" boss and a 10" pyle. Then get a kicker warhorse... All you need to do for electrical is to get a hybrid capacitor... prolly fifty farad or so. Oh yeah and neons make subs louder imo...
