DD vs ID vs Hertz ~ 600-700RMS

[Finite]

Looking for a little advice. Between the DD 2512, ID IDMAX12, and Hertz HX300, which would you guys say has the hand up if running off of 600-700RMS?

I want it to sound extremely musical while still being loud. Will be going in the trunk of a sedan. Listen to mainly electronic music, dubstep, hiphop, synthpop, and rock. Space not an issue, no preference between sealed and ported.

Trunk is sound deadened, my 6x9s are taken out, and I have a small trunk entry passage in the backseat that folds down.

Fronts will be Hertz components with dedicated 2 chan amp.

Thank you

i would not buy the DD sub, just dont think it will sound as good. it might very well be loudest though.

using winisd, sealed, 600 watts, same box size, the idmax digs deeper and plays about 1 db louder than the hertz from 30hz to 100hz

ported, 600 watts, the hertz looks to dig deeper. plays 35hz and below 1 db louder, 35hz-~70hz the idmax plays 1db louder

i would say u cant go wrong either way, if ur not sure what ur going sealed or ported, either grab the cheaper if one is cheaper than the other

What box size did you use for sealed and ported?

Have you heard any of them first hand?

sealed was 1.7

ported i looked at 2 cubic foot, and 2.5, same results, of course with the bigger box they both got lower, but the hertz was flatter and played 35hz louder

i havent heard any of them in person

I've heard both sealed. I'd do the Hertz. I listen to the same kind of music. Hertz could be cheaper too.

What size boxes did you hear the IDMAX and Hertz in? Do you remember any distinct differences you heard between the two?
