[QUOTE="destined2race, post: 7306061, member: 594520"] Heres a review on that debate from an unbiased source: At first glance I realy liked the way this sub looked and felt to be much better quality than the IDQ put the sub in a 1,5 sealed box powered with an Alpine PDX 1000.1 and was immediatly happy with the sound at low-mid volume...at higher volumes it slapped and bottomed out..it became very apparent this sub is overrated I sold the sub to a friend who is running a JL 500.1 to it and this ended up being a nice combo but running 1000 watts to one is not good...in the end this sub is overrated/over priced/over hyped and is exactly opposite of what the forum hyper's say I hear all the time that Image Dynamics is great for the money...lulz if you call products built in China and doubling up the power ratings on paper to look good to get a higher price than this is the sub. A w7 absolutly mops the floor with this sub in build quality/performance in every way and I know this will tick alot of people off but a JLw6v2 even tops the IDMAx...don't belive me? measure the two to see which has a flatter BL curve and stays more linear through it's operating range....get a 1000 watt amp and run it on the IDMAX and then the w6v2 and see which one truly does well at higher power and then you will see. I'm not telling anyone to believe me compare for yourself [/QUOTE]
