Pulling My Hair Out, Help Me Find Something

[ctmaudi 10+ year member]

Everytime I decide on something, it doesnt work out. The AQ SD subs are only D4s, the DCON has a longer wait time then I really want (plus shipping kind of kills the price), FI orders are behind as well. Cant find any old REs, and not many others seem to make a good 12in ~300rms 4ohm sub.

I found a new ID12v3 D2 for $150 shipped. Should I grab it or keep looking?

A sub that works well sealed would be best since I planned to get the Crescendo 1000C4, which doesnt have a way to use a subsonic filter when bridging. If the sub wont work well sealed, Ill have to find another amp $200 or under that can do ~400 to a sub and 100x2 for the comps. The Hifonics ZXI-150.4 was next on the list.

Trying to stay $350 or under for sub and amp. Looking for a very efficient SQ sub, that can be some what loud. Tired of 10s, not sure I want to try 8s, and dont quite have the room for a 15 without going all out.

as for 15s, is it diameter u dont have or box size? there are some 15s that the manufacturer recommends like 1.5 sealed

Not really a fan of mainstream stuff. I like to have stuff no one around here knows. I know Im being a little picky, but Id rather do it once and be happy.

If I got a 15, it would likely have to be facing up, and I technically have the room for a 4cube box, but really want to try to save space and go with something easy to move around.

If Im better off waiting for the DCON I will, but if there is something else available now nearly as good, or as good, without spending an arm and a leg, Id rather do that.

I thought IDs were good?

I'm making 2 SQ 12's out of 2 MTX Thunder 8000 motors...Will be beefy little SQ 12"s if you want them custom I can put whatever you want on the motors. They are tight gap 2.5" coil motors, and I can make them take ~500w for quite cheap.

I ran a T5-12 in a folded tline box powered by a TRX1000D and that was SQ. sounded very clean. You can pick those up for about 350 total.
