sell Crystal CMP's for idmax/Brahma/RL-P

[loud-n-low 10+ year member]

Opinions please......Thinking about selling my basically new Crystal COMP 12's for 2 idmax,Brahma,etc. I like the sound of a low tuned ported box(28hz) but would not rule out a sealed. I have no experience with these subs,please let me know personal expierence with these,or other sq/sql brands.I favor the subs with real good low end.Thanks.

Why exactly are you wanting to switch? More output? Better sound quality? Just need something to do?

something to do for one..Iran them in 1.5 sealed each and didnt get the high output at loe frequencies i hoped for.Might try ported tuned low,I guess I just have heard about the idmax,and Brahma being very good choices for that. I have a 1000 watt US amp to run em with

Also since the idmax is $350 @ sounddomain, and the Brahma is $349 @ acoustic-visions.com,price wont be a deciding factor.

Well, I'm going to say go with the new Brahma.

And I only say that because no one (or very very few people atleast) have used the new incarnation yet, and I'm interested to see what people think //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Yes, it's the new version.

What's different? Smaller coil, little bit less excursion (.5mm)...I don't have the specs to compare side-by-side, but I believe it was a total redesign.

Buy it. Try it. Let us know what you think //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
