[QUOTE="GSteg, post: 1237774, member: 543107"] Are you sure you're looking at the IDMAX? The IDMAX RMS rating is 1000w RMS. Maybe you're looking at the IDQ or IDv3? Anyways, the RMS of the sub does not dictate how loud a subwoofer gets. That is just a rating of how much power the voice coil may take for a period of time, not necessarly how loud. If RMS dictates how loud a speaker can get, then horn loaded compression drivers should be the quietest with less than 5w, but we all know that's not true [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] How much are you looking to spend and how many subwoofers do you need? Is this for pure sound quality or is it for just loudness? How loud do you need your bass to be? What type of music do you listen to? [/QUOTE]
