Model Reviewed: id max 12D4

Strength:

Geniously built, goes very low and loud

Weakness:

None so far

I had originally bought 2 15" L7s but discovered that the box would take up my entire trunk. So i got 2 idmax 12s and just put them in a sealed box just to brake them in. After the break in period i builted a ported box for them. The box is about 5.10 sq ft with two 4 inch aeroports for the box. It is tunned @ 30 hz. They are both running of a hifonics brutus bx1500 amp. This amp is supposed to give them 750 watts each and i believe thats plenty they shake like crazy and my seat in the car doesnt even fold down. The bass goes very low and it hurts my ears. Very loud subs i would highly recomend them.

Model Reviewed: ID Max V.3 D4

Strength:

Good response at most all freqs. Goes low as it should, only sealed box on this one.

Weakness:

9 inch mounting depth, nothing really

Great sub, goes low, they are as good as people say. Remember that this is an efficient sub 93db I think, so that 1000 watts rms is not accurate, a 500 wrms amp could make this thing pop, but that is normal in my opinion, I have no idea how those companies rate their subs. My PPI PC 2150 will rock any sub that has twice the recommended power rating so I wouldnt recomend what the manufacturer says.

Deep Bass, high excursion, clarity is impressive.

Weakness:

Had a voice coil problem with the v.2

These ID MAX's are really loud, I have three of them running off of three directed 1100d's. Pretty impressed with these besides the voice coils on the v.2 's were messed up. Image is sending me the new v.3's.

Model Reviewed: 2002 Image Dynamics V3 IDMAX12D4

Strength:

Design Motor Structure surface area of cone SPL/SQ

Weakness:

I blew it but that was my amp i think none really it kicks!

I LOVE the IDMAX! What an amazingly clean sounding subwoofer. It hits with such precision ( as much as a 12" possibly could ) and takes almost any amount of power ... its incredible. It sounds almost like a 15" sub. CRAZY. The engineers over @ Image Dynamics (www.imagedynamicsusa.com) sure know their stuff. I had only one problem with it. I blew out one of the voice coils. Dont know how considering i was running 400 watts to it but... i think the amp has a SERIOUS problem and it was all the amps fault. Guess its time for a new one.

Strength:

Output,Power,SQ,SPL.........you name it .

Weakness:

How bad you feel when your back glass falls out and your eyes are jiggling in their sockets.

Wow. Thats all i can say. This sub wrecks shop in every department and will take as much power as you can give it. The JBL 1200.1 is the perfect match for this sub.I have one sitting in a sealed box where my back seat used to be.......I swear im gonna be deaf before im 25. ID RULES!!!
