I currently have 2 12" Image dynamics id max subs wired at 1 ohm on a powerbass asa1500.1, they are in a custom built box, I can't rememeber the specs right now, they slam good and sound good, I was just seeing if you guys could think of 2 12's that'll be better for a mix of spl and music or maybe even a single 15, I also used to own a single 15" audioque hdc3 in a cust box that I really enjoyed...so if you guys think of anything let me know

So there's no subs that'll play louder but still sound musical?

You wont get anything much louder unless you get a bigger amp. It wouldnt be worth it to get new subs.

Alright well I've been thinking of a new amp also beacuse I can tell my subs want more power, so amp suggestions along with subs?

a single 12" IDmax bumps pretty good in a proper box so do u know specs of ur custom built box ?


also while that pb asa is a decent amp u shoud get a better 1 like maybe a sundown 2000D ..

No I can't really remember I just know I gave my buddy who builds boxes professionally the specs from image dynamics and he tuned it for high spl but still a good music tone, ya I'm thinking I get something like that or a AQ2200 or something like that

well yeh AQ 2200 for a good budget amp

i have a 12" idmax powered off 1000wrms & though its sounds great INside my wagon it doesnt sound loud OUTside of it but i dont care about that since i care about in car sound , have mine in a sealed box which never fails to amaze any1 who hears it & cant believe that its sealed

if he used their 28hz ported recommendation then its not that loud but more SQ than loud - i tried that box last wk with mine so i know 1st hand ....

I think it's at like 34 hz, the single AQ hdc3 15" I had almost seemed as loud if not louder
