Default they aren't very boomy subs.

more sound quality. reference December 2007's Car Audio &amp; Electronics magazine article on them.

Default for real SQ, 10's are the way to go...

Default is it possible that an extremely well tuned 12" woofer could produce the same SQ that your 10" does?

and while your at it, tell me your perfect subwoofer setup

Default I actually liked the way my IDQ12 sounded.

It was just underpowered while I had it. I only ad 300W going to it and it just wasn't enough. After I got my new amps and hooked up the IDQ temporarily, man did it sound good. If I could have molded that sub into the trunk somehow I probably would have kept it.

1 single 12, yes, but with precise box building, 24db x-over and equalization.

Default listen

I've seen your sig with the write ups on your stereo. You've done great work, used amazing components, and I'm sure it sounds great.

When I decide to post up what I'm putting in my car, I'm sure you can see that I've spent some time and money designing exactly what I want. When you posted such a negative comment like you did, it really made you look like a hater.

Many of us on this forum work in the 12v industry and would disagree with your statement that 10" woofers are the only way to go. It's a very ignorant comment, that would only lessen your credibility.

I've made a few on here and guys like HIS4 have called me out on it. The only difference is I know when I was wrong.

The beauty behind the forums is for all of us to share our experiences and benefit from them. The only catch is that we should be making forward progress.
