well i just sold me boston spg and picked up an idmax 10 v3. can anyone tell me anything about the sub?

i bought it because of all the hype. also what size box would you recommend for those who know about the sub. im looking to get it sealed.

thanks all.


also i dont know where to mount my amps. i have 2. and dont have a whole lot of money to have a crazy plexied out one.

idmax is a hell of a sub..u made a good choice

i'd throw it in a ported box...

idmax>btl

btl may get louder but they sound like ****

had an idmax for a few years before my current sub. I loved it. bottom end on it isn't so great though in small sealed boxes, but that is to be expected. I would just go by ID's recommended enclosures, they are pretty spot on.

bigger box = lower extension + smoother response + lower power handling

smaller box = less lowend + peaky response + increased power handling

pick your poison

having lower extension and needing less power does not sound like a poison - maybe the bigger box required is the only drawback.

that was really useful info bro thanks.

would you guys recommend a ported then if i wanted smooth bass? i only switched to this sub cause i wanted a more SQ sub. i listen to R&B alot so i'd like the bass to be smooth.

So ported? Or Sealed?

Also what does peaky response mean.?

Ported tuned real low(28-30)
