my old e15k (before the current ones) surpasses the type R in SQ and SPL. is a tad smoother on the low end and more detailed. u can compare this to the IDQ. the new ones should have no problem taking care of the type R's. not to mention u get 3 years warranty and an outstanding customer service. Ben and the rest are really helpful. they even have box designs on their website for customers to look at.

I think the Adire Shiva is about $125 shipped for a 12" so I guess the 10" would be cheaper. I'm not familiar with any of the Adire line though. GSteg should have more info. on them.

uh...audiobahn

SQ-wise, u would want to stay away from audiobahn. if u like distorted bass, then by my guest i would rather get the Type S over these anyday.

whohoo! k67p67 suggested a shiva 12's are 125 shipped each. they don't come in 10's though. the downside is the look of it (www.adireaudio.com)

or u can wait til mid-september and get the elemental designs Kx-series which "should" eat up those audiobahns in sound quality. i say "should" because i have not heard it (obviously), but ED is a SQ company so i wouldn't be surprise if the Kx sounds as good or better than the alpine type S (maybe R?). 3 years warranty, great customer service, $85 for 12" and $75 for 10", what more could u ask for?

Either go with the Adire Audio, or check out some Image Dynamics...they are awesome too. The IDMAX series is just too good.

finally it gets some recognition here.

anyone wanna come down here and witness the monster is more than welcome to. i'll eventually have it in ported box (about 3 cubes). most likely an interchangable port (from 29hz to 45hz) and a port cover that i can use (put something in and whala, sealed box). i cover the port and its an IB setup

Ill come down and whitness your IDMAX and crush you with ma dual 15" HC ported 8.5 Cubes tuned at 38hz 1000rms @ 1 ohm each sub.




If you want bang for your buck, and your not really into car audio, hook yourself up with some pioneers or MTX or even some punch rockfords, they are cheap and pump well with a small amp, anything bigger like whati got you end up spending way to much, but its so loud you can kill people by rolling past them on the street

Let's see...(2) 15"s vs. (1) 12". Pretty much a no-brainer noob. Pull your head out of your ass and come with something real. You wanna compare? Put one 12" HC up against that IDMAX 12". Then we can see what's what.

ok, here's the bottom line, if you want the best go with harman international companies. I'd def suggest Infinity Perfect 10's and a JBL BP600.1 you'll get incredible sound, i know i have perfect 12s of my own with a BP600.1. As for price go to www.sounddomain.com pick out what you want put it in you cart, then go to www.etronics.com and find the stuff, go to sounddomain hit the price match guarentee and fill out the form. The subs would be about $110 a peice and the amp a lil under $200, and you'll be buying from an authorised dealer well hope that helps later

I hate to say this, but the IDMAX 12" bangs harder than most 15", but one on one. I don't know about 1 IDMAX 12" against 2 15" subs, but yes the IDMAX is one of the best out there and I give major praise to it.

Haha im just messin boys,

The IDMAX are sick subs, the HC's arn't amazing but they sure lay a wallape, i like them good sc and good spl. Yeah the se's would prolly compete, 2 12 se's vs 2 15 hc's would be a good comp. I dunno about the idmax's in spl, im sure you can get them pumping good but they are more sq orientated?

no my friend. i got a single 15" RE SE that vs. a single 15" HC would be good. of course the SE would whip the HC anyways.

the IDMAX was built for SQ, but it just happens to get loud too. biggest cone area of any 12" sub with over 25mm of xmax, yea..it'll get loud.
