Question for sound guys
 

Can anyone recommend a 10" sub that is good for Rock music. I want the hard base hits, not the low echo type. Sealed box preferred and in the price range of say $300

Thanks,

Chad

I am going to be using 2 Image Dnamics IDMax 10" DVC subs in my 71. I currently have their IDQ 12" sub in my Cherokee and I was VERY VERY impressed by it. The IDQ is their SQ sub but it hits WAY harder then my old JLw3 12". and it is a super clean sound to. The IDMax is kind of an SQL type sub and I have heard them before in simple installs and they were incredible. Plus you get an IDMax pretty loud without having to throw a TON of power at it. I will be running a JL 1000/1 if I can find a place to mount it well, otherwise I will be using a JL 500/1 since it is significatly smaller.

The IDMax is about $399 and the IDQ is about $159 for the 10-inch versions

Nope, but I can say I competed for 10 years IASCA and USAC using only 10's ;)

IMHO, you can get better acoustics out of a 10" vs. a 12", 13", 15", etc......

JL Audio is all you ever need for subs.

10W1v2-4 10W1v2-8
amp 2 of them right and you can't lose.

I will be using a pair of Kicker 10" L7 squares. I might end up using a pair of 8's, but I will run the 10's if I have the room.

I'm still a few months out from a stereo, I want the weather to heat up so I can do some fiberglass work.

:agree: The L7's are hard to beat.

The IDQ is a great sub I recomend them, I also like the Diamond Audio d6's.

What would you use to power them? How many watts?

Thanks,

I have had great luck with a 10" Cerwin Vega "free air" sub. No box required.

I'm a huge fan of JL also. Been using them for years.

Have a buddy all up in the audio gear, we've built a killer system in his car for about 3k, custom racks, enclosures, massive amps, etc - all JL audio. I got a pair of IDQ 10's from him, driving them with a sound stream amp - in my truck - I have about 1200 total in my system and it kicks his system all over the place (for the price difference). The IDQs are fricken awesome!, hard hitting and quick and sharp - none of that -bllloommmpff stuff you get with the bigger sizes.... and that's my limited .02.
