Basically I wanna get 2 12's and want the best bang for the buck, I will run a good amp on anyof them that will be the max RMS wattage. I have heard alot of good things about the Image Dynamics and they come with a full warranty but I have no experience with them!

Feel free to leave comments too!

 

ID12v3 or Type R. Leaning towards the ID12v3 more though. Simply because of quality, customer service (you cant even email alpine), and warranty. Not to mention a tad better SQ? Hrm..

 

W3's get those. They hit HARD, all you need is a good amp and they will hit.

 

yeah but know where around me sells JL's and there are no online dealers w/ warranties! And they cost a **** pot full!

I would like to here more about Image Dynamics from people!

 

How does 2 12" ID12v.3's with a US Acoustics 2150 (450x1rms) sound. Do you think this will be a decent sounding setup?

Some +'s to this are:
1. Image Dynamics come with full factory warranty! ($120 each)
2. Us Acoustics amp is $150 with a 3-Year warranty!

 

Where are you getting Type-R's for $100??

 

http://www.ikesound.com but they have no warranty, that is why I am going for the Image Dynamics cause they have a full factory warranty!

 

Anybody ever heard anyhting good about MA Audio? I found a deal for 2 12" MA112xi subs for $93 new! It doesn't have a waranty but for that price it is hard to pass up! What do you guys think? Are htey worth it? Or should I just get the Image Dynamics?

MA audio and Image dynamics should never be used in the same sentences. If you're looking for unaccurate fart boomy bass, get the MA Audio. If you're looking for Great sound quality and very good output, get the Image dynamics. I'm tell you right now, out of the ones above, the ID is the way to go. IMO, they are worth more than $200, and when you can get it for $120 plus warranty, it's a hell of a deal.

 

ok thats all i needed to know i am gonna get the ID's with the warranty! THanx for all the input eveyone!

Could you recommend me some good amps too, I have been looking at the US Acoustics listed above with the 3-year warranty and great price but I would like to pair these subs with a great amp! Suggestions? Particular Models?

 

Yup...I'll be taking the credit for another ID conversion!!

Check out sounddomain's deals on Phoenix Gold Tantrum amps. They have some great ones on sale. I wouldn't get the US acoustics personally...

 

did u get credit for converting me too? i'm also going to get an IDv3.

 

rcurley55, are you going IB? if so, do i get credit? :D j/k

IB max?

 

clint, just get one ID max and port it right.
just my opinion.

 

I have the ID.

I recommend it for its price.

 

you guys mean to tell me the ID12v.3's are better than Solobaric L5 or L7? I have heard the L5's and they sounded really loud!

 

what do you want, loud or good?

I'm thinking about getting these. Promo or not, Xtant is HIGH quality.

Kicker, Phoenix Gold, Infinity, Xtant, Audiobahn, Eclipse, MB Quart

Budget ($) is the final decision.
