Got a New Toy ......
Got new sub. Wanted something lighter weight than the w7. The W7 weighs total of 120lbs with the ported pox.
I bought a MB Quart 12" Premium with sealed box. http://www.mbquart.com/en/produkte/c...php?nr=pwh_302
will post a review after the sub breaks in properly. So on Saturday or so I will give a review.

I will be doing sealed at 1.2cu ft. I am trying to save some weight in the car. I also have a Eclipse Aluminum 12" thats in the TL running in a sealed box right now and will install the MB tonight. I bought the Mb quart to see how it compares to the Eclipse. Most likely I will keep one of them and sell the other in black market.
Hows that IDMAX, How does it compare to the TDX 10" I bought from you.

Sounds like a plan.
The IDMAX is great. It still does not compare to the TDX setup in my former TL. But, that box was ported, built to spec. The box I built for the IDMAX is sealed and a small box, around .7. That is all I could fit in my space. It still sounds great. Of course, I ran the TDX with 1,100 watts from the Memphis Belle. I was running 525 to the IDMAX and it sounded great. Hopefully, my Audison amp will be here today and I can get back to running it. The Audison will give it around 500 or so. For whatever reason, I have not been able to build a system as good as the one I had in the TL. Went thru the F-150 with tons of different setups and nothing was as good. I ran a Stereo Integrity Mag 12" and Rainbow Germaniums that was pretty darn close but still not quite. The MDX is getting there. I am thinking about swapping the Chameleons for the new XS comps from ID. But, it's still good.

Yes, it does. Kinda limiting compared to the older Eclipse units I ran in the TL. That 8 volt preout sure was nice. I tried some Zapco Reference with the Symbilink and that technology is awesome. More volume with no more gain equals awesome. I actually ran the models right below the Hex. Right before they changed to the new models that are out now. They were awesome. I had Hex's in other vehicles and thought the models right below were better. I never could get the Hex's to sound good.

After changing out from 10 differ alpine units I went to eclipse. After the 9815 I got the Eclipse 8454 (8volt). The Sq was better and more volume. Now I got the 8053 with the balance box that is 16volts. Holy moly I didnt think SQ could get any better but I was wrong. And after that I upgraded my speaker wire in the front doors. I am running Stinger Expert 14 gauge from the Crossover straight to the amp.

this thing is a beast. The output is amazing and clear. I must say in the first hour of listening it just blew me away. I never like MB quart woofer until now. When I say this thing I had to have it. Here is a couple pics of it. Its no W7 but I must say it competes along the line of the w6v2 in SQ and SPL.

I wish I had more room. I would love to go to a 12". But, I would have to give up cargo space to do it. The 10" IDMAX on 500 watts from my new Audison is sounding better and better though.

I got the 10w6v2 from a audio shop. Got a great deal only payed $320 with tax and JL grill. Now time to get a ported box built for it. Pics of it next to its big brother.
Always buy JL authorized, heard the JL stuff from ebay has serial #s ripped off. And some serial #s are below the spider.
