image dynamics ID12 D2 V.3

WOW, these things pump out some bass. It certainly helps that I have an amp that over pushes them. It is a Sundown audio SAZ-250 amp. The amp weighs 20 lbs so you gotta know it pushes. There is no way I can turn it up past 3/4 volume without experiencing ear pain yet the subs seem to enjoy it.

Image Dynamics ID 12 D2 V3

Purchased the sub a month ago but had to wait on the review until install. Been into the car audio scene off & on for over 20 years & installed & used all size subs from 8"-18". Previous "serious install had all JL equipment to include 4 JL15w6 with 4000+ real watts. This time I still wanted deep & accurate bass response but wanted to seriously down size the space used up & the dent in my bank account. Came across the ID 12 for under $90 & jumped on it. Not many people will remember the car audio icon Richard Clark & his 87 Buick Grand National which dominated the sound quality category in IASCA for quite a while. Mr.Clark used Image Dynamics drivers way back in the late 80's & early 90's. That should show many who didn't know how long Image Dynamics has put out some of the best speakers you can get your hands on. Installed the sub in my 2012 Ram quad cab under the back seat using another outstanding product from Fox Accoustisc " 1.87 cf ported & tuned to 35HZ & powered with a Fosgate 500XD @ 4 ohm. This will not shake things off the neighbors walls but it will get loud & deep with excellent sound quality. If you have a Ram, this cambo is highly recommended! If you want more SPL, get the dual 12 box from Fox. Sonic's outstanding customer service & selectin is some of the best you will find.

Incredible

By faaaar the best subwoofer i've ever owned for the money!!! I eventually upgraded. Im happy that I came across this sub in a local store. I had never heard of image before. Only owned Jl audio. I had 2 12 w3v2's at the time. I figued for the price i could try 2 of them out. I ended up selling one soon after. It was much louder than I expected. SQ was a bit better than the Jl w3's, The spl was easily louder. I played around with the setup for a little while, and I was sold to image at that point. Can't say enough about this company. I'd still own Jl, but not really comparable to image once you figure the price difference.

Awesome!!!!

I have mine hooked up to an Earthquake Audio PH500.1. I bought a dual two ohm and am running the full 500watts out of my amp @ 4 ohms. Takes every bit of it too. The cone travel is outrageous and my trunk is taking a beating. Glad I made this choice.

Thumping sub

Grwat subwoofer very impressed for the price. Ihave it in a sealed box and it rattles the back panels and seats. Great clear sound and rich bass. Just get it.

info

great subwoofer for the money. sounds good. a huge step above entry level.

Not bad

I bought this box about 6 months ago, and it's not a bad box, but it could have been built a little better and cleaner looking. The edges of the carpet where they cut out for the sub was starting to come up after I took it out of the box.

Good for starting out

This is a good box for a less powerful sub. It gets the job done.

nice sound great bass

this looks almost exactly like the one that i recently bought from sonicelectronix so i wanted to post a review to let everyone know how it does. To start off i went with this and the pioneer champion series pro sub because im limited on space but the box does perform very well with the sub but i do think it would sound alittle better in a slightly bigger box but dont let size fool you because this little box bangs trust me if your limited on space then this is the one for your small compact and awesome sound and bass pros:great sound awesome bass cons:none

Dont hesitate, Just Buy!

This box was a great product. One of the best systems that I've ever owned! Dont bother trying to make your own - this saves you time and money.

Does the job

Havent had any issues. Gives the boom i need.

Not totally sealed, but a definite win.

Easy to connect, quality materials and decent looks make this a win. I can hear air moving out of it with my 2500 Watt peak nx12d Boss sub.

=(

So I've had this box for about two weeks, and I'm not ashamed of it. I have a 12" Kicker CVX and 750 rms watts goin to it. It hasn't failed me once I got it working. But the terminals inside the box gave me troubles. They're made out of cheap cheap thin metal that felt like plastic. After I finally figured it out it was 2 hours l8r. I just took out the terminals and hooked the wires straight up, but I expected a good electrical connection but apparently not. Other than that hassle I like the box.

this box does not use true 3/4" wood, its 11/16"

decent quality, but wood is undersized. if using a high power woofer this might be a problem. im using this box for a Image Dynamics IDQ12 with low power so this wont be a problem.

Excellent product!

I ordered this product for my boyfriend for Christmas and he loved it! The description is accurate and it was of high quality. I would reccomend this product to anyone!

Great box for the price

Have a Rockford Fosgate R2D2-12 mounted in it and it does the job for me. Regarding other reviews that say the box is too thin and won't handle higher power. Define what "higher power" is so your reviews can be helpful. The RF sub can handle 250W RMS (500 max) mated to an appropriate amp. I don't think it will blow the sides off. 1000W RMS maybe but then you shouldn't be buying the Sonic house brand sub box if you're running that kind of power. The box is very sturdy and does the job quite nicely for 250W RMS.

great value for the price

Is a good box for the price and with the house speakers it is a great value and sounds good too.

Very nice underrated 2 channel amp.

I bought this amp to power a set of Infinity 6 1/2 component set. The power is great, if not shocking. The fact that it is rated at a real world 12.5 volts is a HUGE plus with me. Amps rated at 14.4 volts I avoid because I want to know what it produces at 12.5 volts, when the car is off. All amps produce more power at 14.4 volts. The looks of the amplifier are great as well because flash is not my thing. Controls are placed thoughtfully and easy to adjust. There are also RCA outs which allow you to daisy chain additional amps with ease. Though the amp gets a little warm, it never goes into thermal protection (I am pushing it pretty hard in 2 ohms) This amp is best suited for persons that love getting MORE than what they paid for without sacrificing quality.
