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.

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.
