Other than the Ben Milne Love Parade I can't find any real reasons not to give it a shot. I've been looking around and not that much has changed since I was last reading up on car audio stuff two years ago. I was kinda expecting 15 new bandwagon sub brands but there were only one or two (Ascendant Audio for one).

I'd honestly rather go with an IDQ 12, but I keep coming back to what amp I would use to power it. Really, the deal they've got on the nine.2 amp is hard to beat, and I already have essentially the same amp (Avionixx 400.2) and like it. I figure I'm going to go for the package deal and then sell off the sub if I really don't like it for some reason. I've heard some of eD's old stuff and liked it, so I think it will be fine. Still, if anybody has some suggestions on a good ~200 dollar amp to push around 400 watts, I'd appreciate it, just to have some options.

 

good luck finding an IDQ 12

from what i can tell, they seem to not exist. i know the place i got my first idq, http://www.mmxpress.com/ hasn't had them for months.

 

Image Dynamics is going through some sort of change...they are very difficult to get ahold of, and product does seem scarce. They have a forum on their website, and I saw some kind of post about all the new stuff being behind schedule...probably also want more of the old stuff gone, as well.

Also, per their site, sounddomain.com is the only authorized internet retailer. So, they will probably have stuff before mmpress

Their stuff does show up on ebay farily often, and they even sell some of it themselves. I picked up my ID horns on ebay, and have been trying to reach them about becoming a dealer, but so far, no luck.

Sounddomain had the IDQ 12s on their site just two days ago, but I just went to grab the link and they're gone now. Guess that's not really an option, heh.
