Review of a 12" Incriminator Audio Lethal Injection Sub!!
So I took the plunge, bought the sub, he obtained quickly from Incriminator, and when I got it, he was dead ****. I like the fact that it is fully charged actions, so you get all the new features without leaving your pocket. So I thought the box I had was good enough for the sub, then swapped, and wow. Even in a whole new (super stiff and the need to break) and lowered the gain was in a loud voice. Songs forward with FI Q never sounded so good, I was completely amazed at how loud it was.
And after an hour or break it, I realized that he got louder and sounded so clear. I guess the SQ finally started and I fell in love with the submarine. I had my share of submarines, and it is certainly the best. If 1000rms or more, I kept the Q, but I like my Nine.5 amps.
So thanks to Nick and the team time Incriminator *** and products, and offer impressive support. You have a customer for life, and I praise these products. Now for the photos and videos

Dynaudio MW182
First off I would like to Don Amann (6spdcoupe) for tirelessly helping me with this endeavor! Don was able to spend a whole weekend with minimal sleep making sure that these drivers were able to be installed properly. Don's attention to detail and skillful installation ability was awesome. I highly recommend using his services; whether for purchasing Dynaudio or Tru Technology products among others or for getting a high quality installation. Don will make sure you are taken care of!
So on to the review! First off this is all in a car that was totaled. Over 1000 man hours of installation time was spent in getting the Alty to where it was.
System Composition:
2005 Nissan Altima 3.5SE
Head Unit -- Sony ES C-90
Processor -- Sony ES XDP4000X
Amps -- Two Arc Audio SE 2150, Two Arc SE 2300
Cable -- IXOS IXOTICA Interconnects and Gti Speaker Wire
Front Stage Drivers -- Dynaudio ESOTAR MD330D, ESOTAR2 650, ESOTEC MW182 (I did have an eD 9kv.3 as a front sub in the center under dash prior to the 182's)
Subwoofers -- Two Arc Audio Flatlines
Driver Impression: The basket is a low profile stamped steel design. This is not the claw like forged basket like most of the other drivers by Dynaudio. IMO opinion this makes it much more installer friendly allowing them to be installed in a shallow location. The flange is two pieced with the gasket made of rubber and is able to be removed. The screw holes are nice and adequate. The terminals are easy to access and sturdy. The cone is the normal proprietary poly cone with the integrated dust cap. All in all this is a quality Dynaudio product. The Danes know how to build a great speaker.
Installation: The driver was mounted to a highly damped door on a mdf baffle. There is an estimated 50 sq ft of B-Quiet Ultimate on each door. A rubber deflection pad was installed behind the driver. The pads are design to keep standing waves from returning back through the speaker causing nasty spikes in frequency response. I will never install another car with out these. 11 gauge IXOS Gti Gamma Geometry speaker wire was ran from one of the SE2300's feeding each driver 330 watts. The plastic inner door skin was carved out for clearance tolerances.
Listening: For critical listening I have a few songs that I like to use specifically for mid-bass. The song Prodigal Blues by Billy Idol from his Charmed Life disc is a great lower mid-bass upper sub-bass track. The song starts off with a low rumble containing pulsing electronic drum beats. The rumble calls for ambience and authority which the 182's exhibited effortlessly. The MW182's were able to take care of this without any problems. Normally my Flatlines need to be brought into the mix, they did not this time. The second song was Money for Nothing by Dire Straits. This song has an awesome drum solo with toms. A few things to point out, one a more precise stereo image was present over the single sub, two authority is exponential on each hit, and finally the articulation of each drum beat was spot on. If reproduced properly this song should send chills up and down your spine. It definitely did, I could have listened to that track over and over!! After listening to these specific track I listened to a variety of genre's of music. Each genre asked the drivers to perform in a certain way, one thing that stuck out was the articulation of the instruments. Kicks drums, bass guitar, and other bass producing instruments all became more defined. These drivers made music even more enjoyable.
In conclusion I have another driver for life. I do not need to by another mid-bass driver unless this one fails. My front stage is pure awesome. From 20k to 30hz I am ear to ear smiles. These drivers are made for creating music accurately and honestly. The cello, contra bass, and bass clarinet all sound like they would if I were there for a live performance. Lets be honest for regular pop rock music I don't need subwoofer with the MW-182's upfront, very few producers are mixing freqs that low. Then again there is the IASCA disc that I have to perform
Bottom Line -- This must be your next mid-bass purchase!!!

Budget Bass Comparison: 88120 vs MAW-15 vs 13Ov.2
Eclipse 88120 vs MAW-15 vs eD 13Ov.2
As most members here, I switch things up quite often when it comes to my system. Every month or two I was getting new subs, a new amp, new headunit, etc.
But just recently I think I've settled on the system I have now, which consists of....
Alpine 9855
eD NINe.5
Eclipse 88120 sub
Premier 720PRS comps
Knu/Kicker wiring
and a whole lot of damplifier/R-blox sound deadening.
Of course, I will probably get a different sub sooner than later, but I'm pretty sure I'm sticking with the 720PRS comps, NINe.5, and 9855. For my budget, I don't think I could do much better than any of those components for my system, and my listening preferences.
But over the last 6 months or so, I've had the opportunity to test out 3 excellent budget subwoofers. In this comparison I will evaluate Sound Quality, Build Quality, SPL, and Price.
I'm not a professional reviewer by any means, nor do I know all the technical specifications on subwoofers, but I'll do my best. So cut me some slack when it comes to the tech specs.
Note: Both the MAW and 13Ov.2 were ran off an Alpine MRD-M605 (650 rms at 2-ohms). The 88120 is currently being powered by the sub channel on my NINe.5 at 2-ohms (about 550 watts). And when rating on "SPL", that is in respect to the amount of power the sub is getting. We all know your two HDC18's will get louder.

Hertz HSK165
First off they are in a 1999 Pontiac Firebird in the stock locations. They are powered by a Kicker KX650.4.
Well when I first got them in I had to set em by ear. And they sounded good. Didn't think they sounded 300 dollars good. But I finally got a DMM and set it with that. Well I still didn't think I got all my money worth. So today well a couple hours ago I was tweaking the amp a little and turned off the x-over on the amp. Well the speakers came ALIVE!!!! The bass output is astounding. I def. need some deadening in my doors now. Really really bad.
I believe they are by far the best sounding comps I've ever heard.. ever. They get pretty loud, and the louder they get, the better they sound. The are so well blended. I've got them ran passive right now. But in maybe a week or so I will be setting them up to run active and I can't wait. If anybody has some tuning ideas for me feel free to PM me. Well quit reading and go get a set already.

10" Image Dynamics IDQv3d4
I have my MRI takes about 500.1 500rms @ 2Ohm. I use 1 ft ^ 3 sealed. It's in my 1989 Cutlass Calais sedan. They are found in the trunk all the way to the seat in front of the trunk. New cd I made some test with some of these songs under you suggest, some Jeezy, and David Mathews now. This is really amazing. It is very accurate with a quick response. The bass is very simple, even some Mudvayne and System of a Down. Jeezy is strong my surprise, I'll probably get that measures just for fun. Minimums are low, not just push as much air as my 15 "IDQ so take a little getting used to, but the truth, is fine with me. As for David, which is the more I listen too, it sounds so natural * ** * and I live to love this.
The build quality is quite exceptional. I would say that it looks almost like a mini-MAX with the construction of the same quality. The terminals are woven into the spider, only the build quality very high. I think if they explode, you can now get recognition for them. Everything seems to be dismantled.
Great subwoofer overall, for me it's the best of both worlds because I did not find any sense to have a super high DD. I wouldnt mind competing with another car, but not a daily driver. I prefer a more concert type music where it melts together, and that makes it does. I had great before you even start DDS 2 12 "MTX 7500 in a MB Quart amp @ 1ohm 1200rms I think it could have been 1000rms. Boks were two cubes per driver allowed to 38Hz. I went to that a ten sealed with no problem at all.

I'm only giving them 2.73cuft. each of the airspace, and they require 3.3 3.6cuft air. (Is it going to be a problem)
But then my Diesel Audio NSH 1.3000D-1ohm stable ... @ 2ohms and running right now ... B / CI used to run 0.5 ohms @
Just let me know what you heard or know of them

PG RSD 65 6.5cs
First published that look good and tweets are many different ways to mount. which is good because I put in the stock crossovers places seem heavier than PPC, but not so well together.
And now for the sound .... they have more mid-bass to Rainbows is not yet sealed, but they do not even come close to the section of clarity, I had to change all my settings and it still does not have the loan. Everything seems hard for me. but was it worth 100? enough, but I would get rainbows if I had money, yes, I would. I hope some day, it brightens AIL

Jbl P1022
I am in Canada, so the price is probably higher than it should have, but otherwise I'm impressed.
Configuration:
Four P1022 JBL in a sealed chamber, about 0.75 to 1 ^ 3 ', all in a long box.
I changed the power supply to RF 1501BD.
Subs self-muscled, or at least appear to be, each of which weighs about 32 pounds.
Installing them in the car for the first time I was very disappointed, the 1501BD is not changed that much, and submarines, were not high at all. But with the amplifier cool, I could definitely hear the potential.
I finally found the instructions in mod 1501BD drive 1ohm, and he did, the result was surprising.
Listen to a variety of music, which actually carry out hidden lines, deep bass, for example, Megadeth Trust. What an awesome sound with plenty of time for music, making the battery Cryptopsy feel like a machine gun bass Eminem Kim, as the pain is almost unbearable.
Overall I would say that these subs are awesome, especially for the price in the U.S., probably spent $ 300 - $ 350 in Canada, I know you are going for much less on ebay, or that CarDomain is an authorized dealer.
I was very impressed with these, you definitely hit the bottom, then two of 15 (RFP 3415), which I used previously
Sorry if the review is awesome, its my first, be gentle
