Here is the direct LINK

These are the specs for the subwoofer used in my previous post....

Now this little guy claims it works in a sealed box volume: 0.15 cubic feet!

I have read good and bad things about it, the down side it's the Top Mount Depth of 4 3/16" for my install.

Maybe our friend Palmer has some imput about this little one!

What is the contrast between this one and the I6SW?

I'm guessing...

Sensitivity and Mounting Dept. (about an inch more for the JL)

JL Audio 6W3v3-4 80.49 dB at 1 watt

I6SW 90 dB at 2.83 volts/1meter

My translation would be the JL is not as efficient as the I6SW and needs a lot more power.

Please add and/or correct me if I'm wrong.

I took out the Camber kit, no more uneven wear on the rear tires.

Uneven wear on tires produces lots of noise and if too much some vibrations.

I'm was able to squeeze the rubber rings a little bit more into the springs, this increases the spring rate and without a sub-woofer box in the trunk, the Yaris handles much better.

You're looking at about 87-88 dB at 1W/1M on the Imagine. So essentially it'd be more than twice as loud (edging closer to three times) given that it's the same general cone area. I'd estimate that the I6SW is not only cheaper but it can fit into the same sealed enclosure and go ported and bandpass (not that you have to worry about the latter). The XMAX on the JL is 1mm more but given the difference in sensitivity, that JL still won't stand a chance.

That's what I thought

did you have a chance to ask Jim and order a I6SW? should I call him tomorrow?

D.

sqcomp · 03-22-2011, 02:47 AM

I'm not going to see Jim until Wednesday night.

I would call him tomorrow, yes. Mention that you'd like to order the Hybrid I6SW and have him make a nice trim ring for it, all flushed and everything.

With the being said, would you mind if we made some video of it? I would like to give it some break in time in our sound room for a night. Perhaps even put it in a small sealed enclosure and, like I mentioned, shoot some video of it in action.

Thoughts?

sickpuppy1 · 03-22-2011, 09:35 PM

Hey SQ, Whats your thoughts on Eric and Matt leaving ID ? Any ideas on Eric's next project?

ALL IN THE NAME OF SCIENCE AND SQ

PS. I called Jim, I told him I wanted an I6SW and he was going to call me back.

Well...apparently Eric couldn't get the other major partner to sell to him. I'm not quite sure of Matt's connection.

I know the shop is already liquidating the ID stuff. I'm also hearing that the rights to the compression horns are leaving ID as well...That doesn't bode well.

sickpuppy1 · 03-22-2011, 11:24 PM

He apparently has plans under way for his new "endeavor" and in no way is he giving up his love of sound. He stated on another site Matt is no longer with ID and is going to work with him. So basically, he may not own ID anymore,but he will resurface with a new "project". He seems to be a genuinely good guy and they wont keep him down. Never know, He may have had some new ideas that never came to light since he knew this was coming........

sqcomp · 03-23-2011, 12:07 AM

It's too bad, I know that Scott could probably use Matt on the development of his woofer line...

sqcomp · 03-24-2011, 12:11 AM

God help me derick, I just picked up a bit one for the system.

OHHH NO!

what are you going to do now?

D.

sqcomp · 03-24-2011, 02:09 AM

...I'm going to have a full 1/3 octave EQ'ing on each speaker, twice as much T/A processing, and 48 dB slopes. There's more of course but, you get the point.

sickpuppy1 · 03-24-2011, 06:59 AM

right about then, i saw SQ doing this pelvic thrust thing and going ,"can ya feel it? huh? can ya feel it!!??" LOL
