His budget is 10k and that's impossible to get one new idq with B&W in india at 10k.

Ajay go with IDv3 sub will cost you lill more then 10k but is a good buy at that price or you can even go with the CTX series sub but they are SVC sub.

He is planning to import it, thus I suggested the IDQ.

From what i read sometime back, RE Audio also makes good SQ subs.
Why only a 10" DVC?
Why not a 12" or a SVC?

Whatever sub you choose.
Do See to it that your amp is 300wrms @ 2Ω and 200wrms @ 4Ω

Firstly see whether you want to play it at 2 ohm / 4 ohm.

If at 2 ohm, then a 4Ω DVC or a 2Ω SVC ( Don't know whether there are any)
If at 4 ohm, then a 2Ω DVC or a 4Ω SVC

Want to play at 2 ohms so a DVC with 4 ohms each voice coils will do.
10" as dont want big box in boot, small sealed box will be great as i have a hatchback(Swift).

Indian market is really hopeless tried hard for almost a month and gave it up and went the way i always goes for other things, bought Infinity REF1062 online, i know it's not the best i can get but still i am satisfied with the product what i am getting, atleast it fulfills all my needs, paid 89$ for he woofer and 85$ for shipping it to India.

Of that list the ID sub is most reputed but still my question is have you heard any/all of these subs? If you buy something based on here say you might not get what you want.

Invinsible · 25th August 2009, 16:59

I Suppose you have already bought the sub.
I would have suggested you to look at the Boston Acoustics G2, G5 subs. They require just .5 cu.ft volume along with the sub displacement, with very good build quality, goes low and loud.

Ajaybiz · 26th August 2009, 10:20

Half of them i heard at my installers place and happy with the brand i went for, ID was best on this lot but again the model i was looking for is not available in India and abroad its not widely available via online shops.

Which ID sub you liked ? All the ID sub and products are available in India that to with B&W.

Ajaybiz · 28th August 2009, 11:22

ID10D4 v.3 is not available they have only ID10D2 v.3 which dosent fits in my requirment.

Ajaybiz · 31st August 2009, 19:53

Got this Infinity Reference series 1062 subwoofer from US, Paid 89$ for the sub and 85$ for shipping it to India via UPS and bloody its damn fast flat 5 days and got it at door steps along with duty paid by UPS, which we have to pay them before taking delivery(cash on delivery kinda).Duty is flat 30% on the cost.This weekends installation will go in after that will put further details.

Need Sams expert comments on this product.
