Sealed and Ported, Driver-Matched Cabinets

Image Dynamics drivers are bought for accuracy, and the cabinet decides whether they get to show it. Every enclosure on this page is cut in Tullahoma, Tennessee, to the published parameters of the specific Image Dynamics driver it names, in a sealed alignment or a ported one solved for that driver.

The range runs 8 through 15 inch: sealed cabinets in single and dual, plus ported wedges and ported down-fire cabinets for the ID, IDQ, IDQS and IDMAX lines. The loaded builds arrive with the driver already mounted; the rest are cut for a driver you already own.

Sealed and ported Image Dynamics enclosures in stock from 8 to 15 inch, in Performance Optimized and Professional Series, standard, wedge and down-fire.

Cut, assembled and finished in Tullahoma, Tennessee, to the parameters Image Dynamics publishes for each driver. Polyfill pre-installed on every sealed build.

Driver parameters are taken from Image Dynamics published data. We stock Image Dynamics subwoofers and cut enclosures to those figures.

Image Dynamics Enclosures by Size and Build

Cabinets are cut per driver model rather than per nominal size. Use this for the shape of the range, then match the model number named on the product page.

Shared across every row: Langboard Elite MDF cut on ShopSabre routers in Tullahoma, Tennessee. Plush black carpet. A Proline X ABS and carbon fibre composite terminal cup with stainless hardware, pre-wired in 12-gauge OFC. Polyfill pre-installed on the sealed builds. Construction method varies by series and is stated on each product page.

Sealed Is the Reference, Ported Is the Option

The sealed cabinets are cut for control and low distortion, which is what these drivers are bought for, and polyfill is pre-installed on every one because the fill is part of the tuning rather than an accessory. The ported wedges and ported down-fire cabinets are solved from the same published parameters for the buyer who wants more output, with the tuning frequency stated on each listing.

Buy the Box, the Driver, or Both

The loaded builds ship with the matching Image Dynamics driver already mounted and wired. The rest are cut for a driver you already own. We stock Image Dynamics subwoofers separately as well, so whichever half you still need, it is here.

Two Build Standards, Three Shapes

Performance Optimized covers most of the range, with Professional Series above it. The sealed builds are standard front-firing and wedge, the wedge tapered on the rear panel so the baffle stays vertical and the box sits flush against a seat back or trunk wall. The ported builds come as wedges and as down-fire cabinets that aim the cone at the floor.

Every sealed cabinet ships with polyfill already installed; the ported cabinets ship without it, because fill would move the tuning. Most are single-driver cabinets, with sealed duals across both IDQ sizes and across the IDMAX 10, 12 and 15.

The bulk of the range

Nine of the fourteen. Cut to one driver on a 1.5 inch double baffle, in standard and wedge forms across 10 and 12 inch.

Cut to one driver

Professional Series

IDMAX builds

Heavier baffle and bracing work for the drivers that justify it. The build to choose when the subwoofer is the centrepiece rather than an addition.

Driver fitted

These ship with the Image Dynamics driver already mounted and wired, which removes the matching question entirely.

Baffle thickness and construction method vary by series. Each product page states how that cabinet is built and which Image Dynamics model it was cut for.

Image Dynamics Subwoofer Box Questions

Which Image Dynamics subwoofers do these boxes fit?

The cabinets here are cut for Image Dynamics subwoofers in 10, 12 and 15 inch across their subwoofer lines. Each product page names the exact model it was designed around. Match the model number rather than the nominal size, because two 12 inch drivers from different lines want different net volumes.

Do you sell Image Dynamics subwoofers as well?

Yes. We stock Image Dynamics subwoofers alongside these enclosures, so you can buy the driver and the cabinet together or separately. Some of the cabinets here already come loaded with the matching driver.

Are these sealed or ported?

Both. The sealed cabinets are the reference for these drivers, because Image Dynamics subwoofers are chosen for accuracy and control and a sealed alignment preserves that: tighter transient response and a gentle roll-off in a smaller cabinet. The ported wedges and ported down-fire cabinets are for the buyer who wants more output from the same driver, each solved from its published parameters with the tuning stated on the listing.

What is the difference between Performance Optimized and Professional?

Performance Optimized cabinets are cut to one driver on a 1.5 inch double baffle and make up most of the range. Professional Series goes further on baffle construction and internal bracing. Both are cut to the same published parameters; the Professional build is more cabinet around them.

Should I choose a wedge or a standard cabinet?

It is a fitment decision, not an acoustic one. Within the same alignment both are cut to the same volume for a given driver. A wedge tapers on the rear panel so it sits flush against a seat back; a standard cabinet is a straightforward box. Measure the space and pick the shape that suits it.

Do these ship with polyfill?

The sealed ones do. Every sealed enclosure we build ships with polyfill already installed. You do not need to add any and you should not remove it, because the fill is part of how the cabinet was tuned. Ported cabinets ship without polyfill, because fill would move the tuning.
